You are actually describing some of Swedish habits in the 70/80:s. Miss the old Sweden. People were so respectful and truly happy. it's nice to see Japan holding up traditions.
Yes it is. I'm from the island of P.R. and I've taught these to my kids. All are heart felt intentions that make this 🌎 a better place. Grateful for this reminder that lil e-motions matter. 🙏
From Italy, I was tought to leave the place clean for the next. Such as bathroom sink, restaurant and cafè tables. We are used, even nowadays, to bring the cups of cappuccino to the coffè shop desk to help them keep clean for next customers coming.
Well, yes, I grew up in a small village in middle Germany with a lot of habits / traditions, some similar to those described here. Some I was very glad to get rid of, the "best ones" I kept til today. And I wish, people would think more in a kind and helplful way about their fellow beings.... Arigato❣
I am a native of California, but one of the greatest experiences in my life was praying in Japan. I have never followed any religion, so it was the first time I ever prayed. I was at a Shinto shrine (jinja) in Hokkaido. People washed their hands, threw coins, purchased small rolls of paper that gave their fortunes, and prayed to express their wishes to the Kami. I had no desire to wish for anything; I was moved to be grateful for everything in my life. I bowed my head quietly, closed my eyes, and let all of the blessings of my life flow through my mind. It was an experience of cleansing and humility. I've been to Japan eight times and on each occasion, I take time to repeat the ritual. While I can do that practice anywhere, including suburban Southern California, I found the atmosphere in Japan far more conducive to communing with 道.
I want to share a experience. I was hiking and on the path I was taking (it was in the forest on the way to a peak) there were a lot of large branches that had fallen to the ground from the wind, making the path blocked or difficult to walk on. Now I thought about the next person after me who would walk the path and took the time as I walked to pick up as many branches as possible and place them on the edge of the path. This made the path beautiful and I took a closer look at it. It was also tiring and took longer. But I was having fun and laughing at myself. Behind me, other hikers came up the trail and saw me picking up the branches. At first I was embarrassed that they saw me doing something so strange. But when I turned around a little later, I saw that they had also started picking up branches from the path. How nice. I was happy about this effect. Love to all of you
It feels good to do the right thing. It feels good to go out of your way to do something that is not for your own benefit. It feels good to go about seeing ways to help others , even if the task is small.
After losing 10 years to my chronicle disease, beating it after some years with strict rules for eating and change of living, I can totally agree with "you should be able to walk, breath and see". We already have everything we need but we need to appreciate it!
@nathanglynn7443 I have crohns disease! Look it's still there, beaten back but lurking, but oh oh oh! To not be in pain everyday, running to the Loo every other hour or bloated up with gas like a very confused puffer fish... I'll take it! 🥰
@@nathanglynn7443 I "had" Ulcerative colitis and I dont have any symptoms anymore since I reduced stress (clutter in my life and contacts) and totally changed my diet to asia food. I dont consume drinks with suggar and try to eat only food that has "one" ingredient.
I want to thank you for the habit I have taken to collecting rubbish in the car park of my community centre. I carry gloves and have a spare bag in my car boot and arrive a little early. I feel fabulous walking from a yoga class through a cleaner environment I took time to beautify. I don’t even become annoyed at people who drop trash, rather I take pride in cleaning it up, feeling better with that happiness.
Whenever I see rubbish lying in the street whilst jogging or walking, I do that to. Especially when I can see a rubbish-bin not far away. Happy day ! ; ))
The more I hear about China and Japan, people’s traditions and attitudes, I realise that Israelis definitely have more Asian traditions. Israel is geographically a part of west Asia and maybe that’s why so much of what you said here reminds me of Israelis.
Thank you for the motivating Video. I have been practicing some of these habits for a long time, but it is still helpful to keep thinking about them again and again. This way of thinking has helped me a lot even in difficult times. Greetings from Germany ❤
Your videos are the best thing that happened to me, ever since I started watching, I became minimalist, cleaner, more responsable, now my house is always clean and neat, and I dont procrastinate anymore, I wake up early and organize everything I have to do, I started meditating and being more grateful for my life. Before finding your videos my life was a mess, myu house was always dirty and a mess and I would forget to do the thing I had to do and would leave everything for later. Thankyou so much for your good peaceful videos that help us see what really matters in life. Love from Brazil.
