A Reason to Wake

di Adriano Solera (Autore)

ADMX Publishing, 2026

What if the reason to get out of bed each morning is smaller, nearer, and more ordinary than you've been led to believe? Modern life leaves many of us full of tasks yet strangely empty of direction — the body here, the attention elsewhere, decisions made on the run. In A Reason to Wake, philosopher Adriano Solera weaves together the science of purpose, the wisdom of the world's longest-living communities, and a set of quietly transformative Japanese ideas to answer one question: what makes a life feel worth living? Drawing on ikigai, shokunin, moai, and kintsugi — alongside Viktor Frankl, Blue Zones research, and studies on longevity and the nervous system — this is an unhurried, deeply practical book about meaning that can survive grief, aging, and change. Inside, you'll discover: Why purpose is not a single calling to find, but a practice to build, maintain, and rebuild What the villages where people forget to die teach us about food, movement, and belonging The Japanese concept of ikigai — and why the strongest reasons to wake are modest and renewable How flow, craft, and slowness restore depth in a fast, distracted world A notebook practice to locate your own reason to rise each morning How to weather loss without losing direction, becoming whole again around the cracks You don't need to save the world to have a purpose — you only need one honest reason to rise tomorrow morning.
