The Complete Stoic Morning Meditation
About this episode
This is a Stoic contemplation to settle into each morning before the day gets hold of you. It draws on Marcus Aurelius and his practice of premeditation of adversity, the habit of reminding yourself, on waking, that you may meet the meddling, the ungrateful and the difficult, and resolving to meet them with patience.
Practise it this way and you arrive at the day already braced for it, able to take what comes more lightly. Find somewhere quiet and let it set the tone.
