Uketamo. Abrazar la vida tal cual viene : El secreto japonés para soltar el control y vivir en paz

In a world that demands speed, results, and certainty, acceptance is an act of courage. But how can we let go of control, embrace imperfection, and live in the present when it seems to go against our nature? At nearly 6,000 meters above sea level, on the dark ascent of Kilimanjaro, anthropologist and physiotherapist Ana Galeote felt she had reached her limit. However, by ceasing to struggle, she found an inexplicable calm and fulfillment. That experience took her even further from home, until she found the answer in uketamo: "accepting with an open heart," a Japanese concept that invites us to trust in change and accept life as it comes. From the sacred mountains of the yamabushi to Zen, kintsugi, and the tea ceremony, this book combines philosophy, practical psychology, and personal experiences to remind us that acceptance is not surrender, but quite the opposite.
