Cultivating Courage | A Stoic Guided Meditation on Courage
Description
Welcome to Mindfully Stoic, a channel dedicated to increasing mindfulness through the lens of the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.
Today’s guided meditation is on the Stoic cardinal virtue of Courage. Stoic Courage can be defined by one's ability to live one’s principles and values despite opposition. It is the opposite of cowardice, or the running away from one’s fears and problems. For the stoic sage, vice is the only thing that should be feared because it is within our power to avoid. We might experience impressions or impulses of fear when our automatic, habitual responses take over momentarily. However, we can decide if we need to give assent to these impressions and act accordingly with courage. Now let’s begin.
