ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Comfort

Comfort is when you feel good and happy because you are cozy, safe, and relaxed. Imagine being wrapped up in a warm blanket with your favorite stuffed animal, listening to soothing music, and feeling like everything is okay in the world. That is what comfort feels like. It can be physical, like sitting in a soft chair or sleeping on a comfortable bed, or emotional, like being with people who love you and make you feel good about yourself. When we feel comfortable, we are content and at ease, which helps us to feel less stressed and anxious.
