The Philosophy of Stoicism: Ancient Wisdom for a Happy Today with Tim LeBon

Stoicism is an ancient philosophy dating back to the third century BC. It was practised and shaped by some of history’s greatest thinkers, including Marcus Aurelius, Seneca and Epictetus. It provides a powerful remedy for stress and anxiety by promoting behaviours that build inner strength and contentment. In this practical and engaging talk, Tim LeBon will introduce you to the core principles of Stoicism:

• Control what you can: Focus on what you can influence and let go of what you can’t 
• Live with virtue: Act with integrity, wisdom, justice, courage and moderation
• Achieve true happiness: Be your best self, regardless of external circumstances

By embracing these Stoic principles, you’ll develop a mindset of peace and resilience in the face of adversity. Join us to discover how Stoicism can help you lead a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Doors open at 7:00pm, talk starts at 7.30pm
