Book of Hygge: The Danish Art of Contentment, Comfort, and Connection
Book of Hygge: The Danish Art of Contentment, Comfort, and Connection | Louisa Thomsen Brits
"The most poetic of the [hygge books]; I found myself repeatedly returning to its list-like incantation of hyggeligt habits." --Louisa Kamps, ELLEHygge (hoo-gah) is a Danish word but a universal feeling of being warm, safe, comforted, and sheltered--an experience of belonging to the moment and to each other. When life gets hectic, work grows stressful, and the days fly by, unplug and tune in. Hygge anchors us, reminding us to slow down, to connect with place and with one another, to dwell and savor rather than rush and spend. When you curl up by the fire with a blanket, or have a simple meal with friends, that is hygge. When you acknowledge the sacred in the secular, or focus on people rather than things, or when you express love through small gestures, that is hygge. The Book of Hygge is an invitation to welcome abundance and contentment into your life. It is a call to live more fully by focusing on what moves you. With beautiful full-color photographs and instructive meditations on relishing the everyday, it is your perfect guide to cultivating the coziness that has made Danes the happiest people in the world. The Book of Hygge is designed with an unjacketed, textured cover and crisp, clean interiors. As seen in the The New Yorker, a cure for SAD in book form.

#Naturalitsy #MidwinterSolace

Yesterday, I received an envelope of lovely wintery ephemera from @Chrissyreadit for my 2nd win in getting the most stacks (I think I tied) in our #FridayNightShare book recommendations. They have a pearly finish that‘s hard to capture well in a photo but they‘re beautiful & I look forward to journaling with them. Thank you!

I‘m a bit under-the-weather this weekend🤧so mostly napping & I may do an early #HyggeHour

#Midwintersolace has definitely been helping me get through the shorter days. I‘ve adored our #fridaynightshares, I even indulged & bought a few new books. And our #hyggehourreadathons & #naturalitsycardswap have made me so happy! Hygge at my house has included rituals for solstice & Hanukkah, endless cups of tea, coffee, & cocoa, snuggles with the fur-balls, reading in my blanket nests, house cleaning, & enjoying lots of time by candlelight.

I have loved all of it but: Sunday night shared reading , a week of hygge photos, naturalitsy swap, zen, calming activities. It made me really pay attention to me & how I relate to the natural world. 3mo

I‘ve read a few books on hygge & similar philosophies from other countries before, mostly how to/self help type books geared towards Americans with a few useful moments but overall fairly meh. This was much more up my alley. The entire book was about the philosophy of hygge & how it manifests in Danish culture. Think the intro of one of those other books extended. I found reading it to be a very hyggelig experience. This is one I‘d like to own.

kelli7990 My dog had a seizure in October before we took her to the vet to get her skin tag removed but my mom was at work when it happened and I told her about it after she got home. In November, my dog was laying on my mom‘s bed and she started having a seizure at 11 PM but this time, my mom was home and she saw it. My dog calmed down but she seemed like she was confused afterwards. I don‘t know why she‘s had 2 seizures but she‘s been okay since then. (edited) 4mo

What are your self-care plans today?

I'm planning a relaxing day with my daughters, decorating for Christmas. Then we'll make dinner together, all set for a Christmas movie night. 🎬 ❄️❤️🎄🫕

Smrloomis Where I am it‘s National Day weekend so most people are out and about. So I think I‘ll stay in 😂 and have a little readathon. But what to do about snacks? I‘ll have to figure that out… 1y

IndoorDame I‘m going to do a little housework in between lots of breaks for tea and books (also my longer hair kitten is in dire need of a bath but neither she nor I are keen on the idea, so I‘m ignoring the problem and maybe by the time I‘m done with my todo list it‘ll have disappeared?) 1y
bnp @IndoorDame Does she like being brushed? 1y
IndoorDame @bnp she likes it for like 60 seconds, then she starts trying to eat the brush once she gets bored, or you try to brush her stomach or something… she‘s only 6 mo and was super skittish when I got her so we‘re still working on getting her used to grooming. (Slower than ideal but I‘m recovering from Covid so all the nonessentials have taken a backseat recently) 1y
bnp Going for a walk this morning, and hanging out with a friend this evening for crafts, food & tree and menorah lighting in the town I live in. 1y

A gorgeous read sharing the sentiments and thought processes behind Hygge. It leaves the reader with some useful and practical ideas as to how they can incorporate a little or a lot more Hygge into their own lifestyles and homes. #thebookofhygge #tea_sipping_bookworm #litsy #amazonkindle #bookqueen #bookstagram #hygge #goodreads

“In concentrating on friendship and empathy, in paying attention to our relationships with people and place, we address the needs of our environment— the society that we live in and our planet. Sustainability depends on community— when we learn to be happily reliant on each other, we‘re less likely to turn to material consumption to meet our emotional needs.”

