Part of the process of finding meaning in life is emptying out the bags of misinformation about who we are. AA and other programs can turn us around in this way.
When we get through much of that false sense of who we are, we can get that sense of emptiness. It may be a time to begin the process of building a stronger, healthier sense of self. How? that can vary with each individual. Some people practice yoga (youtube had many but Adrienne is a favorite) others begin service to others. Some people find creative expression. Others find a joy in work either volunteer or paid. It is really what is in each person's heart. If we find a way to express what is in the heart, then even the emptiness when it leaks in has a subtleness that can be better than before.
