The way of Nagomi: The Japanese Philosophy of Finding Balance and Peace In Everything You Do by Ken Mogi    208 pages 

Nagomi is finding the balance and harmony of all things.   This philosophy reminds me of the Chinese Feng Shui though to a more laid back interpretation.   The book covers the nagomi of:

Food, Self, Relationships, Health, Lifelong Learning, Creativity, Life, Society and Nature with the goal being to enable you to:

Maintain happy relationships, learn new things, find peace in everything you are doing, blend unlikely things to find a harmonious balance and gain a greater understanding of the Japanese philosophy of life.   There are interesting parts and some very slow ones that seem to drift off the page, but, there are ideas to learn here so given the ethereal blithe spirit like pages, I will recommend this book to adults, I don't think it offers enough to keep the younger sets attention.
