The Stoic Handbook with Jon Brooks
You've read the books. You know what Marcus Aurelius would do. But when life gets hard, the philosophy disappears. This podcast is for people who want to close the gap between knowing Stoicism and actually living it. New episodes every Monday.

Meditation: Stoic Ideas to Calm the Mind for Action
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
A short guided meditation for the moment before you act, when nerves or overthinking are pulling you off course. We use a few Stoic ideas to settle the mind: what is actually in your hands, what is not, and how to step into the next thing with a steady rather than scattered head.
This is not about emptying your mind, it is about calming it enough to move well. Use it before a hard conversation, a piece of work you have been avoiding, or anything that has you spinning before you have even started.
