Seeking Meaning and Purpose?
Don't give up

This Website offers a different approach to meaning and purpose - one based on psychological research that identified the defining constituents of what it is actually like to live without it and what were the essential factors in the process of people who have found meaning and purpose after being without it for long periods.
What the Research Found
Meaninglessness?
is Living without Value
Purposelessness?
Being without valued and achievable goals
What traps you in meaninglessness is
A Self-concept that has been choked by past experience
So you expect
you cannot experience value
due to things that stop you knowing
Your dependable strengths
or
What you value
or prevent you
Marching to to your own drum

Are you
Just existing,
Routinely going through the motions ?
Missing something?
Drifting through life,
a bit empty or even so empty
that nothing seems to matter?
Stuck,
with life not going anywhere
or maybe you have no idea
where you want it to go.
Or
Unsatisfied, unfulfilled
Despite achieving, self-help
& therapy
there's always
something missing.
If you are
This website is for you
The solution is to free your identity by expanding it and integrating what has been choked out, especially
-
Your dreams
-
Feelings that announce what you value
-
Dependable strengths that are present in things you enjoy doing
-
Your thinking and physical capacities.
Answers to questions of meaning and purpose often begin with philosophical ideas, religious beliefs, psychological theories or assumptions about how people ought to live.
Crafting Meaning and Purpose began differently. These influences were deliberately set aside in order to investigate meaning and purpose through careful psychological study of lived experience itself.
The research sought to identify what was common to experiences of meaninglessness — and to the pathways by which people developed lives experienced as meaningful and purposeful.
This website translates the findings into practical understanding, activities and resources, while also supporting further research into questions that emerged from them.
