Lives of the Wise

From the Studio · YouTube

The wise ones showed us how to live — steady, calm, and strong. Reggae on the lives of the Stoics. “Lives of the Wise” by Roots in Wisdom is conscious reggae from the Iron Spirit album, inspired by Lives of the Stoics by Ryan Holiday & Stephen Hanselman (2020). A grounded, timeless riddim: learn from the greats who lived their philosophy, not just spoke it. THE BOOK & THE MESSAGE Lives of the Stoics by Ryan Holiday and Stephen Hanselman (2020) tells the stories of the great Stoic philosophers — from Zeno to Marcus Aurelius — showing that Stoicism is a way of living, learned best through the people who lived it. The song honors the wise — live the philosophy, don’t just quote it. LIVE IT DAILY — how to use this takeaway every day - Pick one Stoic virtue to practice: courage, discipline, justice, or wisdom. - Act on your principles instead of just stating them. - Ask, ‘what would the wise do here?’ - Study a life you truly admire.
