The Little Book of Lykke is a practical and uplifting guide to happiness by Meik Wiking, CEO of the Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen. Drawing on research, real-life examples, and insights from some of the world's happiest countries, the book explores what truly contributes to a happy and fulfilling life.
Wiking takes readers on a global journey, examining how different cultures approach well-being, community, trust, kindness, work-life balance, and everyday enjoyment. Through engaging stories and case studies from countries around the world, he identifies the habits, values, and social factors that help people lead happier lives.
Written in a warm, accessible style, the book offers simple ideas and practical advice for increasing happiness in daily life. It encourages readers to focus less on material success and more on relationships, shared experiences, gratitude, and meaningful connections with others.
