The Japanese secret to being calmer and happier | BBC Global
Ichigo Ichie has been translated as "for this time only", "one time, one meeting" and "once in a lifetime".
This 16th-Century concept originated in tea ceremonies and martial arts and is still engrained in Japanese life today.
In the beautifully preserved village of Magone, along the ancient Nakasendo trail between Tokyo and Kyoto, Nina Otsubo Cataldo leads us through the essential steps of this everyday discipline.
