COMFORT
The familiar meaning
Freedom from discomfort.
Let's look again.
What if comfort is the feeling of being held safely enough to meet life? Sometimes we need softness, shelter, familiarity and predictability. We also need movement, challenge, wonder and the unfamiliar. A life organised around avoiding discomfort or effort can become smaller and less alive. Perhaps the deepest comfort gives us a safe place from which to meet life's challenges.
A HomeBeing definition:
Comfort is the experience of enough support to relax, regain balance and remain engaged.
