Ikigai

To learn the japanese way, you need to have accurate information about japan. Unfortunately, a lot of claims made about japanese culture are misinterpreted or outdated. Okinawa being the longest-lived prefecture, is one of them. In japan, okinawa was regarded as the land of longevity back in the 1980s when it was ranked high in the national ranking. Recently prefectures like nagano and shiga have ranked within the top three and gained the reputation of being long-lived prefectures. Ikigai is another one. It is nothing to do with the popular venn diagram. It isn't a framework in japan.
