A Case For Coziness

Say hello to hygge: A Danish lifestyle trend where the focus is on enjoying the simple things in life.

IF CURLING UP on the couch with a good book, a fluffy blanket and a mug of hot cocoa sounds like an ideal evening, you may be living a hygge-inspired life without even knowing it. Hygge (pronounced hue-gah) is a Danish term used to describe life’s simple pleasures. Recently, it’s grown into a full-blown lifestyle movement. However, unlike other wellness trends, hygge doesn’t require buying fancy equipment, following a handbook, or depriving oneself. There are no rules: Just do whatever makes you feel cozy, safe and comfortable.
