|Jun 2025
"Stay Positive with Marcus Aurelius: 79 Questions and Answers from Stoic Philosophy" by Charan Díaz and Jana Capri is a refreshingly accessible guide that brings the ancient wisdom of Stoicism into everyday modern life.
Drawing on Marcus Aurelius’ ‘Meditations’, the authors reimagine his insights in response to 79 relatable questions on topics such as happiness, relationships, purpose, and emotional balance. Each answer, offered in the imagined voice of Aurelius, is followed by a psychological reflection grounded in contemporary therapeutic principles. This dual approach bridges the gap between philosophy and practice, making the book a valuable tool for those seeking calm, clarity, and ethical guidance in a chaotic world.
“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” — Marcus Aurelius