First book finished this 2018! Well it took long enough! I dragged through it from 2017, but it wasn‘t a pan. In fact, I found it pretty interesting albeit repetitive. It reminded me at times of Snoop and The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up in its premise that the objects we keep and how we arrange them say so much about us. I‘d probably buy it if I didn‘t think it‘s main goal was establishing Denmark as a type of utopia!! 😂

Wbabdullah Though I must say it does make me want to visit Denmark which I had no inclination to visit before. Learned lots of new Danish vocabulary from this book! Also, the pictures were nice but seemed a bit randomly placed... 6y
Wbabdullah Hygge is social nirvana—fragile, organic, and about how we communicate, think and socially engage with others without over indulging. It‘s balance, harmony, and being comfortable in one‘s skin. Safety, warmth, and welcome in engagement with other people, environments, materials, etc. comfortable conduct. Community. Security. Being in the shelter of one another. Peace of mind. Feeling at home with oneself wherever you may be, home or otherwise. 6y
Wbabdullah All in all, this was a book that I needed to read at this particular time in my life so I can consciously cultivate more hygge, though by its very definition it‘s something that organically happens and can‘t be forced. 6y
See All 15 Comments
Wbabdullah Ok I‘m gonna be philosophizing over this for a while now 🤔 6y
Drnkpnkprincess Yes!!!!!!!! Hygge is more than the next hip new age lifestyle... it‘s a sense of being and it‘s something (I feel) everyone should read about. Then again I think it‘s important to learn about ALL societies- this might be the most beneficial for everyone 😳🤓 6y
Wbabdullah @Drnkpnkprincess the nice thing is that we‘ve all experienced hygge. It‘s not specific to the Danes, but they have the encompassing word for it. Reading the book helped me be mindful about what practices, people, environments, and objects I feel the most at ease with, and those I don‘t so that I can cultivate the joy that stems from hygge!! (edited) 6y
Drnkpnkprincess Exactly! I think it would be helpful for everyone to get back to the simpler times, experiences and reset. Slow us down a tad, relax and enjoy each other‘s company... hahaha #oneday 6y
Kalalalatja You are so true! As a Dane, I can‘t really understand the fuss about Hygge. For me it is just a word, not a way of life 😄 6y
Wbabdullah @Kalalalatja I was wondering if I had any Danish friends here on Litsy!!! Yay! I do! Cuz there‘s totally a word I want to know how to pronounce...maybe a few...it‘s dark now but I‘ll post the words on here after the sun rises and tag you! I hope you can help me! 6y
Wbabdullah @Kalalalatja @Drnkpnkprincess I find a lot of my hygge in between the covers of a book! 😍 and @Kalalalatja aw, you know that book was written for a foreign audience in mind...so that the rest of the world could find themselves again...and become civilized hygge and joy cultivators like the Danish!! 😂🤣 Maybe something has been lost in the modern ages, but upon reading this book, I am happy I have a word for this feeling I already felt... 6y
Wbabdullah @Kalalalatja @Drnkpnkprincess Have u guys ever read this book? I really enjoyed it—it has a whole bunch of words (concepts) from around the world that have to basically be basically explained with many words in other languages...like hygge does. What I disliked about this book was that they don‘t write the words in the languages script—it‘s all romanized and transliterated 👎🏽 6y
Kalalalatja Sure, you just go ahead and tag me, and I‘ll see what I can do to help 😄 and I haven‘t read the book, but I would like too. I find un-translatable words fascinating! 6y
Drnkpnkprincess I haven‘t read this book- but I have read 6y
Drnkpnkprincess And in that book Wiking talks about how to create a more hyggeligt (forgive me if I‘m using that word wrong) environment at home and work, and around the holidays (which with all the candles and fireplaces firing up in the US right now- should be easier to create 🤣) I also find hygge in books and am glad I have a better word to describe a feeling that‘s more than comfort and happiness... 6y
Wbabdullah @Drnkpnkprincess me too! New vocab rocks!! 😍❤️🙌🏽 6y

Wbabdullah Whoops! Seems like you already know your personality type, so then go here and look for INFJ: https://www.bustle.com/p/the-genre-of-book-you-need-to-be-reading-based-on-your-... @EchoLogical 7y
Wbabdullah 😂😂😂on your description of yourself!! 7y
Wbabdullah I bet it's not the case though!! @EchoLogical 7y
Wbabdullah I just looked up INFJ on the article and saw the books you've been reading--it says you'll love high fantasy! Looks like it's really accurate! Has you and me nailed on books @EchoLogical 7y
EchoLogical @Wbabdullah I found it right after I asked about but went and ate dinner with my little and forgot to post the result. I have to agree it is pretty spot on. Lol 7y

Whaddya know? An accurate personality test! I am a teacher!! So here's my hygge based on my Myers-Briggs personality type! I should be reading literary fiction, and that is right up my alley! Love the last line--I do wish that people read more, especially when I find it that they aren't readers...😱thx @jenniferw88 for sharing your results so I'd be intrigued to find my own!! Link to test below and your literary type 👇🏽

Jess7 That's a cool article. I'm an ENFJ. 7y
Wbabdullah @Jess7 yay! Do u like literary fiction, too? Maybe our similar personality type is why you're on my feed--cuz I like so many of your suggestions! 7y

Jess7 Thanks! My favorite genres are: psychological fiction, memoirs (preferably with a little humor) and some literary fiction - but I like the feel good type books in this category or ones that make me look at life differently. 7y
jenniferw88 You are welcome! 7y
Wbabdullah @jess7 yeah, I love a book that makes me reflect and offers me a new view on the world and life. 😍 7y

@Coffeek8 your box shipped today and should be there Tuesday! No picture because there was an item I didn't wrap and didn't want to spoil it! So I am using a picture of #Shadow instead 😺😸
