With the novelty of the New Year slowly wearing off and most people settling back into their daily routines, this season can be among the hardest of the year. The winter can be a tough time for everyone, including both you and your kids. Long and cold nights, the middle of the school year, and the sun seemingly hiding for days on end, there’s never been a better time to find that little extra bump of serotonin.
Recently, the Danish philosophy of Hygee (pronounced hoo-ga) has been trending around the world as a way to not just get through the winter, but truly enjoy it. Award winning author and CEO of The Happiness Research institute Meik Wiking describes Hygee as, “everything from ‘the art of creating intimacy,’ ‘coziness of the soul,’ and ‘the absence of annoyance,’ to ‘taking pleasure from the presence of soothing things,’ ‘cozy togetherness,’ and my personal favorite, ‘cocoa by candlelight’.”
The picture Wiking paints is one of tranquil nights spent by the fire, sipping on a hot drink, and maybe polishing off the night with a relaxing bubble bath. Despite sounding like a too good to be true practice that only the upper class can use, the practice of Hygee is actually quite obtainable and can help both you and your child beat the wintertime blues.
