Say hello to hygge: The Danish secret to happiness in life

It has been one of those years. From tragic terror attacks to the fiercely debated Brexit results and a seemingly endless celebrity death toll (David Bowie, Prince, Victoria Wood and Terry Wogan, to name just a few), is it any wonder a recent Telegraph headline asked: "Is 2016 really one of the worst years in history?"

So it seems that the stream of new books on hygge - the wellness trend originating from the world's happiest nation - couldn't have come at a better time.

Pronounced "hoo-gah", hygge is the Danish concept of living cosily and it's set to be the biggest trend in publishing since Marie Kondo urged us all to discover the joys of decluttering.
