Life Coaching & Soul Work for professional and personal growth
Have you ever spoken to your soul? Or ever stopped to listen to what it has to say? Has the noise of the world, the quest for achievement, the expectation to live up to others’ image of you and their image of your success clouded your relationship with yourself and your soul?
At The Ikigai Foundation, we create a safe space for our members to leave behind the ‘who’ and begin discovering the ‘you’ - the one you see every day in a mirror but is really never seen. We work with you to recognise the narratives and core beliefs you carry in your life that keep you within the lakshman rekha (bright line rule) of the ‘who’.
So, what is Ikigai?
The term "IKIGAI" comprises two distinct components: "iki," denoting life, and "gai," signifying value or worth. In a research paper published in 2001, co-author Akihiro Hasegawa, a clinical psychologist and associate professor at Toyo Eiwa University, integrated the term ikigai into everyday Japanese language. Hasegawa explains that the word ikigai can be traced back to the Heian period (794 to 1185). The term "gai" originates from "kai," which refers to "shell" in Japanese and was highly regarded as valuable. Consequently, the term ikigai emerged to represent the concept of value in living.
Discover your Ikigai
Usually, the word IKIGAI refers to a passion that gives value and joy to life, but the way we interpret it here is the core idea behind The Ikigai Foundation. We believe that the only way to discover your IKIGAI is to know yourself better like we always say – the ‘you’ behind the ‘who’. Once we discover ourselves, our soul, what truly makes us happy, what is our personal definition of happiness, where we feel deeply loved, connected to our heart and at peace, can we find our passion, purpose and our true vocation? This is the only way to connect to those around us and inspire them with the deep love we feel when we really see the ‘you’.

How it works
We use scientifically tested modalities to work with clients through the journey of self-discovery, healing and transmuting their blocks to success, bringing a sense of inner peace and grounding to their lives. Our clients become rooted in who they really are and redefine their parameters of happiness and success – above all integrate in their hearts and bodies the recognition that each of us are responsible for our happiness, there is no one, no thing, no place outside of us that can be given the responsibility to make us happy.
At the Ikigai Foundation, we believe in helping individuals find their true self, their reason for being, and supporting them in living a meaningful and fulfilling life aligned with their true calling.
