#35 - Meditations Book 2: 4 Ways a Soul Does Violence To Itself & Marcus’s Remedies, Interdependence, Justin’s Kia Catching on Fire, Roommates Who Bathe In Vegetables, & The Benjamin Franklin Effect

Send us a text This week we dive into Book 2 of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, we begin with Justin’s current sparing partner for equanimity, namely his Kia catching on fire. Then we move into the acronym: M.O.M.A which breaks down the four main ways that Marcus discusses that the soul can do violence to itself. But, because we don’t dwell on the negative, we then move into B.E.T.R. Which is the remedy to soul violence. All of that work helps prepare us to live in cooperation with others and we discuss the beauty of Interdependence. For the Stoic Reimagining we introduce you to the quirky yet powerful “Benjamin Franklin Effect.”
