an area of thinking, behaviour and/or experience to which we confine ourselves, because we do not wish to feel uneasy
a psychological condition created in our childhood that makes us feel in control, approved, and safe
Area on the psychrometric chart that shows conditions of temperature, humidity, and sometimes air movement in which most people feel comfortable.
A mental state that one arrives at and stops growing for numerous reasons, most likely because of fear.
That state of mind and emotion which says your preparation effort and application is GOOD ENOUGH. Comfort zones are guaranteed to rapidly result in stagnation and deterioration. Stagnation may indeed be good enough if your goals are low, but deterioration is fatal and will only be a matter of an unknown number of days away - certainly less than you think. You cannot recognize comfort zones - they produce their own soporific masking agents. The only immunization is to make yourself allergic to them by never allowing satisfaction. Your coach has an aversion to them which produces uncontrollable shaking; learn to recognize the symptoms and quickly supply the anti-dotes - deliberate practice and purposeful racing.
The range of temperatures, humidities and air velocities at which the greatest percentage of people feel comfortable.
The range of temperatures over which the majority of persons feel comfortable (neither too hot nor too cold).
(Also called comfort standard.) The ranges of indoor temperature, humidity, and air movement, under which most persons enjoy mental and physical well-being. As represented on comfort charts of the American Society of Heating and Air Conditioning Engineers, comfort zones are areas bounded by curves of effective temperature and relative humidity. The limiting conditions vary somewhat according to season and to the native climate of the person or group. In the United States the comfort zone with normal ventilation lies between air temperatures of about 17° and 24°C (63° and 75°F) at a relative humidity of 70%, and 19°C (67°F) at a relative humidity of 30%, giving an effective temperature within a few degrees of 19°C (67°F). The limits, however, vary with the season, being higher in summer than in winter. In the United Kingdom, the comfort zone is centered on an effective temperature of about 16°C (60°F). In the Tropics the comfort zone lies between the same limits of relative humidity, but at air temperatures around 26°C (78°F). Compare comfort curve.
The term comfort zone is used to denote a type of mental conditioning resulting in artificially created mental boundaries, within which an individual derives a sense of security.
Comfort Zone is the first studio album by Sector Seven. It was released in 1999 by Raw Energy.
