The “Hygge” concept
Winter knocks at our doors with the upcoming events, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. The atmosphere of these popular holidays can increase people’s overall condition and boost their energy to survive these cold and unpleasant days.
If we go to Denmark, where “Hygge” – something similar to “hug” – is a big deal for Danish people, we can see the whole importance of the book “The Little Book of Hygge”, written by Meik Wiking. In his book, an author describes the key elements of any social gathering around Denmark.
The important moment of such social upcoming events is to talk about “Hygge” all the time. You must underline this word to make the overall atmosphere better. Everyone, no matter who they are, uses this magical word “hygge”.
If this something that you have missed, you can still become as happy as Danish people are. There are some wonderful things you can do to achieve this pleasant atmosphere:
- You can eat pastries
- Use your dog as a pillow
- Chilling with your friends around the fire pit
All these things are “hygge”. This thing is definitely existing in many countries, but there is no concrete term for it. If you are looking to find or create a good atmosphere – “The Little Book of Hygge” is your main tool to become happy this winter.
Meik Wiking, who created the completely new category of lifestyle called “hygge”, describes this word as a combination of “comfort, togetherness and well-being”. The life experience, where people can love, can be happy and can be safe.
