In this episode of Meditations: A Stoic Podcast, we explore Book VIII of Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations, focusing on how Stoic wisdom can help us navigate life’s challenges. From dealing with worry and pleasure to embracing the present moment, Marcus teaches us to avoid unnecessary anxiety and to live with greater virtue. We’ll reflect on powerful metaphors and Stoic principles that are just as relevant today as they were in Ancient Rome. Plus, we’ll give you a practical exercise to help break the cycle of anticipatory stress. Tune in for timeless insights and strategies for a more peaceful, purposeful life.
