A Stoic Morning to See Things Clearly
Most of what upsets us is not the event but the story we wrap around it. This short morning meditation, about seven and a half minutes, walks you through the Stoic practice of objective representation: looking at a recent experience and gently pulling the plain facts apart from the feelings stacked on top.
You will pick one situation, see it as it actually is, and reframe your response from there. Inspired by Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus, it is a way to start the day grounded in reason rather than reaction.
