Blacksburg Library presents DIY Hygge Hangout on Wednesday, January 30, 2019.
Join us for an evening of hygge, the Danish experience of "cozy togetherness" and "cocoa by candlelight". We'll have candles, cookies, and board games. Learn about and experience creating a hygge lifestyle for yourself.
Hygge (pronounced hue-guh not hoo-gah) is a Danish word used when acknowledging a feeling or moment, whether alone or with friends, at home or out, ordinary or extraordinary as cosy, charming or special.
It literally only requires consciousness, a certain slowness, and the ability to not just be present, but recognize and enjoy the present.
Danes created hygge because they were trying to survive boredom, cold, dark and sameness and the undefinable feeling of Hygge was a way for them to find moments to celebrate or acknowledge and to break up the day, months or years. With so many cold, dark, days, the simple act of a candle glowing with a cup of coffee in the morning or a home cooked evening meal with friends can make a huge difference to one’s spirit.
