Find Your Purpose Using Science: Planet Purpose Collaboration with Dr. Gleb Tsipursky
Planet Purpose collaborated with Dr. Gleb Tsipursky, author of Find Your Purpose using Science, for their 21-Day Purpose Challenge, as their Science Advisor.
Columbus, OH, October 11, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Can science really help people define and understand the purpose of life and teach them how to live a meaningful one? Planet Purpose Organization (www.purposeplanet.weebly.com), created a curriculum, 21-Day Purpose Challenge, to guide and teach others to live a life with purpose, wherein they collaborated with Dr. Gleb Tsipursky, the author of Find Your Purpose Using Science, as their Science Advisor for their challenge. Dr. Tsipursky is a tenure-track professor at Ohio State University. As a historian of science, he researches the intersection of history, psychology, and cognitive neuroscience, focusing on meaning and purpose, decision-making, emotions, and agency. He is also a science popularizer, a best-selling author, and president of the nonprofit organization Intentional Insights (www.intentionalinsights.org). His workbook combines an engaging narrative, stories from people’s lives, and research-informed exercises designed to help people cultivate a rich sense of meaning and purpose.
Planet Purpose Organization and Dr. Tsipursky are collaborating around his workbook and other content, focusing on whether science can really answer life’s big questions, such as “why am I here?” and “what is the purpose of life for me?” and also to teach others to communicate with purpose. These questions, as Dr. Tsipursky describes in his work, have become answerable due to a recent wave of research in psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and medicine. The findings reveal three science-informed strategies for finding purpose and living a meaningful life. The first set of strategies stem from the work of Victor Frankl, a Viennese psychiatrist who lived through the Holocaust concentration camps. In his research and work, both in the camps and afterward in private practice, he found that, in order for individuals to survive and thrive, it is crucial for each to self-reflect on their sense of purpose and meaning in life. The second set of strategies stems from studies showing that people have a greater sense of meaning and purpose in life when they are part of a community and have strong social bonds. The third comes from extensive research that demonstrates how opportunities to serve others, whether in civic, charitable, private, or professional settings, results in a stronger sense of purpose and meaning in life. This sense of purpose, in turn, leads to better mental and physical well-being.
The workbook describes these strategies in much greater depth, with a free book version available at http://intentionalinsights.org/book-find-your-purpose-using-science. It was published by Intentional Insights, a nonprofit devoted to inspiring people to refine and reach their goals. This nonprofit provides research-based content to help improve thinking, feeling, and behavior patterns. Intentional Insights also offers free online classes, videotaped workshops, blogs, and other content on meaning and purpose, as well as in a variety of other topics.
