Stoic Concept

Ataraxia

A state of serene calmness and untroubled peace of mind.

Ataraxia is the ultimate goal of Stoic practice - a state of profound inner tranquility that remains undisturbed by external circumstances. It's not emotional numbness but rather a deep equanimity that comes from accepting what we cannot control and focusing on what we can. This peace of mind is achieved through the consistent practice of virtue and philosophical reflection.
