In a materialistic world, where can I find meaning?

In his book [amazon_link id=”1857885341″ target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]The Future Files[/amazon_link], futurist Richard Watson outlines five current world trends. One of them he describes as a ‘renewed search for personal meaning’.

In this 6-part video series I’m exploring social trends that suggest spiritual questions are bubbling up from the souls of secular countries like the UK, US and Australia. In this 8 minute video, Part 2, I look at the rise of workplace spirituality, voluntourism and consumerism, and suggest that they are part of what Richard Watson is talking about.
