It might sound counterintuitive that we should have chosen one day to celebrate happiness. The fact, however, is that in a milieu where we tend to celebrate material progress (and frequently link happiness to it alone), we do not recognize the importance of happiness in our lives enough. Any start is, therefore, great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Established by the United Nations General Assembly on 28 June 2012, 193 United Nations member states adopted a resolution calling for happiness to be given greater priority. It recognized the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of people worldwide and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives. Importantly, it recognized the need for a balanced approach to economic growth that promotes sustainable development, poverty eradication, happiness, and the well-being of everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is interesting to know that the resolution was initiated by Bhutan, a country that has recognized the value of national happiness over national income and famously adopted the goal of Gross National Happiness over Gross National Product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United Nations invites everyone of any age, classroom, business, and government to celebrate the International Day of Happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_69_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/celebrating-international-day-of-happiness\/#Theme_for_2025\" title=\"Theme for 2025\">Theme for 2025<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/celebrating-international-day-of-happiness\/#Why_is_this_theme_important\" title=\"Why is this theme important?\">Why is this theme important?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/celebrating-international-day-of-happiness\/#1_Hygge\" title=\"1.

Sample some of these below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Hygge\"><\/span>1. Hygge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Denmark, happiness is about coziness and comfort. The concept is called Hygge. It could mean small things such as a warm fire or a good book, essentially anything that warms the soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Sisu\"><\/span>2. Sisu<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Finland, Sisu refers to resilience in the face of adversity. A part of the country\u2019s character, Finnish people take pride in the concept of Sisu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Niksen\"><\/span>3. Niksen<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Netherlands, the concept of Niksen, or the art of doing nothing, is popular. It is a refreshing break from the world which generally tends to glorify overexhaustion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Wabi-sabi\"><\/span>4. Wabi-sabi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Japanese concept of Wabi-Sabi is based on acceptance and takes it a step ahead to celebrate imperfection. It finds beauty in the natural state of things and embraces the beauty of aging and decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Shinrin-yoku\"><\/span>5. Shinrin-yoku<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again, in Japan, this concept means bathing in the forest. It involves mindfully walking, sitting in the forest, and being one with nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Craic\"><\/span>6. Craic<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Ireland, Craic refers to having a good time with friends, which is replete with loud conversations, laughing, and having fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Entruckt\"><\/span>7. Entr\u00fcckt<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Germany, entr\u00fcckt is about being lost in thought and in your mind. It encourages daydreaming, being lost in thought, and also being meditative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Estrenar\"><\/span>8. Estrenar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A seemingly simple concept, it is popular in Spain and is about using or wearing something for the first time. Think of the soft fluffiness of a new sweater or the smile that a new flattering piece of clothing brings to your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Siesta\"><\/span>9. Siesta<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, it is a legitimate source of happiness. Siesta is a proven method in Spain to relieve stress and recharge your mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Flaner\"><\/span>10. Fl\u00e2ner<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In France, the concept is popular. It simply means strolling around without a rush in the world. Unlike the oft-promoted concept of having a purpose, this concept allows you to let your feet take you where you will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_Lagom\"><\/span>11. Lagom<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Sweden, this concept is about approaching life with moderation. That is what brings simplicity and balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_Meraki\"><\/span>12. Meraki<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Greece, this is about giving undivided attention to every task, big or small. It means taking on every task with a lot of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Happiness-1024x577.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7887\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Happiness-1024x577.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Happiness-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Happiness-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Happiness.webp 1201w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_sum_up\"><\/span>To sum up<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There you go. Celebrating happiness this International Day of Happiness and every other day. For really, happiness is all around. This does not mean that the challenges of life will not strike. The idea is not to be unduly overwhelmed by them but to continue to enjoy life, irrespective.
