Outstanding

Listening to this, Audible made me really appreciate the author‘s way of describing the concept of stoicism. The audiobook is very thorough and cover some of the more basic or beginner concepts of stoicism and then moves onto the more advanced concepts. Initially I was nervous I wouldn’t be able to understand the more advanced concepts, but the author does such an incredible job of explaining it. I highly recommend this

Control what you can control

Great audio with lots of practical advice from the ancient stoics, particularly Marcus Aurelius, the Roman Emperor - its crazy to think that ancient stoicism is so helpful to modern mindfulness today even though they lived over 1000 years ago without the internet! Motivating, mindful and it keeps my mental health in check by listening to the wisdom given by the ancient stoics in overcoming their struggles through life. A must listen for anyone struggling with life who wants to be motivated to a new way of living and keeping control of what they can control in their lives - their attitude to any given situation.

Peace in this fast-paced world

The dual approach of providing foundational Stoic principles alongside advanced techniques is great. Whether you’re just beginning to explore Stoicism or have been practicing for years, there’s so much value here. The inclusion of modern psychology adds another layer of depth, showing how these ancient teachings align with contemporary tools for self-discipline and personal growth.

The book also emphasizes balance and practicality. It’s not about being emotionless or overly rigid but about cultivating the mindset to stay grounded and focused no matter what life throws at you. I found the guidance on achieving inner peace and clarity especially relevant in today’s fast-paced, stressful world.

great add to my stoic knowledge!

Having thoroughly enjoyed Cole's "The Philosophy of Stoicism", I was really excited to dive into this audiobook. This audiobook did not disappoint! Cole delves deeper into Stoic practices, offering advanced techniques that are both practical and transformative. The first half introduced new insights that built beautifully on what I had already learned. Although the second half just repeats content from his previous audiobook, it serves as a helpful recap. Overall, this is a fantastic addition to any Stoic's library, especially for those looking to deepen their practice :)

Stoicism That Makes Sense

I’ve read a few books on Stoicism, but this one finally made things click for me. It breaks down the philosophy in a way that feels practical, not just theoretical. I’ve been using some of the techniques for a couple of weeks now, and I’m already noticing changes in how I react to challenges. It’s a great mix of beginner-friendly explanations and deeper insights for when you’re ready to dig in more. Highly recommend for anyone exploring Stoicism!
