393. The psychology of stoicism

If you heard someone described as stoic, you would probably imagine they were unemotional and repressed, with a stiff upper lip. But stoicism has a PR problem. In fact, stoicism can teach us a lot about letting go of outcomes, being more tolerant of others, and how to live a more fulfilled life. In this episode, we unpack the core pillars of this ancient philosophy, recognise how it has influenced world leaders to chronic pain patients, and explore how we can apply it in our day-to-day lives.   We explore: • The ancient origins of stoicism  • Why people are turning to stoicism today • The four cardinal virtues of stoicism - wisdom, justice, courage and temperance • Why stoic mindsets scientifically impact the treatment of pain, palliative care, and more • How stoicism can be one of the most empowering mindsets to adopt in our 20s Listen now or watch on Netflix!
