In this episode, we follow Epictetus and Musonius Rufus as they dismantle the illusion that we can control anyone—or anything—outside ourselves.Through the story of a man desperate to end his brother’s anger and Musonius’s calm endurance in exile, the Stoics remind us that patience and virtue are the only sure defenses against life’s turbulence.External blows, whether personal slights or imperial banishments, cannot touch the command center within. What matters most is how we shape our own art of living, turning adversity into raw material for strength.👇 👇 👇📻 FOR MORE STOIC AUDIO CONTENTCheck out one of my latest daily Micro Morning Meditations here on Substack:☀️ Micro Morning Meditation: The Stoic Sense Of Humour<a href="https://whatisstoicism.substack.com/p/micro-morning-meditation-the-stoic-97d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://whatisstoicism.substack.com/p/micro-morning-meditation-the-stoic-97d</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