Congratulations on surviving your serious health crisis and, subsequently choosing to spread joy throughout the 🌏 🙏 An excellent example of what's possible.
Arigatou! This video also brought tears to my eyes... I also open our balcony doors in the morning, recite a little prayer of thanks and sun bathe. Didn't realise that it's a Japanese habit from the past. Just started doing it when my life became challenging and I needed a solemn moment in the mornings for myself. It then became a habit that I do everyday for over 2 years now. It does set the stage for the rest of the day. Oh, and another awesome thing about sunbathing in the morning is Vitamin D. It made me less sickly and a lot happier!
Wonderful spirit of great positive energy this is a precious treat for the soul indeed. Thank you my dear friend for bringing the love and nourishment to my awakening seed.
Arigatou for this video! It came at a really scary, horrible time for me (as an american). It is a vital reminder that I Must carry on, by focusing on gratitude and being thoughtful, empathetic and kind. 🙏
After years of learning japanese, it's until today i know the hidden meaning behind arigatou 有難 and tadaima 只今, I'm touched. Thanks Aki-san for always being inspiring.
Thank you so much for this. I went to Japan this year in April and I absolutely loved it. I learned as much Japanese as I could while I was there and I brought these cultural traits back with me. I always clean up after myself in restaurants. I respect everyone’s job. In Japan, everyone’s job is important and everyone is respected. ❤️
Omg, I have never thought of that! In my language "thank you" is "hvala" which means "I praise you". Thank you for this rare miracle, Samurai Match - San! 🙏
Wow, always learn a lot and in an uplifting and positive way. Your videos are always like a smile from a stranger, surprising and make you feel good for the whole day. Arigato
I found your channel yesterday. I watched quite a few decluttering videos, and I must say your channel inspired me the most. For the first time in my life, I cleaned the toilet/bathroom first thing in the morning. I felt I accomplished something today. I will be following your advice and see how it goes. I think your honest approach to life makes your videos so relatable. I feel you are genuine and not here just for the views and subscriptions. I hope your videos will help me change my life.
🤗Dear Mister SUNSHINE, thank you for making the world a better place for everyone. Love and Gratitude to you and the Miracle you are today and always🤗🧡✨🙏
As someone who developed a severe photo sensitivity at age 20, you’re absolutely correct. The sun is a huge blessing & you never fully realize that until something as simple as having to avoid it directly happens. I guess that goes w all things. Never take anything for granted. 🙌
Beautiful brother!! Always learning something new from you! Awesome to learn about the amazing traditional japan and the meaning of words! ARIGATO!!! ❣
Arigato Aki! Mucho gratias! Merci Beaucoup! Ever since I was a child when I accidentally "hurt" a physical object I would always apologize to it. It came naturally ...kind of like stimulus response. I never understood why I did this...Maybe a deep rooted respect on an unconscious level...still never figured it out. Respect for physical objects or a room is also shown when we take care of them.
Hi Aki! I found your channel a while ago because I live minimalism and matcha just like you! But what i found is now so much more profound... I embrace more and more japanese minimalism watching your videos (and reading Fumio Sasaki's books) which is very inspiring! and I love what you share about your culture about living intentionally every day, habits, routines and so much more! ❤ thank you for everything you create, you inspire me to live a more conscious life in a very uplifting way 🌟
I've definitely thought about bowing before I enter my indoor climbing gym/space the past days so I will take it as a sign to do it now! I used to do it all the time growing up with my taekwondo practice so I'm glad to it for my new sport!
I love the explanation of thank you in Japanese.... To me saying thank you is a feeling.... I even say thank you to my washing machine...I love the way Japanese children are taught to care for their space from an early age, keeping things clean and tidy and the respect for their space. You are right about the making people's jobs a bit easier... Life is hard enough without making things difficult for people. I was brought up with the concept, your mess your responsibility to clean it..... Arigato....Thank you for the joy you bring.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. I am so ready to learn more about Japanese culture and traditions it really seems to me that they are life-changing. I am so wanting to visit one day. I am ready to change and ready for it. Thank you so much. You are amazing.
