About us
Modern Stoicism is a collaboration between academics and psychotherapists, founded in 2012. We do two main things. 1. We offer free online courses based on ideas and practices drawn from the ancient philosophy of Stoicism. These include Stoic Week, which runs each October, and Stoic Mindfulness and Resilience Training (SMRT), a longer four-week course that runs at various times. 2. We conduct research into the effectiveness of ancient Stoic practices based on the data we gain from Stoic Week and SMRT. To date we have found that following Stoic life guidance consistently reduces people’s negative emotions and improves their overall life satisfaction. Each year, in conjunction with Stoic Week, we also organize an annual event, Stoicon, enabling people following Stoic Week to meet face-to-face and share their experiences. We also encourage others to organize their own local Stoicon-x events.

How did Stoicism influence REBT? In this session, guest speaker Daniel Fryer explains Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) and its connections with Stoicism. He provided an overview of REBT's origins, principles, and practical applications, explaining the ABCDE model (Adversity, Beliefs, Consequences, Disputing, and Effective rational outlook) and emphasizing the importance of challenging irrational beliefs. The Q&A session touched on various topics, including ethical implications, differences between REBT and CBT, humor in therapy, and practical integration of REBT in daily life. Additionally, the discussion explored the relevance of Stoicism in modern therapy and the integration of mindfulness practices. https://lnkd.in/eEZzKpMp
What is REBT? What Did It Borrow From Stoicism?
