Ancient World Meditations: Stoic Wisdom with the Lyre of Apollo

By meditating with the help of the ancient lyre, we will unfold how our mind works with carefully selected inquiries based on stoic principles and the ancient technique of visualization, the ability to "form a vivid picture in our mind." It is almost like looking through a particular lens, i.e., our unconscious, imagination, and deepest desires.

"You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength." Marcus Aurelius, Plato's Emperor-Philosopher, wrote these lines in a book called "Meditations."
The essence behind them is now backed up by modern science, proving that our thoughts can increase motivation and confidence, improve our physical abilities and health and empower our brain for clarity and a state of happiness.
Let's start exploring our minds using the most important tool the ancients had, music, and an instrument that is even more ancient than the Stoics themselves, the Greek lyre.