Aki: I have so much arigato for you and your channel. You've taught me so much, and continue to do so. I've adopted so many uplifting habits from you that have significantly improved my life. Now, I will begin showing respect and thanks to my spaces, laugh more, wipe down my counter tops, and keep trying to memorise the word "tadaima". Thank you for sending your wonderful content to us, Aki. Arigato (deep bow).
You're such a joyful dude that I watched this video with smile. I'm from eastern Europe and we have quite a culture of politeness but people here are not very gentle with themselves and forget to live the moment. Subbed for more of this kind of wonderful videos.
You are an amazing soccer player and a gifted teacher! Yours are my favorite videos. I even rewatch them to fall asleep when I am anxious, not because they are boring but because there is just something so right about the vibe. Arigato!
Sending you my sincerest Love, Light and Blessings from Cape Town. Your energy and videos provide me with renewed faith every time I see them... Something I value as I have been walking a challenging path for many years now... People like you are a true gift to us all.
I shared this with some other friends, so they would get to experience your gentle and calming gladness. I feel like you're a friend of mine, too. I am so grateful to you, for the way you look at us through the camera lens, to make us feel like we are with you. You are truly appreciated. 🧡🙏
I was hoping I will see you in person when I visited your beautiful country last April but I don’t know where to start looking. I will start looking for you again when I return to Japan. Arigato for this beautiful video. I am a 80 years old grandma from the Philippines
I am so glad I stumbled onto this video! 😂it is wonderful how you made my day brighter because of you being happy and smiling. I also almost died from a collapsed lung several years ago. I will make it a point to watch more of your videos and be a much happier person. You have made a change in my view of life and your "ripple effect" has reached me. Arigato!!😊😊😊😮
Lovely. What I got from this: be grateful, be present, be respectful - of others and places you share, and nature is good :) I live in a rural area of mostly older people, many of which only have contact with others when they're out running errands/shopping. One day I realized that, my friendly smile may be the only kindness they find that day. I hate it when people tell others to "smile more", but it really helps me have a better day, seeing that kindness reflected back to me. I'm a former server and customer service professional, and trust me, little actions that make that job easier are lifeblood. Take a trolley/buggy/cart in from the parking lot and don't leave one there. Don't leave a huge mess all over the table, make an easy to grab pile near the edge. Don't splatter soap and water all over the public bathroom, wipe it off when you're done. Show kindness, show grace, show respect.
Arigato. I love the things you shared with us. It’s so important to appreciate the simple things in life; this brings good mental & physical health to the human body. ❤️🙏❤️
Arigato for reminding me the impact of our smile. Your smile is so contagious! Love it. It is a miracle that I found your channel. Please keep posting. I’m so thankful to be able to learn from you.
I agree. And the eternal now is timeless. These are all reflections of living as natural selves. Let’s breathe and persevere. I currently live in an environment that is the opposite of most of these things. Arigato, gracias, merci beaucoup, thank you.
Arigato, thank you for the miracle of your beautiful video and wisdom. Thank you for being such a joy, blessing, and wonderful teacher. Your videos always make me happy.
I loved watching your video! Thank you so much for it - it definitely made my evening brighter and brought a smile to my face. :) Have a wonderful day! Arigato!
Thank you for sharing this wise advice. I’m going for a regular cancer checkup today and this helped me greatly to prepare for this stressful occasion. It was also good to see your excellent football skills!
So lovely video. Love to learn this great meanings. I also wipe the tables, and putting back the chairs in order after my meal. It seems that Japanese and Swedish culture are quite close to each other. Arigato!
A few days ago, a workmate and I were talking about how when others are happy, you live happier. So that is my life's 方針😊 I love to be happy and thankful.
Arigato! I like the fact that these sometimes mundane habits, such as wiping the table, have a deeper meaning and purpose. Spiritual intent translated into practical application. Subscribed.

As we make our way through this world, we need to leave our path better than we found it. Just imagine if everyone did this.
It feels good to do the right thing. It feels good to go out of your way to do something that is not for your own benefit. It feels good to go about seeing ways to help others , even if the task is small.
