By adopting these Japanese habits, incorporating mindfulness, embracing balance, and nurturing both body and mind, one can unlock a reservoir of sustained energy that transcends the fast-paced demands of modern life.
Two Japanese businesses are collaborating to create a "nap box" where people can sleep standing up in an effort to combat lengthy workdays and overwork.
The two Japanese firms Koyoju Gohan and Itoki Corp have joined forces to thwart Japan’s nasty overwork problem, deaths of which average around 2,000 a year in the country.
