Hygge is a philosophy that is built on the premise that an atmosphere and experience that is rooted on love, feelings of home, and security is key to living a fulfilled life.

Hygge is centered on ten principles: Atmosphere, Presence, Pleasure, Equality, Gratitude, Harmony, Comfort, Truce, Togetherness and, Shelter.

I felt like just listening to the book was Hygge! I loved the content and the sound of the narrator's voice is so soothing! I finished the book on my commute home last night and was kind of melancholy that I had completed it, it's been truly enjoyable.

Love it!

I’ve never heard of hygge before but recently I did see that Denmark has consistently been ranked as one of the happiest places in the world so I decided to give this a listen. Once again Rita Hayes has written a simple yet interesting book about improving your life so you can also achieve a sense of happiness or hygge. I thought the suggestions in this book were very useful and not at all too complicated to incorporate into my daily life. While listening to the narrator’s voice I realized that this book gave me a great deal of hygge and I instantly knew that listening to other audiobooks while tucked away under pillows and blankets would definitely be on my list of things to make my life cozy. If you’re interested in finding ways to make your life more comfortable and achieve a sense of wellbeing/happiness while also learning a bit about Danish culture give this a listen!

A great introduction to hygge!

The narrator did an amazing job narrating in a simple, easy-to-understand language, making the concept of this book clear. There's an introduction explaining what you're expecting from this audiobook. Followed by four chapters, each one has its own theme. Chapter 1: Hygge for self-care, etc. The author did an excellent job creating this audiobook with the Danish secret to happiness and well-being in your life. I didn't know that the people of Denmark are considered the happiest in the world. That is something new I learn today. I had some questions popping into my head. What? are other secrets do Danish people have besides being happy? Did you know that Danish people believe that Hygge is a philosophy that is built on the premise that an atmosphere and experiences that are rooted in love. That is very interesting to know. If you want to know more about Hygge, I recommend that you too listened to this audiobook. It will help you to learn more about their secrets and how they can help you. Archive your own happiness. I give it more than five stars.

Having never heard of Hygge I thought this book was an excellent introduction what it is all about. My husband is a minimalist and I tend to enjoy my clutter and I think applying Hygge, focusing on each of us having our sense of comfort will really be a game changer in each of us being happier. Love how Hygge is to be adapted to your own way of life instead of trying to fit into a lifestyle.
Really enjoyed the narrator.

Focus on true self care.
