Keeping New Year Resolutions

Join the "Helsingin stoalaiset" group for an enlightening evening delving into the principles of Stoicism and its applications in modern society. This meetup will be an open forum for discussing how Stoic philosophy can help us navigate life's challenges and cultivate inner resilience. Whether you're a seasoned Stoic practitioner or a newcomer interested in exploring philosophical concepts, this event welcomes all individuals seeking personal growth and self-improvement.

Let's come together to learn from one another, support each other on our journeys, and foster a community centered around lifelong learning and self-discovery. Don't miss this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and deepen your understanding of Stoic philosophy in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

This time we will explore how to keep New Year’s resolutions through the lens of Stoic philosophy.

New Year’s resolutions are easy to make but hard to keep. What if the wisdom of ancient Stoic philosophers like Marcus Aurelius and Seneca could guide us toward lasting change? In this session, we’ll delve into Stoic principles such as discipline, self-control, and acceptance, and discuss practical techniques to stay committed to our goals while maintaining peace of mind.

What to expect:

• Thoughtful insights from Stoic texts and ideas.
• Interactive discussions on applying Stoic tools like journaling, reframing challenges, and maintaining focus.
• Actionable strategies for making resolutions that align with your values and staying on track when motivation wanes.

Whether you’re a seasoned Stoic or new to the philosophy, this event is for anyone looking for timeless wisdom to strengthen their resolve and create meaningful habits for 2025.

Note: The discussion will be held in English unless all participants prefer Finnish.

Let’s start the year grounded in purpose and resilience. See you there!
