Gunnar Karl Gíslason and Jody Eddy | The Hygge Life

The Danish concept of hygge (loosely translated as "coziness") is centered around the idea of feeling snug and inviting comforting elements into day-to-day life while creating warmth, community, and intimacy. The Hygge Life teaches readers how small gestures (putting wool blankets and warm cider out for guests) or larger undertakings (building bonfires and making campfire bread to celebrate solstice) can warm the psyche and foster hygge. Divided into chapters focused on different opportunities for hygge; morning rituals, family gatherings, holidays, bedtime rituals, decorating, and caring for yourself, with more than 30 recipes for cozy and comforting food and drink plus stunning photography throughout.
