Publisher's summary

If you wish to discover a stunning sense of happiness and well-being, then hygge is just the philosophy for you.

Cravings for comfort, for coziness, for contentment: everyone experiences the desire for a happier, less stressful, and more serene life.

Hygge, the Danish-born philosophy, is one proven way to achieve such a life. From the Old Norse for “well-being”, hygge embodies a philosophy that is as much a mind-set as it is a way of life.

Specific activities are designed to encourage you to cultivate togetherness and joy at the smallest and simplest things in everyday life.

This audiobook provides an in-depth explanation of the hygge lifestyle as well as numerous bits of practical advice on how to practice hygge every day.

As you listen to this audiobook, you will learn/gain the following:

• A thorough grounding in the Danish art of hygge - the lifestyle equivalent of embracing a hug from the inside out
• The eight ways to incorporate practical aspects of hygge into every part of your daily life, from hearth and home to food and crafts
• The four things you should know about nurturing happy and serene relationships with children, parents, partners, and friends
• Reasons why living your life in a constant rush and stress - even if it feels materially lucrative - is not the path to ultimate happiness. Instead, engage with the simple things in life with gratitude and pleasure.
• Ways to achieve household harmony without sacrificing friends and self-care
• A fundamental understanding of where true happiness comes from and how you can embark on your journey to joy today
• And much, much more!

I had acknowledged The Little Book of Hygge (which is also great) but this audiobook explains hygge for an American audience. Lots of useful ideas for how to make your home and life more hyggeligt.

feel less anxious

This book is a great introduction to the Danish approach to using cognitive skills to enhance the quality of life. As the field of positive psychology continues to grow, this is an intelligent and useful source

Get this book!

I say we need reminders of the best things in life so that we don't hurry past the opportunities or, more to the point, making the opportunities for some Hygge time.

Happy with this audible

I even feel more an urge to want to go outside and enjoy outdoors more or to bring the outdoors inside more.

Very interesting

This is a very interesting book that provides some great perspectives on happiness. It even had some recipes in it, as well as many facts and tips about how to achieve hygge and happy life.

I love this book! And anyone who likes the warmth of a cozy fire, outdoor festivals and handmade socks will LOVE this book!

lots of info

Her words left me inspired to slow down a little and add more comfort and beauty to life’s simple moments.

I loved li

Maybe it's because I'm part Danish, but I loved listening to the author read this little book with its positive approach to life. It made me want to hunker down in a cozy candlelit room surrounded by good friends and all things hygge.

Adorable

This book is adorable. I bought this for myself and a friend who is also into the danish style. It is a great little ‘how-to’ book.

Overall Interesting

The narration was well done, and the book was overall interesting. While I did gain a few new perspectives, most of the book was information I already knew. Quite a bit of the first part centers on Danish life and how Hygge is so easy due to the laws and layout of their country. While that was interesting to an extent--that information doesn't seem to be helpful with our country abiding by a different set of laws and standards.
