Expand that comfort zone! I’m trying to upgrade from a pool full of shit to a lake this year…

I like that, Carolina. Especially to be aware that we have to expand the capacity of our nervous system - to bring the body along - so it can hold things that go beyond ourselves, until they kind of become ourselves.

Isn't it freeing to think about comfort zones in this way? We have power over them, instead of them having the power to keep us stuck! Thank you for sharing!

It’s as though we’ve found comfort in the stress - This made me realize that the "comfort zone" isn't about actual comfort but about familiar stress patterns. So good Carolina! 👏

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the comfort zone! It's an inquiry I'm engaged in too, right now. I was reminded of this quote from Jen Sincero: 'the walls of your comfort zone are lovingly decorated with your lifelong collection of favorite excuses.'
