As someone interested in Stoicism and applying its principles, especially in the face of external challenges, I was looking for a more practical and accessible way to incorporate Stoic wisdom into my daily life. This book is the perfect fit, with daily meditations that make ancient philosophy relevant today.Pros:• Provides a daily quote from a famous Stoic (Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius)• Practical and easy-to-understand interpretations of ancient wisdom• Great for those looking to apply Stoic principles to everyday life• Can be read daily and reread throughout the year for new insights• Ideal for anyone seeking personal growth and mindfulnessCons:• Occasionally feels American-centric in its interpretation

The ultimate loo read...
...and when I say loo read, I don't mean the American singer. This is truly the perfect book to be kept in your bathroom, ready for your daily routine whenever you go. Short chunks of text, not overly profound to elicit much thinking that would keep you sat long beyond the time necessary to fulfil an essential bodily function. If you're on a 'bis in die' routine, you can always re-read the last day's entry. Happy with the purchase. There are way better books on Stoicism, but this one definitely found its niche in our household.

My daily read for a joyful start to the day
I first bought The Daily Stoic seven years ago and use it every day. It's made a real difference to my way of living and a joyful, peaceful start to every day. I recently bought the gorgeous leather-bound edition (soft cream quality paper, soft black leather cover & gold-tooled titles, gold edges - a joy to handle); this is my treasured bible. [I don't know why it's £300 on Amazon - The Painted Porch sells at £114 including UK shipping]. Really recommend to anyone new to Stoicism and seeking a focus to begin their journey towards a healthier way of being.
