Shodo : the practice of mindfulness through the ancient art of Japanese calligraphy / Rie Takeda. by Takeda, Rie, author. London : Watkins, 2022. Subjects Calligraphy, Japanese.   Calligraphy, Japanese -- Technique.   Zen calligraphy -- Japan.   Mindfulness (Psychology) ISBN:  9781786786807 (hardback) : 178678680X (hardback) Description:  243 pages : illustrations ; 20 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  The ancient Japanese art of calligraphy is more than just a decorative skill; it is a revolutionary approach to mindfulness. This book is a beautiful introduction to Shodo, which shows how the movement of a brush channels energy through the body and mind, uniting both in harmony. What results on the paper is a true depiction of the present moment, a movement towards a more peaceful mindfulness. Shodo expert and professional calligrapher Rie Takeda shares the history, philosophy and craft of Shodo. Decorated throughout with her stunning art, Takeda begins with the basic brushstrokes, and builds up to drawing complete kanji, beautifully nuanced in both appearance and meaning. Introductory sections include practical information on what sort of ink, pens and brushes to use, how to prepare your space, how to sit and breathing exercises. This is alongside spiritual guidance, including the concept of Mushin (an undisturbed mind), Qi energy, and how to discover your unique inner quality. A final troubleshooting section allows you to identify what wobbles and imperfections in your lines can tell you about the various tensions and stresses in your body and mind.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 744.42995 Ta Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 744.42995 Takeda Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 744.42995 Ta Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult New Books 744.42995 Ta missing from shelf Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 744.42995 Ta Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 744.42995 Ta Checked In Add Copy to MyList
