About musical stoicism 2.0

joaozarco123@gmail.com The Stoicism in Music channel broadcasts Stoic music, based on developing the ability to cope with life's circumstances. Music shapes human behavior. It is, therefore, a powerful tool for integrating Stoic habits and distinguishing what we control, such as thoughts and actions, from what we don't, such as the behavior of others and external events. Stoic music challenges the mind to be present in the here and now, with clear messages on how to guide our interpretations of the world. Welcome to Stoicism in Music. Here, each episode is an invitation to serenity. We combine the teachings of Stoic sages—such as Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius—with soundscapes that awaken reflection, inner strength, and balance. Prepare to immerse yourself in timeless thoughts, guided by music that calms the mind and awakens the spirit. Take a deep breath. The journey begins.

   009 When I wake up in the morning,

   When I wake up in the morning, I say in a smiling tone, I will find bad people, with the present calm. I will deal with the irritated, Without losing my joy, I will listen to the unloved, Without falling into agony. The soul is dyed, with the color of thought, Life is disgusting, trapped in resentment, We suffer more in our imagination, than in reality, and it is bad for the heart, to fall into this childishness.

    007 Anguish

    Anguish arises from the judgment We make of the things around us It's not the facts, but the meaning We give them, with such rigor Our uncontrolled mind Is the origin of all affliction We create monsters out of nothing And we get lost in confusion Reality is neutral and serene It doesn't cause anguish or pain It's the thoughts that condemn And imprison us in an inner prison Let go of erroneous judgments Be present in the here and now It's the key to calming anxieties And finding the peace that is so often explored

    003 Tame bad ideas

    Tame the ideas that consume me And the bad thoughts that corrode me They cause damage to my mind But I will change them radically I send away negative emotions From my depths will emerge A great well-being in this now United with a beautiful feeling I will live in the present This is my chance To grow and fly with freedom I will identify words and actions That triggered bad emotions In the mirror, my new reflection A smile that is pure affection I walk firmly without wavering I will embrace positivity Each step is a universe Where I wish to be immersed The future is a blank page I will fill it without fear or tears Live in the present My opportunity To grow and fly with freedom Identify words, actions That triggered these emotions

    001 The Duality of Control

    Life is divided into an endless game What I control is here within me Thoughts fly like birds in the air Actions I take make me dream But the world outside slips out of my hand Hearts change like the seasons What others do I cannot predict Let anxiety flow in the wind I choose what I can hold What we control is our home And the rest I let the river carry I will sail with the current It's a dance between chaos and desire Each step is a chance to learn I will float on the tides of destiny Accepting what I cannot change I do not suffer from the winds that will come I find peace in my decision The Universe It goes as it should go And here inside I know where to go I choose what I can hold What we control is our home And the rest I let the river carry I will sail with the current
