You know hygge when you feel it. It is when you are cuddled up on a sofa with a loved one, or sharing comfort food with your closest friends. It is those crisp blue mornings when the light through your window is just right.
Who better than Meik Wiking to be your guide to all things hygge? Meik is CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen and has spent years studying the magic of Danish life. In this beautiful, inspiring book he will help you be more hygge: from picking the right lighting and planning a dinner party through to creating an emergency hygge kit and even how to dress.
Meik Wiking is the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen. He is committed to finding out what makes people happy and has concluded that hygge is the magic ingredient that makes Danes the happiest nation in the world.
You know when you read a book and it makes you feel all happy and cozy and just all round great? Well this is that kind of book. Hygge is kind of getting to be heard about alot now. Or at least it feels that way to me. So out of pure curiosity I brought this book, without knowing anything about what it acutally meant.
The one thing i enjoyed about this book so much is its simplicity. It flowed great. It was the perfect size. Enough information and picutres and geeky graphs to please. Hygge is such a simple thing to achieve that to some extent people outside of Denmark are already doing it without realising.
Hygge is something so perfect for me. It's a breath of fresh air. It's cosy, its friendship and families. It's taking away the computers, the televisions (to some extent) and just enjoy the moment, the being together. I'm going to try and get more Hygge in my life.
I also want to very much visit Copenhagen. This book is just perfection
