Shizen Style

This channel focuses on Japanese aesthetics, nature, Japanese gardens and culture. A Shizen Style is about designing a lifestyle of bringing nature into our modern lives. It's an appreciation of human creativity and nature. 

"Shizen" is Japanese for "nature, natural, and spontaneous." Their concept for this term includes the creative human elements we bring to nature as well. 

This human and nature connection is highlighted on this channel through things like Japanese gardening, Japan travel, Japanese culture and my shakuhachi bamboo flute playing. Think of Shizen Style as a guide to fostering a contemporary lifestyle of living naturally.
This has everything to do with slow living, but also appreciating the moment and living a life with flow. 

I talk about wabi-sabi (acceptance of transience and imperfection) and other aesthetic and design principles that help you develop your own Shizen Style.
