When You’ve Outgrown the World Around You – Alan Watts || Alan Watts

There comes a time when the world you once fit into no longer feels like home. The conversations feel smaller, the ambitions emptier, and even the successes ring hollow. Alan Watts reminds us that this isn’t loss — it’s growth. What you’ve outgrown is not the world itself, but the version of yourself that once needed it to make sense.

In this deeply reflective lecture, Alan Watts explores the quiet space between endings and beginnings — when the familiar dissolves, and something vast and unnamed begins to emerge.

🌿 What You’ll Learn:
• Why outgrowing your surroundings is a sign of awakening
• How comfort can become a subtle form of imprisonment
• Why meaning shifts as consciousness expands
• How to let go of the identities that no longer fit
• The beauty of becoming no one in particular

Watts invites us to stop clinging to the old scaffolding of life and to trust the stillness that follows. Growth often feels like loneliness only because you’re shedding what no longer serves the deeper rhythm of your becoming.
