The Way of Nagomi: The Japanese Philosophy of Finding Balance and Peace in Everything You Do by Ken Mogi

This was an interesting book, and I learned a lot about Japanese culture and the concept of Nagomi. However, this book felt less of a self-help book and more like a history book wherein it exposed the idea of Nagomi and how it is expressed in Japanese cultural history, but didn't feel like it was actually providing any concrete tips or ways to incorporate it into everyday life. I think this book would have been improved with more direct action tips rather than a broad historical discussion. I really did learn a lot from this book, but I learned more about Japanese cultural history than I feel like I learned about the way of Nagomi. Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for this ARC.
