When you get in from work, change into a comfortable outfit that FEELS like you’re home. And if that’s your PJs, then go for it. The length of time you have to play is something that will affect the type of game you choose. You cannot fit a six-hour game into thirty minutes no matter how fast you play. If you typically have just an hour or two, then it’s best to stay away from complex strategy games which can take several hours. In this case, opt for a game with a short playing time. Scandinavian hygge is all about soft smells and candlelight. This set of three candles from SKAN D NA VISK is the perfect introduction to a Danish lifestyle. Ultimately, all you need is to spend more time doing the things you love, in places where you feel the most comfortable.

Some people say that hygge comes from a Norwegian word meaning wellbeing. Others suggest that Hygge stems from the Old Norse word, Hyggja. Hygge may also refer to the Old Norse word for hug, which is “hugr”. Head to the coast. Feel the sand between your toes and soak up the feelgood negative ions. The beach isn’t just for summer. Here in Scotland we go to the beach year-round. The big skies and crisp light are really beneficial during the short winter days.

Spring Hygge

Turn a dark spot into a cozy corner with a battery-operated candle or lantern. Many of them have timers so they automatically turn on at the same time every day. 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.

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. Hygge is all about comfort, peace, and happiness. That means that the definition can differ depending on who you ask. To make a gaekkebrev, take a piece of paper and fold it in half, and then half again. Cut out tiny shapes so that when that paper is opened, it displays an intricate pattern. It is very similar to a paper snowflake. The sender then writes a short poem or rhyme inside (see below for an example) and signs their name with dots instead of letters. They send it to a friend or someone in their family. If their identity remains a secret, they are awarded a chocolate Easter egg. Many Danish people agree that candles are some of the most important features in creating a “hyggelig” atmosphere.

Recreating Danish hygge happiness

You don’t have to travel to Denmark and snuggle up in the cold weather at winter to discover the value of hygge. Spending more candlelit moments in your home could be enough to take your happiness to the next level. Though tough to explain (and even tougher to pronounce), hygge is earning a lot of attention lately. Host an afternoon tea – possibly the most hygge meal of all! Don’t forget a pretty cake stand to make it feel a little extra special. Reading is a naturally hygge activity, but make it even more so with books such as The Little Book of Hygge by Meik Wiking. I also have his new book, My Hygge Home, on my wishlist! Hygge embodies a feeling of comfort, contentment, and well-being through simple and everyday experiences. It encompasses a range of feelings and experiences related to coziness, togetherness, and an appreciation for life’s small pleasures.
