Author of quotes: Louisa Thomsen Brits

We make the mistake of believing that the material foundations give us more than the people around us.

By developing the habit of balance, moderation and observation, and caring for others, we subtly fill our daily lives with hygge.

after the 19th century the Danes had to cede a significant part of their territories <...>, they began to identify themselves with a small space and the surrounding landscape. <...> In search of self-determination of the nation, they looked inside themselves; the importance of the inner world has become an undeniable reality for them.

An essential component of hygge is the theme of a closed, safe space where nothing will stop you from enjoying a moment of peace of mind. In order to feel safe, you need to know well the place where you are, all its nooks and crannies. Almost any place can become a refuge, the boundaries of which we clearly understand, without fear of unwanted intrusion.
