Wabi-Sabi: Embracing Imperfect Beauty in Your Life

from Your Aha! Life · host Tonya Harris Cornileus

In this episode, I'm so happy to be back with you solo and I have a great topic to share: Wabi Sabi: Embracing Imperfect Beauty in Your Life. Wabi-Sabi is a Japanese term that grew out of a Japanese aesthetic for imperfect beauty or the "Zen of Things." I define (or try to anyway) the meaning of wabi-sabi and how you can embrace it in your daily life to overcome the paralysis of perfectionism and pursue your goals and dreams. I quote and share throughout the episode, Richard Powell, author of Wabi-Sabi Simple. He said, "Wabi-Sabi nurtures all that is authentic by acknowledging three simple realities:  Nothing lasts. Nothing is finished. Nothing is perfect. I repeat these three realities often throughout the episode and share examples. I also leave you with 6 practical ways you can practice wabi-sabi in your daily living.  Book Source: Koren, Leonard. Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers.

I really want to expand my reach to others who will benefit from the insight and inspiration I share through Your Aha! Life. Thank you so much.  With gratitude, Tonya
