Topics
Mel Robbins: 本期节目探讨了舒适感的重要性,它并非奢侈品,而是必需品。舒适感能让人保持稳定和精力充沛,帮助人们面对生活挑战,并促进大脑释放多巴胺,带来愉悦感和动力。舒适感和走出舒适区是相辅相成的,需要在两者之间取得平衡。持续地处于"努力"状态会导致倦怠,因此需要在"努力"和"休息"之间找到平衡。新的习惯、记忆和学习的巩固发生在休息和舒适的状态下。舒适感的仪式感能让人安心,带来可预测性,并帮助人们建立稳定性、专注力和力量。拥抱舒适感,不要为此感到羞愧。 Robert Waldinger: 人与人之间的联系和归属感至关重要,尤其是在需要安慰和支持的时候。人们需要一个可以随时返回的"安全基地",以便在面对风险和挑战时能够更好地恢复精力。 Oakley Robbins: 分享了他对童年玩偶和毯子的依恋,以及这些物品带给他的安全感和舒适感。他强调了在新的环境中拥有这些熟悉物品的重要性,以及这些物品如何帮助他适应大学生活。 Amy: 分享了她每天清晨进行冷水浴的习惯,这是一种意想不到的舒适感来源,能够帮助她放松身心,为一天的工作做好准备。 David, Christine, Tracy: 分享了他们各自的舒适感来源,例如新鲜割草的味道、特定的沙发位置以及图书馆的氛围等,这些都体现了舒适感的多样性和个性化。
