The Little Book of Hygge is the "definitive guide to the Danish philosophy of comfort, togetherness, and well-being."
Meik Wiking, CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, says he is committed to finding out what makes people happy. He has concluded that hygge is the magic ingredient that makes Danes the happiest nation in the world. "Hygge is about an atmosphere and an experience," Wiking explains. "It is about being with the people we love. A feeling of home. A feeling that we are safe."
The Little Book of Hygge is a great introduction into the Danish way of life and offers plenty of tips for people just starting out on their hygge adventure. Read through this hygge "to-do list" and you will see that it just might be the greatest self-help movement of all time.
Get comfy. Take a break. Be here now. Turn off the phones. Turn down the lights. Bring out the candles. Build relationships. Spend time with your tribe. Give yourself a break from the demands of healthy living. (Cake is most definitely hygge.) Live life today. Live in the moment.
