I wrote another article for Channel Void, this one’s written from recurring personal experience and is about working through existential crises.

“If you’re reading this, you have to believe it’s going to be fine even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. Trust me, I’ve been through a stack of these and things are not what they seem. If I can get through them, you can too. You will be alright.

Existential crises are sneaky. They start with a small innocent enough thought, or maybe a particular event pokes it awake. You didn’t get into the course you wanted, didn’t get that dreamy job, your story was rejected, your partner broke up with you. Whatever it is, a sense of boundless despair rolls in like a summer storm.

However you ended up in existential agony, take a moment right now for some self-care. Put the kettle on and have a cuppa, meditate, drink some water, do some exercise, go for a quick dip in the sea – do whatever helps you take some deep breaths, calm your mind and focus your attention. A short escape before you get to work making things better.“

Read the full article here and share it with anyone you think might enjoy reading it, especially young people.

Lifted from their about page, “Channel Void exists to challenge the abrasion of life as a thinking, feeling, sensual entity, by providing a universe of education, tools, art and entertainment, accessible to every level of awareness. We believe that being a young person in 2020 has left a void in heart, mind, body and soul. The nature of many lives today, lacking in ritual, intergenerational mentorship, storytelling and connection to earth, has bred disconnection and dissociation from self and others.”
