The True Beauty of Your Life: Living Wabi Sabi

Taro Gold inspires and enlightens with Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your Life, a blend of Eastern wisdom, feng shui, and the movement toward simplicity. Wabi Sabi is a Japanese expression meaning "wisdom in natural simplicity" and helps us to see the beauty in imperfection, discovering that our unique flaws can lead us to our greatest strengths and treasures.

In Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your Life, Taro Gold shares the paradoxical first lesson that no one is perfect--in fact, we are all perfectly imperfect. Wabi Sabi is a universal ideal of beauty that celebrates the basic, unique, and imperfect parts of our lives. It is the comfortable joy we felt as children, happily singing off key, creatively coloring outside the lines, and mispronouncing words with gusto. On a deeper level, Wabi Sabi is the profound awareness of our oneness with all life and the environment, including a deep awareness of the choices we make each day and the power to accept or reject each moment of our lives.

The book encourages us to appreciate every moment, no matter how imperfect, for this moment is our life. When we reject this moment, we reject our life. We don't have to settle for this moment; we are free to steer a different course, but for now, this moment is ours, so we should be mindful to make the most of it.

Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your Life leads us to discover the true beauty of our lives, to know true joy here and now, and to reveal the most powerfully positive sides of imperfection. Illustrated with stunning yet simple watercolor art, it is a beautiful keepsake that is sure to become a beloved resource for wisdom in the joy of living.
