Summary

• Stoicism is based on ideas that help people to live their best possible lives.

• It’s a philosophy that promotes positive emotions and helping individuals embrace the virtues of their character.

• It does this by highlighting the importance of simplicity so that people can find peace and harmony within themselves and the world around them and focus on what truly matters rather than getting caught up in negative emotions and behaviours.

• The Introduction to Stoicism Diploma Course begins by going back to the foundation of Stoicism.

• You’ll first be introduced to Zeno of Citium, the philosophy’s founder, before reviewing the history of Stoicism and some of the philosophy’s key subscribers, including Cleanthes, Cato the Younger, Seneca and Epictetus.
