Why study Stoicism?
Stoicism is one of a family of philosophies primarily concerned with finding the best way to live ones life, in figuring out how to flourish as human beings. Stoicism is one of several such philosophies developed in the Hellenistic period of Mediterranean history. Stoicism’s rivals included Epicureanism, Scepticism, Peripateticism, and Cynicism, each of which was similar to Stoicism in some ways, and different in others.

Stoicism is a philosophy of life, a practical guide to applying wisdom to your daily choices, focused on living life as a thriving rational being, characterized by excellence in judgement and the fulfilled happiness that is to the mind what robust healthy fitness is to the body. Stoics believe that, just as physical pain is caused by illness and injury to the body, human distress is caused (at least in part, and according to orthodox Stoicism, entirely) by mistaken judgments and incorrect beliefs, particularly about good and bad. To completely correct these judgements and correct these beliefs is a difficult task, perhaps effectively impossible, but Stoic study, practice, and exercises aim at least to improve those of the Stoics who practice them.
