Monday Motivation with a Mood Board

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Leeds chapter.

Bonjour! I have created a mood board of images to motivate us through the deadly Monday blues. This week I have been inspired – or maybe a little obsessed – with the Danish term ‘hygge’ which is pronounced ‘hoo-ga’. The term is associated with cosiness, candles, family and minimalism. It relates to the Danish way of life where you enjoy life’s simple pleasures. As Denmark is said to be the happiest country in the world, this is definitely worth trying out! If you are interested in finding out more then read Meik Wiking’s The Little Book of Hygge. Wiking is the CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen… I wonder if I need a degree for that…
