Born in Gifu Prefecture in 1987, she is a mother of three. After graduating from Gifu University’s Graduate School of Education and Graduate School of Teacher Education, she taught at elementary and junior high schools for approximately 10 years. The birth of her first child and parental leave coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic, and she experienced mental and physical discomfort due to the loneliness of raising a child and overwork. Struggling to control her emotions, she began writing down her feelings in her diary. As she wrote, she realized that her strong emotions followed certain patterns and that there were specific factors behind her calm days. She learned how to use her planner to cheer herself up. This experience prompted her to focus on planner research and share her planner-related tips on social media. Eventually, she began offering planner courses to her followers and retired from teaching. She then became an active planner researcher and began offering online planner courses. Her programs, centered around time management, goal achievement, and emotional care, were well-received, with over 2,400 women taking her courses over the course of three years.

After about 10 years as a teacher, she faced emotional turmoil and waves she had never felt before during her childbirth and childcare leave. The details are in the book, but with an overwhelming number of tasks, including raising children, housework, and supporting her husband at work, there were days when she felt like she had nowhere to put her emotions. In this situation, she searched for ways to gradually bring order to her mind, and the “Feelings Diary” method was born. Some people tend to feel depressed from autumn to winter. Start with this book and try taking just 30 seconds a day to reflect on your feelings. I’m sure you’ll discover a calmer version of yourself that isn’t swayed by your emotions, and one that can regulate your own mood. ■Book summary
