What are "COZE exercises"? Google isn't giving me anything.

Good article, its useful to see how these techniques are actually applied.

This is a CFAR-specific term, I think; it's short for "comfort zone expansion." Things like talking to strangers. The closest googleable analogue might be rejection therapy.

In bullfighting there is a term called querencia. The querencia is the spot in the ring to which the bull returns. Each bull has a different querencia, but as the bullfight continues, and the animal becomes more threatened, it returns more and more often to his spot.As he returns to his querencia, he becomes more predictable. And so, in the end, the matador is able to kill the bull because instead of trying something new, the bull returns to what is familiar. His comfort zone.
