About this listen

In this complete pocket guide to a hygge life, make your home a cozy oasis. Learn to cook, decorate, and host Danishly. Unlock the powers of relaxation and comfort. Get hygge recipes.

It’s time to slow down. It’s time to take stock of your life. It’s time to find out what really makes you happy. It’s time to re-prioritize and focus on what really matters. It’s time to spend time with the ones you love the most.

Hygge is the long-standing Danish tradition of living a cozy, happy life of hospitality, joy, and comfort. This book makes this tradition accessible to you in a new way. Instead of droning on about how you need to find inner peace and how you need to work less and play more, this book is packed with actionable strategies for making your life more hygge!

You will learn all about:

  • How to relax, hygge-style
  • How hygge can help you manage stress
  • Hygge cooking and baking and eating
  • Hygge hosting and entertaining
  • Decorating and turning your home into a hygge sanctuary
  • Hygge for the whole family
  • Better time management with hygge minimalism
  • Hygge and how it can make your more mindful

Plus! There is a bonus section with my favorite hygge comfort food recipes! Hot drinks, decadent sweets, and comforting snacks and bites, will make a great addition to your kitchen hygge ritual.

The secret to hygge is learning to draw happiness out of everything around you. This book talks you through the steps. You are free to live the life of your choosing, and you are free to enjoy it to the fullest. What are you waiting for?

I felt this book was very creatively written and that it has a lot of ideas for how you can live a more relaxed existence. By reading this you may feel nostalgic for years gone by when you had family parties with a fireplace, good food, and family visiting. We've all gotten away from this over the years with the introduction of so much entertainment we pay more attention to our phones than our family and friends who are in the same room.

Best ever

I have listened thus far, in terms of breaking down the definition of Hygge into "layman's" terms. This will definitely be a book I will recommend to others. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!

This has been the BEST book

This has been the most important book I've ever read. I feel Hygge can help me become a healthier and happier person. I`m already looking at life from a different perspective. I just wish I'd heard about it earlier.

This is a quick listen to and I think worth your time. If you need to pull yourself away from work, connect with family and friends, spend time in nature, watch movies that help you unwind, enjoy treating yourself to a cup of tea or hot cocoa or a special coffee, but you're too busy, then do read this book. With a cuppa. And a candle!

I really enjoyed this book. It was a quick, easy read and really explained the entire concept of Hygge. The book explained different ways to incorporate hygge in my everyday life. It is a lifestyle that I think will be very helpful to improve my happiness level. I highly recommend the book.

Hygge explained very well.

The only thing I'd avoid is tanning beds, sun tanning, and alcohol...well if you want to look young and be healthy well into old age. Otherwise, gather pillows and blankets and your softest warm socks and enjoy winter indoors. If you want safer candles, look for battery-operated candles to put all over your living room. I have one that glows nicely inside a glass container. I turn it on and off with a remote controller.

Truly transformational. I suffer from anxiety as a result of the constant stressors in this hectic life. I have started re-examining my life and I have found out that the reason why I push myself so much to be successful is because of this toxic society. I always knew that Danish people are the happiest but I did not know why. Now I do. They have a relaxed approach to life and are not hyper-competitive.

What an amazing book!

Listener received this title free

I’ve read several books on hygge but I really like this one. It is an all-encompassing guide that covers how to have a more hygge life. The book goes beyond the superficial level of filling your home with hygge decorations & addresses ways to really live with that spirit. I also appreciate that the book touches on the political reasons for Danes to be the happiest people in the world, recognizing that the things such paid family medical leave, health insurance, and education, are just as important if not more important to their way of life as bringing hygge into their home.

Great hygge guide
