The Little Book of Hygge by Meik Wiking- The Danish Way to Live Well

What is it about?
Different countries, like different people, have different personalities. Some are more upbeat; some are more downcast. Out of all the countries in the world, Denmark is often rated as the happiest. And that’s because Denmark has hygge. The Little Book of Hygge (2016) explains this concept in full and offers tips on how you can achieve it, too – wherever you live.

The Little Book of Hygge is a charmingly beautiful manual, aimed at making our lives better, through embracing comfort, warmth, and generosity. It delves into the Danish sensibility where much of their famed happiness centers on "hygge," or "coziness."

Hygge is a noun, and a verb, and a feeling. Hygge can also be an adjective – something can be hygge-like. Perhaps hygge has also become a Zeitgeist, a rebellion against capitalism and instant gratification? However we define it, it's utterly irresistible to those introverts among us. It's license to relax, license to indulge, and license to put on warm wooly socks and hunker down with a good book and a steaming hot beverage or glass of wine.

The best part about it, is that it's a shared experience, so it's guilt-free. In fact, the book provides us with recipes like meatballs and homemade bread, perfect for sharing among friends. Provided that we indulge mindfully, share abundantly, and savor each precious moment, we're completely nailing the essence of hygge.

So it could be time to slow down, turn down the lights, switch to silent, and embrace collective well-being. Maybe, just maybe, this little book isn't so little after all?
