His aim was to make philosophy — long seen as the inaccessible, inauthentic stuff of academies and archives — a functional aspect of modern life. The care with which ancient philosophers thought about their lives remains a valuable antidote to the generalised anxiety of our era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe school thus posits that ideas of Plato, Aristotle and the Stoics are as relevant to us today as they were in ancient Greece. Even if Epicurus never had social media burnout, understanding his thinking can lead us to a healthier relationship with , for example, our phones — and by extension, with one another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe began stocking The School of Life’s series on work, gratitude and pleasure as a way of thinking through modern day issues. We admire their series for the capacity to stimulate reflection, and their ability to give a new perspective on age old problems. At its core, it is a set of strategies for finding meaning in the modern world — so that we can appreciate small pleasures and the things that might go unnoticed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The School of Life","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42137887768806,"sku":"10062","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/3104\/5683\/products\/The-School-of-Life-Writing-As-Therapy-Ideas-Notebook-Dot-Grid.jpg?v=1664198158","url":"https:\/\/misc-store.mom\/products\/the-school-of-life-writing-as-therapy-journal-ideas","provider":"Misc Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
