What Is Hygge?<\/h2>\n

Hygge is a Danish word that has caught a lot of people’s attention in the past couple of years.<\/p>\n

Why it has spread so quickly is hard to say, but it could have to do with the headlines that Denmark is the happiest country in the world<\/a> and people want to know why and what they can do to be as happy as the Danes.<\/p>\n

With its increasing popularity comes commercial interest.<\/p>\n

Since people around the world are getting more interested in hygge, sellers have been looking for ways to make a profit by selling products that promise hygge and a happier life.<\/p>\n

But don’t be fooled by commercialism.<\/p>\n

Hygge can’t be bought or sold!<\/p>\n

Hygge is all about feeling present, cozy, and joy at the moment.<\/p>\n

You don’t have to (and probably shouldn’t) try to recognize it, as it can be a mix of feelings.<\/p>\n

There is no specific English word for it, but feeling comfort, safe, cozy, and reassurance are often part of feeling hygge.<\/p>\n

You can feel hygge anywhere in the world, in our out of your home, alone or with your friends and family.<\/p>\n

But how do you get to feel it? Well, have you ever felt comfortable and cozy? Then you’ve felt hygge.<\/p>\n

\"Hygge<\/p>\n

Remember, hygge can’t be bought or sold. It’s a feeling you can get for free by doing something that makes you feel hygge.<\/p>\n

Have you had a nice dinner with your family on a Saturday night where everybody was happy, and you just felt so good about where you were, then you’ve felt hygge.<\/p>\n

We need to promote hygge more in the United States but in the right way.<\/p>\n

Encouraging friends and family to take more time to sit and relax, have a fika<\/a>, and talk to each other.<\/p>\n

If we all could do this at least once a week, I bet the United States would quickly climb in the World Happiness Report.<\/p>\n
