How to Hygee: The Nordic Secret to Happiness

Event Details

Get HYGGE with us! Pronounced "hue-gah," this Danish expression is an attitude towards life that emphasizes finding joy in everyday moments. Rather than drudge through the winter, hygge is about celebrating coziness, warmth and family, as well as practicing mindfulness. See below for the day's itinerary. Join us for one event or more.
