Our Danish Hygge Lifestyle: Your Practical Guide to a Cozy, Healthy and Happy Life

By Freja Christensen

There is a reason why the Danes are the happiest people in the world. This reason is the Hygge lifestyle, a laid-back, Scandinavian approach that focuses on enjoying the little things in life. Many people associate Hygge with cold winter evenings spent cozily by the fireside. While this may be a bit kitschy, it is absolutely not wrong. But Hygge is not a seasonal phenomenon. In fact, it is an encompassing life philosophy that can be applied anywhere and anytime.

Hygge equals simplicity in indulgence, intimacy in togetherness, and coziness in everything you do.

If you are stressed out by your everyday life, if you feel time goes by and each and every day looks the same, if you are missing the really meaningful, memorable moments, moments in which you feel deeply comfortable, safe, relaxed and happy, then you should find out what Hygge can add to your life.

This book is a compact and practical introduction to the Hygge lifestyle.

+ What kind of food you should definitely try to feel hygge in your life
+ What Hygge means for the relationship with your friends
