Viewing these feelings in this way can help us shift our thinking and allow us to more fully accept them when they come. We can see the important and crucial role that pain plays when it comes to experiencing joy.

  • Eudaimonia: A Guided Meditation to A Good Life

    Today’s meditation is all about the Stoic idea of eudaimonia. Eudaimonia for the stoics was the state of happiness, flourishing, and equanimity. It is believed that by embodying the four virtues and correctly applying reason that one could achieve this state. I will also be giving my own interpretation of Eudaimonia by explaining the meaning behind my design found in this video

  • No Mud, No Lotus, No Shipwreck, No Stoic - A Guided Meditation

    Hello everyone and Welcome Back to Mindfully Stoic Channel. Our channel is dedicated to increasing mindfulness through the lens of the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.


    Interest in meditation, mindfulness, and contemplation has grown exponentially in recent years. For millions around the world, mindfulness has become a life-style choice, enhancing and enriching everyday experience.


    In this meditation, I will be discussing Buddhist and stoic concepts on how to overcome adversity. The Stoics teach us that people who thrive in the face of hardship don't do so through happy thoughts. Instead, they shift their perspective to see things more objectively; focus on what they can control to make the bad situation better.


    Thanks for watching!

  • Time Our Most Valuable Possession

    Welcome to Mindfully Stoic; a channel dedicated to increasing mindfulness through the lens of the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.


    Today’s guided meditation deals with time and how it is the most valuable possession we possess. Our ability to perceive time in the future tense is both a blessing and a curse. We are a living contradiction in that we know that we will die, yet we live as if we have unlimited days. We would do well to do all in our power to live the lives we want to lead with the time given to us.

  • Indifference to the Thoughts of Others

    Welcome to Mindfully Stoic; a channel dedicated to increasing mindfulness through the lens of the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.


    Today’s guided meditation will be on indifference regarding the thoughts of others. As human beings and social creatures, we often orient our lives so we can get praise and avoid criticism of those within our social circle. The Stoics taught that we should focus on the opinion we have of ourselves instead of attempting to seek others for validation and approval.


    P.S. If it sounds like there are two different people talking during this video, it is because I was under the weather for part of the recording. Apologies if it is distracting.

  • Anger and Reason

    Welcome to Mindfully Stoic; a channel dedicated to increasing mindfulness through the lens of the ancient philosophy of Stoicism.


    For today’s guided meditation, we will be discussing the topic of anger and advice on how to deal with this emotion. Anger can cause lasting negative consequences if we are not careful and learn to manage it. Within the Stoic framework, anger usually arises due to our skewed value judgements. As stoics, we need to practice the discipline of assent, or stoic mindfulness, to evaluate if our opinions and judgments are in accordance with reason and sound logic.
