Can't make it to STOICON 2016 in New York? I'll be delivering the exact same workshop I'm leading on Stoicism and Anger here in my home town of Milwaukee - for FREE. No previous knowledge of philosophy or Stoicism is needed - and all of us know something about anger!



Anger remains just as problematic an emotion for us today as it was for those living in ancient times. Stoic philosophers provide us with a number of perspectives and techniques we can use to understand and address anger. This workshop will lead participants through examining, discussing, and applying insights drawn from Stoicism to deal with this troublesome emotion. We will focus in particular on anger experienced by oneself, exhibited by others, and arising in our wider culture.



We've reserved Central Community Room 1 for this workshop. As part of our outreach to the city we live in and love, and to celebrate Stoic Week, we're making this event entirely FREE for the interested public.

FAQs

Do I need to know anything about Stoicism or philosophy to go to this event?

No, you do not! We'll go over some basic concepts from Stoic philosophy, and you'll see how they apply to dealing with issues of anger.





What is all this about Stoicon and Stoic Week?

There is a growing movement worldwide of people who are interested in Stoic philosophy, and who use it to improve their own lives, relationships, and careers. Stoicon and Stoic Week are both initiatives that come out of the Stoicism Today project. Stoicon is an annual conference featuring major researchers, psychotherapists, coaches and authors (held this year in New York City), and Stoic Week is an entire week devoted to events and classes on Stoic philosophy worldwide.
