Lagom has been described by Elle as 'the more sustainable and enjoyable lifestyle we'll all be wanting in 2017'. Live Lagom is a practical lifestyle guide based on the Swedish philosophy of Lagom. Meaning "just the right amount", the concept can be applied to every aspect of your life and promotes balance. At a time when we are all concerned with saving money, feeling less stressed, acting more consciously towards our environment as well as creating our ideal homes and careers, Lagom offers an insight into how one of the happiest and most satisfied countries and cultures achieves this balance in day to day life. With chapters covering Home, Work and Health, the practice of Lagom is explained in traditional and practical terms, and includes advice and tips on how to find your happy medium. This is the book to make you enjoy the moment, and not only accept what you already have but also to make the most of it.
