Bringing Hygge into your life this Spring!!!

The Danish word Hygge (pronounced Hoo-ga) does not have an equivalent word in English, but means a feeling of cosiness and wellbeing.  We know that in the winter this means being warm, curling up in front of a fire......basically being comfortable in your surroundings.  Think a delicious hot cup of coffee, reading a good book and just enjoying life's simple pleasures.  In the spring to get that same feeling of wellbeing get outside and enjoy nature at it's best.  Take a walk through the woods, breathe in the fresh spring air, open your windows , plant flowers and bring some inside. Danes believe that to live a hyggelig life you need to get rid of things that do not bring you joy. The Danes are listed as the happiest nation in the world. Maybe by taking on some of their ways of living we can add to our own happiness!!  Think about what makes you feel good and give it a try!!!!
