Incredible Journey

I just finished The Definitive Stoicism Collection, and wow, what an incredible journey! At over 52 hours, this audiobook may seem like a huge commitment, but it's totally worth every minute. The collection includes everything you could possibly want when it comes to Stoicism: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, Letters from a Stoic by Seneca, and the works of Epictetus, plus so much more. If you’re looking to dive deep into Stoic philosophy, this is the ultimate resource.

What I really loved about this audiobook is that it’s not just a bunch of ancient texts—it feels like a powerful guide for living in today’s world. The wisdom shared is timeless, yet it’s presented in a way that feels incredibly relevant and practical. The narration is smooth and engaging, which makes it easy to stay focused, even during the more philosophical parts. The PDF workbook that comes with it is a great bonus, too, as it helps you apply these principles to your daily life.

Whether you're new to Stoicism or have been studying it for a while, this collection will give you so much to think about and implement in your life. It's been a transformative experience for me, offering tools to tackle challenges, reduce stress, and find peace in chaos. If you're ready for some personal growth and to strengthen your emotional resilience, I can't recommend this audiobook enough!

I'm so enlightened

I thought my brain would be fried when I finished a 50+ hour audiobook, but quite the opposite! Getting a glimpse into the personal journal of Marcus Aurelius and seeing his viewpoint of what it means to live a virtuous and meaningful life was seriously enlightening. My favorite was the letters by Seneca - it addresses topics like anger, grief, and the pursuit of happiness. I loved the conversational style they were written in. The Enchiridion by Epictetus was great, too, and gave me serenity prayer vibes. This is definitely worth a listen!

Centuries of knowledge in one book

Yes this book is a beast but it’s packed with ages and ages of timeless wisdom. The thing is you don’t even have to listen to all of it in one go. You can listen to bits here and there and pick up on the wisdom as you go. I particularly liked Senecas on the shortness of life. I feel like this really changed my perspective on how I view my leisure time.

So Much Wisdom!

This collection is a deep study of Stoicism, it's packed with life-changing insights. It’s long, but you don’t need to tackle it all at once. I found myself coming back to certain sections for practical advice on handling everyday struggles. Seneca’s work on time and leisure really shifted my perspective. Definitely worth listening to if you want timeless advice on resilience and personal growth!

What an Incredible Collection!

This audiobook represents a whole library of works. At over 52 hours long, it’s incredibly thorough, covering all the big names of Stoicism—Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus.

Thankfully, it’s also well-organized and the narration is easy to listen to and engaging. I also thought the workbook is a nice touch and is a great help for anyone who wants to dive deeper and apply Stoic principles to their everyday life.

What I loved most about this collection is how relevant these works are to our present situation. And I think it’s possible to pick it up whenever you need a little boost of wisdom without feeling like you have to power through the whole thing at once.

This is a fantastic resource. If you're ready for some personal growth and a fresh perspective on life, I think this audiobook will definitely be of great help.
