The Practicing Stoic - Chapter 9 (continued)

This is the Friday night meeting for Orlando Stoics. It's online.

Chapter 9 of Ward Farnsworth’s book “The Practicing Stoic” covers emotion. How does a Stoic view emotion? How does fear lead to emotion? And what are the solutions for fear? This chapter will be discussed in 2 parts. Part 1 (5-13) & Part 2 (5-20).

Each Friday meeting will start with a dialogue (recorded) and then proceed to discussion (not recorded).

In general, Stoicism teaches us how to handle difficult people and events, how to avoid anger and worry, and overall to use moderation in all aspects of our lives. We will discuss how Stoic practice can lead to a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Our group enjoys open-minded, respectful conversations on Stoicism and how it relates to science, culture, philosophy, other belief systems, and pop culture (books and movies). If we differ in our opinions, then "we agree to disagree". The long-term goal is to improve our minds via group discussions. Our group does NOT discuss religion or politics.

This event is free and open to the public.
