Ikigai is Japanese concept meaning 'reason for being' it falls under the Positive Purpose domain in Positive Education. Research by Sone et al. (2008) studied over 40,000 participants and found that being able to articulate your ikigai had huge benefits to well-being. The most interesting one to us being leading a longer life! Sounds pretty good!
This week we have started to explore what are the things we love? What does the world need? We have been encouraging students to think deeply here beyond cats, video games and food! Although all important!
