Hygge: Conscious Coziness as a Survival Strategy

On this week’s episode of Everyday Better, Meik joins Leah to discuss ‘hygge’ – a Danish word that loosely translates to “coziness.” Meik shares how he and other Danes prepare for winter each year by creating ultra-cozy indoor environments to support well-being. He also explains why hygge and happiness are interconnected and why simple pleasures are the key to happiness.
