Description du livre
The Danish concept of hygge is about much more than being warm and cozy as snow falls outside. It's a mindset that celebrates the art of slowing down and savoring the everyday pleasures of life. Hygge can be present in the newness of spring and as life winds down in autumn. Even on the hottest days of summer, the comforts of hygge are available to us. Hygge can mean being with your loved ones or being happy on your own. Hygge can be still and quiet or active and full of fun.
Hygge may have originated in Scandinavia, but it's an idea that deserves to spread throughout the world. It's a perfect fit with both minimalism and gratitude, and if you're interested in either, you'll love the insights shared in this book.
