We had ikigai dinner with fermented native grains and Natto to celebrate the new moon in Aquarius.
It was Rishun in Japan yesterday, new year’s day in the lunar calendar, and the beginning of Spring. We had a special dinner to celebrate it.
The Ikigai Diet is based on the lifestyles of regions which are known to be the longest lived prefectures in Japan, Nagano, Shiga, and Okinawa.

I was uploading videos to my YouTube channel sachiakitakamiya, but I have both videos in Japanese and videos in English, as well as having many different contents. So, I decided to put all my Ikigai Diet related English videos on a separate channel.
I set up the Facebook page today because it was a lucky day to start something in Japan today.

Nanakusagayu is salt taste rice porridge made by what we call spring seven wild herbs. It is supposed to cleanse our stomach which has been filled with heavy meals during the new year’s holiday. If we have Nanakusagayu for breakfast on the 7th, we are said to have good health for the rest of the year.
