Stoic Resilience: Embracing Inner Strength
A program designed to cultivate emotional resilience and self-mastery through Stoic principles, helping you navigate challenging relationships and reclaim inner peace.
Program Modules
Understanding What You Can Control 🧘
An introduction to the Stoic 'dichotomy of control' and how to differentiate between what you can and cannot influence. Focus on internal virtues.
Daily Reflection
Daily 7xReflect on situations where you tried to control external factors. How could you have shifted your focus to your internal state?
“The chief task in life is simply this: to identify and separate matters so that I can say clearly to myself which are externals not under my control, and which have to do with the choices I actually control. Where then do I look for good and evil? Not to externals, but within myself to the choices that are my own.”
Practicing Emotional Regulation 🧠
Learning techniques to manage and regulate your emotional responses to external stimuli. Focus on acceptance and perspective.
Mindful Breathing Exercise
Daily 7xEngage in a 5-minute mindful breathing exercise to calm your nervous system and practice emotional regulation.
“Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good and evil.”
Cultivating Indifference to External Opinions 🛡️
Developing resilience against the opinions and actions of others. Understanding that their actions reflect them, not you.
Challenge Negative Thoughts
Daily 7xIdentify and challenge negative thoughts stemming from external criticism or perceived slights.
“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”
