ONLINE: Handbook for New Stoics (Exercise 39)

This is the Friday night meeting for Orlando Stoics. We are meeting ONLINE.

This week, we will discuss exercise 39 in "A Handbook for New Stoics" by Massimo Pigliucci and Gregory Lopez. This chapter is called “Keep basic Stoic concepts always at hand”. To smooth out our lives, we need to realize that we’re imperfect, therefore keep practicing and keep basic concepts at hand. Joe Bullock will host this meeting. We hope you can attend!

If you have a friend who might be interested, please invite them. We have plenty of room in the Zoom meeting.

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.
