We hear more and more that Denmark is the happiest country in the world. What could be the Danes' secret that makes them the happiest nation? Meik Wiking, the director of the Copenhagen Happiness Research Institute, has come to the conclusion during his many years of work that the answer is none other than hygge.
This term has already been translated as the art of intimacy, the homeliness of the soul and the enjoyment of a soothing environment, but in order to truly understand the essence of this special feeling of life, we will need more than a few terms.
With the help of this beautiful and inspiring book, we can learn the secret of hygge - and thus happiness - step by step: we can find out what role lights, good food, social relations, Christmas or even dressing play in this.
In addition to the wealth of interesting information and connections, the richly illustrated volume also provides practical advice (concrete examples, recipes, ideas) with the help of which anyone can easily introduce elements of hygge into their everyday life.
