“You were put on this planet to experience not accomplish”

MagicMurph on TikTok

Instead of aiming to discover the one thing you’re supposed to do with your life, you could focus on discovering the one thing you want to try right now, knowing that you can change direction any time.

Maybe that in itself can be a purpose—to live life in that vulnerable, uncertain place where you’re not boxed into one way of being; unencumbered by the need to define yourself and your place in the world; free to roam when it would feel much safer to tether yourself to one role.

This moment isn’t merely the bridge to where you want to be. This moment—this crucial part of the process—is a destination in itself, and now is your only opportunity to appreciate it, and appreciate yourself for living it.

When You Feel Purposeless and Fear You’re Wasting Time

Have you talked to AI about life meaning/ purpose?

I use ChatGPT for research and ideas. It is a mind-blowing tool that has access to humanity’s knowledge and can summarise it in seconds, you just have to ask the right questions. So, of course, I asked it some existential questions. ChatGPT is not sentient, it’s a language model, a tool, yet the summary it gave me was great (and would have taken me years of reading books to arrive at). Extracts of our chat – below.

Duality programme (energy work) with Jeffrey Allen

This may be one of those things that everyone is aware of and I am late to the party for 😊 I have seen Mind Valley ads before on YouTube but always assumed that it was some sort of scam. However, this time what the man on the screen, Jeffrey Allen, was saying actually made sense, appealed and I was intrigued.

Universe works in mysterious ways. I wanted to learn energy work for quite some time but didn’t expect to see it in a Youtube ad 😊 I attended a free masterclass (sign up here) and it was so good that I signed up for the Duality programme. I paid around £80 and completed it in a month.

Release into the void by Amara Strand 🖤

I can’t put in words the energetic power of the above meditation (to be listened in headphones only, not on speaker) or this accompanying post by Amara. For those who feel stuck in emptiness, who shed a lot of stuff and don’t know what next, who feel lost on their spiritual path, this may be the energetic push they need to see a new perspective, to get unblocked, to understand why they are stuck. Prepare to let go of everything 😊

Inner Child Healing. Affirmations.

Here are the loving words you can say to your inner child. I suggest to read these out slowly like a meditation. If you had a traumatic childhood and/or did not receive the love you needed in your early years, these words can bring emotional release and tears.

Welcome to the world, I've been waiting for you.
I'm so glad you are here.
I've prepared a special place for you to live.
I like you just the way you are.
I will not leave you, no matter what.
Your needs are okay with me.
I'll give you all the time you need to get your needs met.
I'm so glad you're a boy (or a girl).
I want to take care of you and I'm prepared to do that.
1 like feeding you, bathing you, changing you, and spending time with you.
In all the world, there has never been another like you.
God smiled when you were born.

Inner Child Healing. Wonder child meditation.

The wonder child urges us to continually expand. It calls us to more and more life. It says that life is growth, that to be human is to be overcoming. To be committed to life as growth and overcoming is to be willing to accept suffering and risk pain.

John Bradshaw, “Homecoming. Reclaiming and Championing Your Inner Child”

I did not expect to find an amazing meditation that both aims to reconnect one with their inner child and point them towards their life purpose in this book (above). It is voiced by yours truly. You will need to have your eyes closed and be in a safe space. It takes around 15 minutes.

Hole in a soul. The wounded inner child and emptiness.

Image generated by Midjourney (AI)

The wounded inner child also contaminates adult life with a low-grade chronic depression experienced as emptiness. The depression is the result of the child’s having to adopt a false self, leaving the true self behind. This abandonment of the true self amounts to having an empty place inside. I’ve referred to this as the “hole in one’s soul” phenomenon. When a person loses his authentic self, he has lost contact with his true feelings, needs, and desires. … Feeling empty is a form of chronic depression, as one is perpetually in mourning for one’s true self. … When our inner child is wounded, we feel empty and depressed. Life has a sense of unreality about it; we are there, but we are not in it. This emptiness leads to loneliness. Because we are never who we really are, we are never truly present. And even if people admire and hang on to us, we feel alone.

The girl who talked to birds and trees 

Dall•e AI generated

I wrote this story a while ago before I started inner child healing work. Like always with writing, it was my healing method. My way to embrace my wonder child. What weird and wonderful stuff were you into as a child? Have you tried writing/ journaling about your experiences?

* * *

That summer dad lost me twice. Mum was at the hospital with my baby sister and dad was doing his best working and looking after me and my brother. One time we were on our way to grandma and I got off the bus early. Dad noticed too late. The second time I came home from school, no one was home so I got on a bus and went across town to visit grandma. Oblivious of the consequences, I enjoyed tea in her fancy china cups and the yummy homemade jam made out of blackcurrants that we collected at her summer house.

Using tarot cards to get an idea of the life purpose

Did you know that you could use tarot cards to get an idea of what your life purpose might be? Neither did I. In my experience with tarot cards a lot depends on the card reader and how good at reading the energy they are.

Blue Morpho’s Hamilton Souther and Frankie Fihn on life purpose

Frankie Fihn on purpose
Hamilton Souther on purpose

Hamilton talks to a “fellow walker through Infinity” and successful digital marketer about his business and plant medicine journey, how he found himself, what he thinks life purpose is and how he defines success. You can see the complete talk here but it was their discussion on life purpose that I wanted to particularly bring out.

Life purpose as not something we have to await, receive or seek but something we have to act out on a daily basis, reflected in every tiniest decision and our values that we live by. When you know your values, you proactively shape the direction of your life and yes, you are living your purpose.
