Stoic Journaling for Personal Growth
Ever feel like your days blur together without real insight or improvement? The Stoic Evening Review is a simple yet profound practice that can change how you understand yourself and navigate life’s challenges.
Drawing inspiration from Seneca, this practice is a practical application of philosophical Stoicism and honest self-reflection. It’s a straightforward method to pause at the end of each day and ask yourself the kind of questions that enable progress in your journey towards a good life.
At this Conversations event, we’ll break down the Stoic Evening Review into practical, actionable steps. You’ll learn how to:
- Examine your daily actions without harsh judgment
- Uncover the thought patterns that drive your reactions
- Identify areas where you can improve, both personally and professionally
- Transform daily experiences into meaningful learning opportunities
This isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress. By spending just a few minutes each evening, you can develop greater self-awareness, build emotional resilience, and gradually align your actions with your values and virtue.
Like all Conversations with Modern Stoicism events, this session includes both teaching and interactive small-group discussions, giving you a chance to immediately apply the technique to your own recent experiences. You’ll walk away with a concrete tool that turns reflection into a powerful catalyst for personal growth.
