What we’re about

This is a meeting place and discussion group for folk living in Stockholm who are interested in trying to live a good life using modern Stoic philosophy. We will focus one aspect of Stoic thought and practice each meetup, and discuss it together. 

ABOUT STOICISM

The Stoics used various practical techniques for vastly reducing negative emotions, many of which have been adopted into Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. However, they also believed in cultivating good character in the form of four virtues: wisdom, courage, justice and restraint.

GETTING STARTED

For an introduction to Stoicism, I recommend "A Guide to the Good Life" by William Irvine (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5617966-a-guide-to-the-good-life) or "How to think like a Roman Emperor" by Donald Robertson (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39863499-how-to-think-like-a-roman-emperor).

ALL ARE WELCOME

Anyone interested in discussing Stoicism is welcome, even better if you've already done some reading about it and have tried to apply it in some small way to your own life.

You are welcome to join Facebook group Stoicholm as well. https://m.facebook.com/groups/2472645996110584?view=info
