What we’re about
This meetup aims to gather people from all walks of life, who are interested in the study and practice of Stoicism as a philosophy of life.
Stoicism has been one of the most influential philosophies throughout history since Greek and Roman times. It is simple, highly practical and remains relevant in our modern day. In fact, Stoicism is growing again in popularity. It promises, as it always has, a “good flow of life” -- tranquility through living a virtuous life based on wisdom, courage, self-control and justice.
If living a flourishing life appeals to you, then you are more than welcome to join us. This is a place of learning and encouragement. Our discussions will be open and simple. We're not expected to agree on everything, and together we’ll learn different perspectives on how to become the best versions of ourselves.
“Associate with people who are likely to improve you. Welcome those who you are capable of improving. The process is a mutual one: men learn as they teach" - Seneca
