Hygge is a feeling of coziness you create. Hygge is savoring the little moments of life by being connected. The season or the place you live in doesn’t matter as long as you find a way to enjoy everyday pleasures. In other words, the season or place doesn’t matter as long as you can find a way to bring hygge to your life. Build a collection of hot drinks to choose from to suit any mood. Flavoured teas, coffees and hot chocolates are bound to add a little bit of cheer into your day. Hygge is about being active and not passive, and the summer months is an ideal time to get outside and connect with nature. Bungee jumping and other extreme sports are for adrenaline junkies so not ideal to achieve the state of relaxation that hygge evokes. The simple things in life give people the most pleasure. The Danes love their bicycles and use them to cycle everywhere. Other outside activities considered hyggelig include dog walking, outdoor barbeques, picnics, fishing and making footprints in the sand. You could even go the whole hog and envelope nature by hugging a tree! Hygge during the summer months is also about bottling up all the warm smells and everlasting memories to take with you through the dark days and nights of winter. If it is summer, choose light colored loose cotton clothes. In short, dress for the weather without minimizing the coziness element.

From The Manufacturer

As an adult, there are many stressful events in our lives that can take over and cause us to feel down. Playing games is a way to decrease this amount of stress through laughter and companionship. Many games have surprising elements that often elicit a laugh. Plus, games of all kinds encourage creativity, which helps many adults think outside of their regular lives. For a few hours, it’s easy to forget about bills, work and other stresses of being an adult. In fact, games actually trigger a release of endorphins, which help people feel more compassionate, happy and cheerful while they are playing. Write a handwritten letter or card to a faraway friend. Even better if it will be totally unexpected. Take a flask of hot chocolate with you on a long walk. Try this lightweight Thermos which won’t weight you down.

Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are- Mason Cooley Blankets and cushionsMake space in every weekend for quality family time together. (Sounds obvious, but often easier said than done with busy schedules). Danish people give great importance to spending time with family and it is said that they have low expectations in life which makes them happy. Isn’t it true? It is when we have high expectations and when we don’t achieve them, we are angry and unhappy. Hygge is all about celebrating life’s little moments.
