Back to Episodes#52 - Meditations Book 9: How to Deepen Your Rest & Sharpen Your Focus Like a Stoic, Marcus's Bedtime Stories & Is There Life After TikTok?
Description
This episode took us a year to make... Well, at least it is the byproduct of a year focused on focus and rest for Bruce. If you read between the lines of Meditations Book 9 you'll find an emperor who also shares an obsession with finding ways to increase his focus and find rest.
For instance Marcus says things like:
"You can remove out of the way many useless things among those which disturb thee, for they lie entirely in thy opinion"
Or
"Let there be freedom from perturbation with things which come from the external cause and let there be justice done by virtue of the internal cause that is, let there be movement and action terminating in this, in social acts."
In this episode we explore practical ways we can sharpen our focus and deepen our rest.
