I loved reading this and it really resonated with me. I'm trying to find that place where my outside world doesn't have control of my inside world and I'm struggling. I will read this multiple times for it to really sink in and hopefully I might find my answers. ❤️

Thank you, Andrea. Finding that inner peace takes time, but you’re on the right path. Small steps every day make a big difference. Glad this resonated with you!

A lot of the primary concept I write about, intentional stress, is derived from Stoic philosophy, particularly Marcus Aurelius. We don’t control much in this world but we do control our stress response which can be trained through intentional stress. Beautiful post!

It is to appreciate this life, this world.

To understand who we are, to be trusting and confident, to be authentic. This has value.

Cherish what is around and to protect this.

Isn't it amazing how so much value is still found in the teachings of "ancient Roman dudes"?

Who knew their wisdom would be used to tackle the problems of today.

Just goes to show that the good stuff really is timeless.
