Synopsis of Every Day is a Good Day 15 life lessons I learned from tea
Discover how one of the most important Japanese traditions can be the starting point for great inner transformation.
Tea is one of the most fascinating Japanese traditions. Passed down from generation to generation, the steps of the ceremony were established by Buddhist monks in the 16th century and have a common objective: through simple gestures, we are invited to focus on a deep search for our inner self.
At first glance, it may seem out of touch with everyday life, but a closer look quickly shows us – as happened with Morishita Noriko, whose 15 lessons we will follow in this book – the true symbolism and enormous power of Tea to change our lives. When Morishita’s mother, then a young and insecure student, advised her to take a course on Tea, the protagonist of the real episodes described in these pages was suspicious and had no idea of the transformations that would occur in her life. However, in the first lessons, the results of the ceremony and meditation were felt.
Just as Noriko learned to overcome the obstacles that life brought her, this book will also be for us a true course of self-knowledge and transformation, towards a happier, balanced and true life, centered on the present moment and the power of now.
