Nordic Wisdom: Simplify your life and cultivate well-being

Take inspiration from the HAPPIEST countries in the world and live a more BALANCED, HEALTHY and PEACEFUL life.

The Nordic approach to life has captured our imaginations and it's easy to see why – from the Danish embrace of cosy living (hygge) to the Swedish emphasis on balance and simplicity (lagom). In this beautifully illustrated guide, Elisabeth Carlsson, a Swede who has lived in the UK for many years, shares the key elements and philosophies of the Nordic lifestyle.

Explore the core values that shape Nordic well-being, from creating harmony between work and home life to adopting sustainable habits that benefit both you and the environment. Delve into wellness practices, like sauna rituals, and find inspiration in Nordic cuisine, focusing on simple, seasonal ingredients and preparing meals as an act of self-care. Embracing nature is another vital aspect of the Nordic way of life: learn how connecting with your surroundings can bring peace and balance, even during long, dark winters.

Filled with practical ideas and thoughtful insights, Nordic Wisdom offers a clear path to a healthier, happier way of living.
