The ancient wisdom of Stoicism provides profound insights into obtaining tranquility, virtue, equanimity, and psychological strength. While created long ago, its principles resonate today.
Hopefully this booklet has illuminated how Stoic practices can enhance modern cognitive, behavioral, and mindfulness-based therapies. There exists tremendous opportunity for integrating evidence-based approaches with time-tested wisdom.
For those interested in further study, abundant Stoic writings survive, including:
- Marcus Aurelius' Meditations
- Epictetus' Enchiridion and Discourses
- Seneca's Letters and Essays
- Cicero's On Ends and Tusculan Disputations
- Modern works like A Guide to the Good Life by William Irvine
I encourage you to further explore this rich philosophical tradition and find techniques and perspectives to enrich your path through both adversity and opportunity. By practicing wisdom, courage, self-mastery and finding meaning in service, may you discover the serenity promised by the Stoics centuries ago.
