Publisher's Summary

Is your life so crazy busy that you don’t even remember the last time you sat down and got to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea? 

Remember those carefree days when you sat for hours talking with your girlfriends or your buddies without interruption? Remember how you felt? Happy. Relaxed. Content. Comfortable. It was just you and them. 

That level of happiness is Hygge. 

Hygge (pronounced hue-guh) is the simple, stress-free lifestyle that the Danish and Norwegians have been living for centuries. Denmark and Norway both regularly rank in the top three happiest countries in the world and Hygge is the main reason why. 

Hygge has more to do with the emotional happiness experienced by developing a relaxed, stress-free way of life and less to do with acquiring monetary possessions. 

In this book, you will be shown how you can easily implement the Hygge way of life regardless of where you live and the amount of money in your bank account. 

Learn how everyday interactions with friends and family can help you practice the principles of Hygge. 

Even with today’s hectic lifestyle, that simple, stress-free lifestyle is something that can easily be obtained. By simply making one small change a day, you can easily live the Hygge lifestyle. Best of all, this book shows you how these changes don’t have to cost you anything. 

Hygge encourages you to value moments and experiences over money and meaningless possessions. 

To help you easily incorporate Hygge into your life, a 21 Days of Hygge Challenge is included in the book. In just three short weeks, you can replace your harried life with one of calm and tranquility. 

It is never too late to start living the calming Hygge lifestyle. Get your copy today to start the 21 Days of Hygge Challenge and start living the relaxed, less stressful Hygge lifestyle.

C3P0 huffs helium and narrates

I could not get through even 10 minutes of this. For a book about calming mindfulness the narration is robotic and rushed. The question and answer format was off putting.

Just what I needed

I heard about this in a podcast I was listening to and I bought it right after. I am going to give the 21 day challenge a go and see what happens.
What if it changes my life in any small way? I'm reading to find out.

She speaks too fast!

The idea of the book is nice but the narrator is not great. she speaks fast, as if she wants to finish the chapter as soon as possible. hard to enjoy it.
