the uninspired state

Greetings from the Uninspired State; a landing spot for those with a head full of unmotivated bees.

ICYMI: We’re currently touring the three void states (plus one bonus chill state) in the Holisticism extended universe with a full tour and a quiz as a framework to help creative, intuitive folks either embrace or evacuate the circumstances they feel stuck in.

We’ll be adding to this document as we build out the Void State Extended Universe so make sure to check back and go spelunking for the good stuff.

You might be in the Uninspired Void State if…

• You feel more stuck than a protagonist in quicksand in a late 90s movie (why was it always quicksand?)

• Your go-to dopamine hits have lost their luster — Criminal Minds fan fic feels blah, your fave rom com seems overplayed, and trips to the Internet Mall feel downright icky

• You’re bored! Nothing seems to capture your attention for longer than 17 seconds

• The Walking Dead zombies have more pep in their step w.r.t. their (after) life purpose

• You look around and think, "Is this it?”

• Your life has had a surprising dearth of synchronicities, magical experiences, or transcendent moments lately

  

Scenes from the Uninspired Void State

A manifesto for the Uninspired

If you’ve been feeling like the titular diva in the Diva Down meme, do not fret! We (royal We) know that this funk too shall pass. Right now, though, the general Cathy comic blehk feeling you have is making you question whether or not a worm ate part of your brain.

When the your classique inspiring tricks are no longer hitting, the Uninspired void is an invitation from the universe to get a lil’ freaky with it.

Your joie de vivre is on its way (I’m watching on Find My Friends)! Here’s how you can make space for it to saunter right in:

• Add a bit of magic — make up your own tarot spread, lose hours to analyzing your Matrix of Destiny, create a piece of art for your altar. It doesn’t have to be Perfect, it just has to be

• Embrace chance and constraints — instead of waiting for a burst of inspo, give yourself hyper-specific prompts and stick to them

• Do any amount of The Artist’s Way (literally ole faithful)

Ready to skedaddle out of the Uninspired Void? Here are resources to help.

COURSE: The Subconscious Audit

If you’re feeling bone-deep BORED and unable to shake it, there is likely something going on below the surface. The Subconscious Audit is perfect for noticing patterns that are no longer serving you and experimenting with changes.

WORKSHOP: Spiritual Operating System

If you’ve tiptoed out of the uninspired void, now is the poifect time to create your Spiritual OS. Remembering who you are and what you believe in can help you figure out what to do next when you’re feeling bleh.
