Tame: Mind Over Matter

Welcome to Episode 12 of Tame, the podcast where we discuss quotes from Marcus Aurelius' 'Meditations' and how we can apply the lessons and logic from the book to our own lives to be stronger, kinder and better people.Today we're discussing the following three quotes:“It’s silly to try to escape other people’s faults. They are inescapable. Just try to escape your own.”Book 7, Chapter 71"When jarred, unavoidably, by circumstances, revert at once to yourself, and don’t lose the rhythm more than you can help. You’ll have a better grasp of the harmony if you keep on going back to it."Book 6, Chapter 11"Alexander and Caesar and Pompey. Compared with Diogenes, Heraclitus, Socrates? The philosophers knew the what, the why, the how. Their minds were their own. The others? Nothing but anxiety and enslavement."Book 8, Chapter 3We hope you enjoy our podcast and encourage you to join the conversation by leaving comments, getting in touch on social media and sharing this with people you think would benefit from hearing it
