Psychotherapy (counseling) is for people who want to live life to the fullest by self-reflection. We can all lead a mindful and purposeful lifestyle and manage life's challenges such as anxiety and depressive mood if we have the right tools. I can help you manage your situation even though your negative thoughts are still there. You can still achieve your goals even though your challenging feelings are there.

I had the honor of attending and presenting at the 42nd Morita Conference in Sapporo this year. It was an incredible experience, especially to see so many young Morita specialists and practitioners leading the way in promoting Morita Therapy and its principles for the next generation.

I am grateful to the organizing team, as well as the experienced Morita specialists and teachers who provided encouragement and support. I would also like to thank my fellow presenters who apply Morita principles in various settings around the world.

I am truly honored to present at the International Naikan Congress in Shanghai alongside experienced Naikan specialists. The Chinese organizing team, comprised of psychiatrists, psychologists, educators, psychotherapists, and other staff who specialize in Naikan, welcomed us warmly. I feel humbled to learn from so many knowledgeable and compassionate Chinese clinicians who shared their research with us. The organizing team's extensive planning, adjustments, and dedication made this remarkable international gathering possible.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the entire Chinese organizing team for making my stay both fruitful and comfortable. 再見, until we meet again！

Happy Birthday to His Holiness!
I watched the live stream of the public event for his 90th birthday the other day. It was one of the rare occasions when I had the chance to glimpse into Tibetan tradition. I wish the Dalai Lama a long and healthy life. I am also glad to learn that Tibetans will continue their tradition of the succession process for the next Dalai Lama. (The 14th Dalai Lama as a 2-year old.)

🌈 LGBTQ+ Affirming Resources

Important Update:
Starting July 1, 2025, the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline will no longer offer a dedicated support line for LGBTQ+ youth. This change will impact one of the most vulnerable populations, who already face higher risks of su***de and mental health crises.

Fortunately, these affirming resources remain available. Please share this information below in the comment section with friends, family, and communities who may need support.

One of the winter solstice events is taking Yuzu citrus baths. The citrus’s scent and oil help us relax and retain warmth. I love everything about Yuzu, and I went above and beyond to get anything Yuzu when I was in Kochi, a famous place that grows It.

I am humbled to continue having an opportunity to be on the board of the TōDō Institute. TōDō Institute's alternative approach to mental wellness, informed by Japanese Psychology, goes far beyond symptom reduction. It teaches resilience and takes the mystique out of coping with life. TōDō Institute's programs translate the wisdom of Japanese Psychology into lifelong practices that nourish our spirit, strengthen our relationships, and deepen our connections with the world. Below is a link to learn more about TōDō Institute and its programs.

I had the pleasure of attending and presenting at the 41st Japanese Society of Morita Therapy, this time in Kochi, where Dr. Masatake Morita was born and raised. This conference also happened in the year of a celebration of his 150th birthday! While this year's preparation for the conference was challenging due to time constraints with work, commitments, and other obligations, exchanging information and ideas with other Morita practitioners and specialists at the conference was such a rewarding experience. Not only that, I had an opportunity to join a memorable excursion to visit Dr. Morita's birthplace and his resting place, led by a private tour guide from a volunteer for the preservation committee of Dr. Morita's birthplace. If anyone is interested, please join this effort to preserve this historic site. * Dr. Morita's birthplace is a nationally registered tangible cultural property. However, it needs extensive repair efforts since it is over 150 years old. Please contact them for more details: morita-hozon@mx7.tiki.ne jp.
