The What Is Stoicism? Podcast - Should You Suppress Your Desires?

Should You Suppress Your Desires?

The What Is Stoicism? Podcast

play

02/12/25 • 5 min

The most common misunderstanding about Stoicism is that it’s all about suppressing or burying our emotions.


This tends to come from the confusion between Stoicism (upper case ‘S’) and stoicism (lower case ‘s’); the former is the ancient Greek philosophy that we learn about and practice, the latter is simply a “stiff-upper-lip” coping style.


In this episode, we look at why it's better to understand and process our emotions rather than dismiss and suppress them.

In the relentless pursuit of happiness, a common impulse leads us to believe that a change in surroundings will lift the burdens of our minds.


Seneca, the ancient Stoic philosopher, challenges this instinct in his 28th Letter to Lucilius, inviting us to question whether our travels truly offer escape or merely a temporary reprieve.
