A Moai (pronounced “Mo-Eye”) is a group of people meeting for a common purpose. The word “Moai” comes from Okinawa, Japan, where neighbors use Moais as support systems. They personally connect with their friends or family to ensure that everyone is okay.
Ikigai = a reason for being' is a Japanese concept referring to something that gives a person a sense of purpose, a reason for living.
Here are some ways to promote Moai and Ikigai
Hang out with a group of lifelong friends in a recurring and planned way.
Connecting with a social support group that is formed to provide varying support from social, financial, health, or spiritual interests, churches are the perfect powerhouse for this.
In North America, the best way to take part in Moai is by attending church or a church small group. The added benefit is that this will automatically create Ikigai, giving you a sense of purpose, and a reason for living.
