PROMPT: Comfort

What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life?

I don’t, but I have a lot of strategies for being more content in the face of various situations and environments — including uncomfortable ones. These include the yogic practice of dispassionate witnessing, minimalism, travel (and specifically minimalist travel to places – the less familiar the better,) and intense physical activity.

I think comfort as a major objective in life is overrated, and virtually insures a discontented life. A life in which one can be content, whatever may come along, is a happy life.

  1. depends on your definition of comfort; I live in a small 2-berth caravan; have removed the second berth mattress and now use the space as /for book shelf and desk space. That makes it more comfort-able. I need to stretch my injured leg before I get up in the morning, so having a soft squishy cushion standing against the second berth is comfort as I don’t have to put my bare foot against the wooden corner there.
