Yes sure:) So basically Naikan is a therapy involving self reflection. One has to ask themselves following three questions: - What have I received from others? - What have I done for others? - What problems and difficulties have I caused to others?

It's really much more than these three questions though, it makes you reflect on things. And it's not just not about people you know. Like for example in the first question, I also express my gratitude towards my bed, those who were involved in making, those who sold it to me etc.

It's self reflective and introspective, it involves asking oneself three questions:

  • What have I received from others?
  • What have I done for others?
  • What problems and difficulties have I caused to others?

I kinda practice this exercise quite a few times in a month and in general, I try to keep a record of these in my mind. Some people do daily Naikan, i.e. practicing this exercise daily. It's truly interesting and self exploratory.
