About the Author
Jeanine Byers has loved writing since she was the editor of her school's newspaper in first grade. She read her first self-help book when she was 12 years old and she decided that someday she would write one, too. She waited through college and grad school and training in several alternative healing modalities. She became a therapist, and then, a life coach, healer, spiritual director and homeschooling mom. She created therapeutic programs, healing systems, healing techniques, and lots of homeschooling lesson plans. Finally, she got tired of waiting to make her writing dream come true, and she has been writing happily ever since. She discovered hygge several years ago, along with the rest of America and felt an instant connection. Like so many others have said, she was doing it already. But diving into all things hygge helped her do it more and better. Jeanine is challenged by winter, too, and since she didn't see any books connecting the practice of hygge with lessening or eliminating winter blues symptoms, she decided to write one herself.
