The Book of Hygge


Mind Body & Soul Ezine Book Review: The Book of Hygge  - The Danish Art of Living Well, hardback by Louisa Thomsen Brits. Full colour Hardback. Published by Ebury Press RRP £12.99 

We are provided with a definition of the term “hygge” and how to pronounce it (hue-gah) and a wonderful write-up by the author of this exceptional way of being. The Introduction gives several quotes that describe how to live harmoniously and contentedly. The history of this Danish practice is interesting and the word derivation describes how the word originated. Hygge involves a sense of belonging, togetherness, trust, being in the moment, being yourself, equality, comfort, connection, ease, pleasure, simplicity, balance, optimism, wellbeing, informality, nourishing, welcoming, all these enjoyments and more. How to do it? 

Yes, I love this book and the concept of cosy hospitality and love of one’s home! Buy for yourself or as a gift for a friend.
