Hygge starts at home. If your life is in chaos, if your business is struggling, if you are constantly stressed, you have to start by evaluating your home first. When your home environment where you start and end your day is in disarray the rest of your life will follow suit.

Christmas has always been my favorite holiday. It was less about the day itself and more about the atmosphere and nostalgia surrounding the holiday for me. I didn’t have a name for the simple joy and comfort of Christmas back when I was little, but now I know those things can be summed up with hygge. Christmas combines intentional generosity, togetherness, and hospitality to create a holiday of peace and joy.
