Frequently Asked Questions
Why doesn't my life feel "meaningful" right now?
Because you are "Removing the Demand for Meaning." In the Recovered Meaning Era, meaning is a byproduct, not a requirement. Demanding that every moment feel significant is an Expectation-Loop that causes burnout. Being here "without expecting meaning" allows your nervous system to rest. You are a biological organism first, and a "meaning-maker" second. Neutrality is the foundation of recovery.
Is it okay to just "be" without a "why"?
It is essential. If you can't be "without a why," you are always "performing" for a reason. Realizing that your Value is independent of "Meaning" is the ultimate Safety Signal. It allows you to inhabit the "Zero-Verdict Space" where true restoration happens. Meaning will return on its own, but only after you stop demanding its presence.
