The Power of Chōwa
The Japanese wisdom of chōwa offers a fresh perspective on how to live, and new ways to find balance among the many different directions that modern life pulls us in.
Chowa is a Japanese concept that is often translated as 'harmony', but more accurately means 'the search for balance'. Chowa is both a philosophy and a set of practices that can help us get to the heart of what is most important to us, and change our way of thinking about ourselves and others.
This book will teach you how to apply the lessons of chowa to your own life to better focus on what really matters and cultivate an everyday state of equilibrium and calm that will help you feel ready for anything. Chōwa helps us to better balance our priorities and our relationships and find inner strength and flexibility in times of change and difficulty.
Whether you are searching for balance at home, at work, in your relationships or in any other area of your life, chōwa offers new solutions and a way of thinking that we could all benefit from, now more than ever.
'Following Tanaka's wisdom is an easy way to start making life feel just a little more balanced' —the Independent

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
