Bibliotherapy in Bloom: Japanese Literature to Read This Spring
from Bibliotherapy with Bijal Shah
In today's episode, we’re immersing ourselves in the gentle, contemplative, and often transformative world of Japanese literature. As we step into the season of spring, a time of renewal, impermanence, and quiet growth, I can’t think of a better literary tradition to explore. We'll be diving into both Japanese fiction and nonfiction that can support our emotional wellbeing, offer perspective, and help us reconnect—with ourselves, with nature, and with others.Plus I share some helpful therapeutic practices to engage with to deepen your reading experience.
