Product Information

Hygge (pronounced as hue-gah) is a Danish word which can’t be translated directly to English in one word, but the word that comes close is cosy. Explaining hygge is difficult but let me try. Think about using a salt lamp to give a warm glow & add some soothing negative ions to the air. I have a Himalayan pink salt lamp which makes me happy in all four seasons of the year. Indulge in the Nordic tradition of Fridagsmys or cosy Fridays: staying in and enjoying simple pleasures such as games, movies, and sweets. If you sometimes involve older children and teenagers in your game nights, consider whether the game is appropriate for their age. While many games are based on themes and topics that are friendly for all ages, some games have sensitive or adult topics that may not be suitable for children.

Self-care: Looking after yourself with a good book, a delicious meal and a hot bath is absolutely hygge.Benefit from the natural hygge of coming in from the cold. Put cozy clothes on, have a hot drink and curl up in front of the fire. Rosy cheeks and a burst of endorphins: ultimate hygge. Loved ones: It’s hard to create the true essence of hygge without some people near and dear to you. Friends and family make hygge feel incredible. Introduced by the Danish to describe the joy of comfy living, hygge is a popular concept that many Scandinavian locals hold dear. Take a flask of hot chocolate with you on a long walk.

Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are- Mason Cooley Blankets and cushions Similar to the German idea of gemutlichkeit, the warm and cozy lifestyle of hygge is a long-standing part of Danish culture. Since the early 1800s, the word has stood out as an excellent way to describe the joy of comfy living. Make regular fixtures to see friends that you can look forward to. It’s so easy to let time drift by and realise you haven’t caught up with people, so making a regular fixture takes all the pressure off.Add soft textures to your home with cosy blankets, cushions and throws, especially wherever you like to curl up and retreat from the world. Hygge encourages being present in the moment and fully appreciating your surroundings and experiences. It’s a way to practice mindfulness and gratitude for the present. Hygge isa feeling of cosiness and comfort that you create while enjoying the simple pleasures of life. Make space in every weekend for quality family time together. (Sounds obvious, but often easier said than done with busy schedules). There is no actual recipe for hygge as it can include one ingredient, or several ingredients mixed together. An example would be to mix 500g of comfort, 500g of indulgence and 500g of company together in one bowl. Add to this a cup of relaxation, then garnish with a sprinkling of togetherness.

Hygge encourages spending quality time with loved ones, whether it’s friends, family, or close colleagues. It’s about fostering meaningful connections and enjoying the company of others. To create a cosy nook in your home, put some cushions and throw blankets in your hyggekrog.

Or put them on your lap for resting your hands while reading a book.Throw blanket keeps you warm and you can snuggle under it to feel cosy.

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. Create traditions for celebrating birthdays and special events. These things give a lovely rhythm to your life and give you things to look forward to. Kids also love them! Arrange an activity for Sunday evening so you don’t start dreading Monday morning before the weekend’s even over.Consider whether your friends prefer competitive or teamwork games. If they love working against each other to show off their skills and get more points than one another, then a competitive game is a great choice. Some people prefer games where everyone has to work together to achieve a single goal. If this is more up your alley, go for a teamwork game. Have you experienced any such moments or something similar? Congrats! You have got an idea what hygge is.
