    When Life Hurts, Let Go | A Stoic Lesson for Inner Peace

    Epictetus believed that happiness and inner peace are entirely within our power. This video delves into the actual cause of our suffering and how we can overcome it and develop unshakable inner peace-a goal entirely within our power (according to Epictetus).Video: When Life Hurts, Let Go | A Stoic Lesson for Inner PeaceSupport the channel:

  • The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness Paradox | Einzelgänger

    The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness Paradox

    Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/The less we try to think about a blue elephant, the more likely this creature persists in residing in our thoughts. Imagine the blue elephant represents our unhappiness - our dissatisfaction with life - hence the color blue. Obviously, no one likes feeling blue, and when we experience it, we’re likely to try getting rid of it. But the more we try to push it away, the bigger the blue elephant seems to become.Video: The Less You Seek, The More You’ll Find | The Happiness ParadoxSupport the channel:

  • Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What? | Einzelgänger

    Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What?

    Philosophers have been dealing with the problem of meaninglessness for centuries. Their ideas about life (or how to live well in a meaningless universe) could be valuable to those struggling with a lack of meaning in their lives. Can we live well as humans when life has no inherent purpose? According to several philosophers: yes, we can. And, according to some, we should. After all, if life loses meaning, there’s still life.Video: Lost in a World Without Purpose: Now What?Support the channel:

  • Stop Trying to Get It And You'll Have It | The Backwards Law | Einzelgänger

    Stop Trying to Get It And You'll Have It | The Backwards Law

    Taoism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/tao/The backwards law proposes that the more we pursue something, the more we achieve the opposite of what we truly want and the more disappointed we feel. Or simply put: the harder we try, the less likely we’ll succeed. On the flip side: when we stop trying, we’ll have what we want.Now, how exactly does this backwards law work in practice? Or more specifically: how exactly do we get what we want, by not trying to get what we want? This video explores the backwards law and its paradoxical nature, as well as the cause of our ongoing dissatisfaction in life, and how we can liberate ourselves from it.Support the channel:

    Why We Are Weak | The Philosophy of Epictetus

    Full video: https://youtu.be/p2KHo95QknkWhat matters and doesn’t matter, according to Epictetus, is bound to the reality of our place as reasonable beings in an everchanging environment. This reality Epictetus makes clear in the underlying tenet of his work: ‘the dichotomy of control.’ Some things are in our control, others not. If we manage to concern ourselves with the things in our control, we are in a position of strength. But if we neglect these things and focus on what’s not in our control, we are in a position of weakness.#stoicism #epictetus #stoic

  • When Life Hurts, Stop Clinging to It | The Philosophy of Epictetus | Einzelgänger

    When Life Hurts, Stop Clinging to It | The Philosophy of Epictetus

    Stoicism for Inner Peace (book): https://einzelganger.co/innerpeaceOur very sense of wellbeing is at gunpoint when we cling to the fickle, unreliable outside world. Around two thousand years ago, Stoic philosopher Epictetus observed that people are burdened and dragged down because they tend to care about too many things. His cure, however, is not to stop caring altogether but to care about the right things and stop clinging to anything that doesn’t matter.What matters and doesn’t matter according to Epictetus is bound to the reality of our place as reasonable beings in an everchanging environment. This reality Epictetus makes clear in the underlying tenet of his work: ‘the dichotomy of control.’ Some things are in our control, others not. If we manage to concern ourselves with the things in our control, we are in a position of strength.But if we neglect these things, and focus on what’s not in our control, we are in a position of weakness. Especially when we cling to what’s not up to us, we set ourselves up for a life of suffering. But what are those things that we cling to? And why is it better to let go of them? This video explores the philosophy of Epictetus, and what we, according to him, should focus on to be happy and content, and what we should let go of, and how we do this.Support the channel:
