🌿 Life Unbound: Exploring Ikigai – Moments That Matter

Ikigai (生き甲斐) is a Japanese concept often translated as “a reason for being.” In Japan, however, it is not about chasing success, titles, or a single life purpose. Ikigai lives in everyday moments — in routine, relationships, care, presence, and quiet satisfaction.

This MeetUp group is a Japanese-led discussion space exploring Ikigai in its authentic cultural context. It is not a workshop, coaching session, or motivational talk, but a calm environment for reflection, conversation, and meaningful connection.

Life Unbound grew from the belief that when we allow ourselves to step beyond familiar routines and spend time closer to nature — or simply slow down in our daily lives — we create space to reflect, learn, and better understand ourselves. This group brings that philosophy into thoughtful, grounded conversations.

Dubai is a city defined by movement and transition. People arrive, leave, reinvent themselves, and often live between cultures and identities. Live Unbound: Exploring Ikigai offers a place to pause — to reflect, exchange perspectives, and meet others who value depth, presence, and genuine human connection.

Sessions are free for the moment, informal, and open to anyone curious about Japanese philosophy, mindful living, or navigating life in transition — while also wanting to connect with like-minded people in a respectful, non-judgmental space.

No prior knowledge of Ikigai or Japanese culture is required. Listening is as welcome as sharing.

Ikigai is not something to find quickly.
It grows quietly, through lived experience — and often through the people we meet along the way.

Join me, in Dubai, for a discussion in a safe space.

Can’t wait to meet you in person 🌸
