Reasons Not to Worry
Like many people today, Brigid Delaney was searching for clues about life’s most timeless questions: How can we be good? Find inner peace? Properly grieve? Tame our insecurities? Chief among them all: How do we determine what truly matters? Centuries ago, the Stoics pondered much of the same. At an important inflection point in her own life, Brigid decided to let these ancient philosophers be her guide. Brigid is rash where the Stoics are logical; she runs on chaos, while the Stoics know what is beyond their reach. Over the course of a year, Brigid dedicated herself to following the words and advice of Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius. In doing so, she hoped to discover how best to live. In this book, Brigid shares what she learned, showing us how we, too, can draw on the Stoics to regain a sense of agency and tranquility and find meaning in our lives.
