What if we were programmed to follow someone else's footsteps and didn't have the opportunity to discover and understand different cultures and lifestyles that may completely change our understanding about what we really need and how we visualize that perfect life? In this profound book bundle, I would like to present to you two of these lifestyles. One is called minimalism, and another is Hygge. You may have already heard about them somewhere and thought that it wasn't for you. But trust me, you need to do it yourself first if you want to understand and experience it.

Why are Danes the happiest people in the world? The answer, says Meik Wiking, CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, is hygge. Loosely translated, hygge - pronounced hoo-ga - is a sense of comfort, togetherness, and well-being. "Hygge is about an atmosphere and an experience," Wiking explains. "It is about being with the people we love. A feeling of home. A feeling that we are safe."

Hygge is a Danish word used when recognizing a trend or moment, regardless of whether or not together with company, either in home or outdoors, rare or habitual as cozy, beguiling, or unique. It only requires cognizance, specific gradualness, as well as the capacity to become available, understand, and appreciate the present. In this audiobook, I briefly explain the benefits, basics, and details of this lifestyle.

A nutritious diet is very essential. There should be a lot of fruit and vegetables. Keep away from unhealthy food. Stay away from junk and processed food. Don't take fatty or fried food too much. Eat healthily. Take steamed meat and barbecue. Stay away from smoking and liquor. Exercise is a must for a healthy life. But most of the time it is difficult to go to the gym because of the jam-packed schedules. You can train even without going to the gym. You can spend a few minutes on a quick walk to the next bus stop.

My favorite Hygge book...
Loved this audiobook so much I had to have one for myself. Something about it gives you that warm fuzzy feeling. I've listen a handful of audiobooks on this subject that seem to fall flat. It got a spot on my nightstand with a couple of other favorite audiobooks.
