Really glad I was given this to try. I'd heard of Stoicism before but I'd never given it the time of day. Well, now I see what I've been missing out on. This was a fantastic introduction to the subject, packed with great wisdom and tactics to help me deal with the trials and tribulations of life. Well narrated and easy to absorb. Five stars 👍

Great toolkit for managing stress and conflict

I enjoyed reading all the different coping techniques that you can use to form your toolkit so when things get tough you can pull them out and use the right technique. I learnt new things and my son enjoyed hearing it too whilst we were in the car. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to handle stress effectively

Practical Wisdom

The timing of this book is just perfect for me. Work has been quite stressful, and I feel like I’m constantly bombarded by news and other stressors. This guide gave me the tools to instill a sense of calm in my life. The way Stoicism is explained makes it feel very accessible, even if you're someone who hasn't historically been into philosophy (like me!). What I particularly love about this book is its relatability; the advice feels truly practical. It’s a philosophy that can be applied to life in a way that seems to generate results. This is a great place to start if you're looking for a way to carve out some real peace.
