<p>In this series, you&rsquo;ll get an introduction to the practice of Stoicism, an ancient philosophical tradition rooted in the identification and attenuation of negative emotions. Stoicism&rsquo;s insights into the human mind&mdash;originating from philosophers like Seneca and Marcus Aurelius&mdash;are very much in line with those of Buddhism. Both schools of thought share the premise that happiness can't just be a matter of simply getting what one wants.</p>
<p>Join William B. Irvine through this engaging series of short talks and meditations that provide an overview of Stoicism and thoughts on how to apply it in modern life.</p>
