This audiobook is a brilliant compilation of Stoic philosophy, bringing together the timeless works of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus. The teachings are as relevant today as they were centuries ago, offering practical guidance on how to remain calm, focused, and resilient in the face of life’s challenges. The narration is engaging and clear, making the content easy to absorb, even for those new to Stoicism. I particularly appreciated the added workbook exercises, which helped me apply these philosophies to my own life. Highly recommend for anyone looking for inspiration and personal growth!

Ancient Wisdom that still apply to living our Best

The Definitive Stoicism Collection combines three audiobooks into one. Stoic philosophy flourished in ancient Greece and Rome for many years and still applies today. This audiobook collection equips us with the knowledge to manage our anger, minds, marriages, children, and environment and comprehend our methods, actions, and principles of living a moral and purposeful life. From beginning to end, this audiobook is filled with things I would embed in my mind and heart. Marcus Aurelius' meditation was beautiful, and we received a PDF workbook for further assistance. The letters were so numerous yet encouraging that I found it easy to listen to them. Epictetus depicted taking control and remaining uninfluenced by external chance or change in his well-stated statements of Stoic philosophy (Enchiridion and Discourses). I loved every minute of the audio despite how long it was. It kept me interested and made me glad that I chose it. I recommend this audio to others interested in applying outstanding wisdom to their lives.

Centuries of knowledge in one book

Yes this book is a beast but it’s packed with ages and ages of timeless wisdom. The thing is you don’t even have to listen to all of it in one go. You can listen to bits here and there and pick up on the wisdom as you go. I particularly liked Senecas on the shortness of life. I feel like this really changed my perspective on how I view my leisure time.

So Much Wisdom!

This collection is a deep study of Stoicism, it's packed with life-changing insights. It’s long, but you don’t need to tackle it all at once. I found myself coming back to certain sections for practical advice on handling everyday struggles. Seneca’s work on time and leisure really shifted my perspective. Definitely worth listening to if you want timeless advice on resilience and personal growth!

What an Incredible Collection!

This audiobook represents a whole library of works. At over 52 hours long, it’s incredibly thorough, covering all the big names of Stoicism—Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus.

Thankfully, it’s also well-organized and the narration is easy to listen to and engaging. I also thought the workbook is a nice touch and is a great help for anyone who wants to dive deeper and apply Stoic principles to their everyday life.

What I loved most about this collection is how relevant these works are to our present situation. And I think it’s possible to pick it up whenever you need a little boost of wisdom without feeling like you have to power through the whole thing at once.

This is a fantastic resource. If you're ready for some personal growth and a fresh perspective on life, I think this audiobook will definitely be of great help.
