Aboha

The Korean Art of Finding Meaning in the Ordinary
A beautifully illustrated guide to Aboha, a popular Korean philosophy centered on the meaning in ordinary days. Written by wellness expert Michelle Jungmin Bang, drawing on her research into traditional Korean well-being and longevity.

What if an ordinary day was more than enough?

Aboha – meaning ‘a very ordinary day’ – is a calming philosophy from Korea that invites you to slow down, step away from constant busyness and find comfort in life’s simplest moments.

Written by Michelle Jungmin Bang, a leading voice in Korean wellness who has spent years researching and documenting centuries-old well-being traditions across Asia, this beautifully illustrated book brings together simple, soothing ideas to help you embrace a quieter, more mindful way of living.

From unhurried walks and screen-free evenings to low-pressure hobbies like knitting or journalling and creating cosy, comforting spaces at home, each page offers a gentle way to reset. Rooted in lived experience and cultural insight, Aboha is a much-needed antidote to modern life, encouraging you to let go of perfection and reconnect with what’s already there.

With its calming tone and full-colour illustrations throughout, this is a book to dip into whenever you need a moment of peace – or a thoughtful gift for someone who does.
