7 Japanese Home Philosophies That Feel Surprisingly Indian | The Last One Is My Favourite

In this video, I explore 7 Japanese lifestyle habits - and find that almost every idea felt surprisingly familiar to my Indian home. A few months ago, I started reading about Japanese home philosophy - drawn to how intentional it all seemed. And the more I explored, the more I kept thinking about the homes I grew up in. The people who ran them. The quiet systems they had. The beauty they found in simple, everyday rituals. This isn't a video about making your home more Japanese. It's about what happens when you see your own traditions through a new lens - and realise that simple living, intentional homemaking, and the pursuit of a calmer home have always been part of our Indian culture. We didn't have the words. Whether you're a homemaker longing for more ease and minimalism in your space, or someone curious about Japanese habits and what they might mean for an Indian home - I hope this feels like a gentle, familiar conversation.🕯️ Concepts Covered & Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction 0:38 - Danshari: The Art of Letting Go 3:12 - Genkan: The Sacred Threshold 4:30 - 5S: A Japanese system for an organised, intentional space 7:17 - Wabi-Sabi: Beauty in Imperfection 8:40 - Kaizen: The 15-Minute Reset 10:46 - Ichigo Ichie: This Moment, Once 12:10 - Ikigai: your reason to care for this home Much-loved products for a truly Indian Home: Favourite Incense Sticks & Cones: Phool Luxury Incense Cones - Sandalwood: https://amzn.to/3KJ033f Phool Luxury Incense Cones - White Cedar & Rose: https://amzn.to/4nElxwU Phool Oudh Incense Sticks - https://amzn.to/4rXOvJk Phool Sandalwood Dhoop: https://amzn.to/4bAIEot Phool Oudh Dhoop - https://amzn.to/4lXtZr1 Phool Citrus Fragrances - https://amzn.to/4rYfbd1 Cycle Yagna - https://amzn.to/4c8LuRJ Mangaldeep Temple - https://amzn.to/4lTL1Gt Nirmalaya Rooh Incense Sticks - https://amzn.to/488QSBW Cycle Pure Tulsi Bambooless Dhoop - https://amzn.to/4pYIYlT Cycle Pure Woods Natural Incense - https://amzn.to/4oW0PZe Other Decor & Organisation Essentials (as seen in the video): IKEA Cloth Hanging Shelf - https://link.amazon/B0dJfJnaE IKEA Shoe Rack - https://link.amazon/B009fwL1I Solar Diya - https://link.amazon/B0b0h89zk Steel Funnel - https://link.amazon/B038qtEuU IKEA Spice Jars - https://link.amazon/B0ejHBPie Brass Vilakku - https://link.amazon/B0dGqw5ZF Filter Coffee Essentials: Filter Coffee Maker - https://amzn.to/41ODHmf Davara Tumbler Set - https://amzn.to/3OlDrrX Cothas Filter Coffee (Love this blend!) - https://amzn.to/4vKbmLy 🏡 That Indian Home is a channel about slow living, mindful homemaking, and finding beauty in the everyday rhythms of an Indian home - wherever in the world you are. 🔔 Subscribe:    / @thatindianhome   🌿 Instagram:   / thatindianhome   🎥 Watch next: → Indian Home Fragrances:    • How I Make My Indian Home Smell Divine | F...   → Indian Home in the UK:    • An Indian Home in the Heart of the UK | Ri...   → 7 Renter-Friendly Ideas for Indian Homes:    • These 7 Organization Ideas Work for EVERY ...   → 7 Daily Habits of a Smart Homemaker:    • Smart Homemakers Do These 7 Things Every D...   → 7 Small Indian Kitchen Countertop Organisation Ideas:    • 7 Small Indian Kitchen Countertop Organiza...   I truly hope you find this video, along with the details mentioned in the description, helpful.
