Today we're diving into letter #69 of Seneca's letters to Lucilius, which begins:"I do not like you to change your headquarters and scurry about from one place to another. My reasons are, – first, that such frequent flitting means an unsteady spirit. And the spirit cannot through retirement grow into unity unless it has ceased from its inquisitiveness and its wanderings. To be able to hold your spirit in check, you must first stop the runaway flight of the body."You can find the full text of letter #69 here: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Moral_letters_to_Lucilius/Letter_69--Get rid of ads and support our work : https://link.stoicismpod.com/membersHang out with us in our free listener community: https://link.stoicismpod.com/discordJoin our daily Stoic journaling program : https://link.stoicismpod.com/journalingJoin our Stoic mentoring community : https://link.stoicismpod.com/path --View a list of our sponsors : https://link.stoicismpod.com/sponsors--Visit our website : https://stoicismpod.comCheck out our reading list : https://stoicismpod.com/suggested-readingRead our articles : https://stoicismpod.com/category/articles--Online copy of Meditations (Long) : https://link.stoicismpod.com/meditations-longOnline copy of Meditations (Casaubon) : https://link.stoicismpod.com/meditations-casaubonOnline copy of Seneca's Letters : https://link.stoicismpod.com/letters-- Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we introduce Seneca, perhaps the second best known Stoic writer, and certainly the one with the largest body of surviving work in the Stoic tradition. We’ve spent a year with Marcus, and we’ll continue to share him on Mondays, but you’ve been doing this long enough, you’ve learned enough, to expand your knowledge and familiarity of authors beyond just Marcus. --Get rid of ads and support our work : https://link.stoicismpod.com/membersHang out with us in our free listener community: https://link.stoicismpod.com/discordJoin our daily Stoic journaling program : https://link.stoicismpod.com/journalingJoin our Stoic mentoring community : https://link.stoicismpod.com/path --View a list of our sponsors : https://link.stoicismpod.com/sponsors--Visit our website : https://stoicismpod.comCheck out our reading list : https://stoicismpod.com/suggested-readingRead our articles : https://stoicismpod.com/category/articles--Online copy of Meditations (Long) : https://link.stoicismpod.com/meditations-longOnline copy of Meditations (Casaubon) : https://link.stoicismpod.com/meditations-casaubonOnline copy of Seneca's Letters : https://link.stoicismpod.com/letters-- Learn more about your ad choices.
