How to Create a Hygge Routine to Support Your Wellbeing This Season

Seasonal change can have a real impact on how we feel and function. It is more noticeable when the clocks are going back and daylight is disappearing earlier.

During this time, many people notice a dip in energy, motivation or mood. They can start to withdraw into themselves and can find it harder to get going, stay focused, and stay socially connected.

Although this is a situation that happens every year, many still find the transition difficult to cope with.

So, instead of pushing through or trying to ignore it, this is an opportunity to create a Hygge routine, a gentle, grounding approach that brings comfort, calm and steadiness to your everyday life.

You may well have heard of the concept of Hygge already. It comes from Danish culture, but you don’t need to live the Scandinavian lifestyle to practise it.

Hygge is simply about creating an environment and rhythm that supports your emotional well-being.

This is about feeling safe, nourished, rested and connected, not about creating a picture-perfect cosy aesthetic.
