NOTE: Join me live at 11AM this Sunday at the Philadelphia Ethical Society or on Zoom at this link to hear more reflections about Stoicism and peace. Those living in or near
Philadelphia can also learn more about Stoicism by checking out Philadelphia Stoa, a lively
philosophical group meeting at the Ethical Society. Their website is
https://philadelphiastoa.org/. And wherever you are, I recommend
A Handbook for New Stoics written by Massimo Pigliucci and Gregory Lopez. May your week be
full of serenity!

In honor of the United Nations International Day of Peace, Hugh Taft-Morales explores how the philosophy of Stoicism can help us build peace from the inside out. It can help us nurture peace within by contemplating the "big picture" and by understanding what we can control and what we cannot. Stoicism can help us manage the relationships between our thoughts, emotions, and behavior. This can lead to greater equanimity and more effective peacebuilding in the world.
