About this eBook

THE INTERNATIONAL, NEW YORK TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, WITH OVER A MILLION COPIES SOLD WORLDWIDE

Guaranteed to bring warmth and comfort into your life, The Little Book of Hygge is the book we all need.

Denmark has an international reputation for being one of the happiest nations in the world, and hygge is widely recognised to be the magic ingredient.

Hooga? Hhyooguh? Heurgh? It is not really important how you pronounce or even spell it. What is important is that you feel it. Whether you're cuddled up on a sofa with a loved one, or sharing comfort food with your closest friends, hygge is about creating an atmosphere where we can let your guard down.

The definitive, must-read introduction to Hygge, written by Meik Wiking, CEO of the Happiness Research Institute, this book is packed full of original research, recipes and ideas to help you add a touch of hygge to your life.

Ratings and reviews

Easy to read, relaxed informal writing style but factual and contained science, stats etc at the same time. Easy to pick up again after picking it up again as it's not a heavy read. Really enjoyable

Exceptional book. I personally loved the way it was set out and taught me a lot about hygge. I’ve learned a lot through this book and definitely will be reading this frequently.

Easy to read with good practical ways to adopt hygge into everyday life!
