Stoic Week 2021 - Stoicism and Well-being
This year, Stoic Week focuses on 7 key Stoic ideas that are relevant to well-being, focusing on one theme each day:
- Control - there are some things we can control and other things we cannot control.
- Emotions - It is our interpretations that affect us, not events.
3.Character and Virtues - The Stoics emphasised 4 key virtues: wisdom, courage, self-control (or moderation), and justice.
4.Caring for Ourselves and Others - From learning how to care for ourselves properly to extending our care to all others - Seeing the Big Picture - Research supports the view that people with values that go beyond themselves are happier than those obsessed with themselves as well as the benefit of being able to change perspective.
- Stoic it up! - There are many ways in which Stoicism can help, whatever your level of commitment.
- Creating Your Stoic Toolkit - Stoicism is a framework for thinking rationally and ethically about how to lead a good life.
