Dear Gaia:
No, no, living more is not about doing more, not in my book. There is a saying: we are human-beings, not human-doings. It is about that being- being calmer, not distressed and suffering. it is not about doing more.
“I either am overwhelmed by certain feelings or don’t feel nothing at all. Blank”- the brain/body automatically shuts down when it feels too intensely. So what you experience is the usual, natural.
“I either feel totally blank or like the inner child inside of me is basically non existent, a bit like my soul”- I feel your inner child/ soul as I type these words, and before too. I can see you, in my mind’s eye, you do exist, as a child and as a soul. You are way, way more than a thinking automation of sorts.
It is exciting for me to imagine you seeing this inner child/ soul yourself, seeing you, that is, for who you are!
