Philosophy   

This class brings to life the words of renowned second-century Stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius: "Your ability to control your thoughts – treat it with respect. It's all that protects your mind from false perceptions – false to your nature, and that of all rational beings." You have power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength. Come to class and discover how we can trick ourselves into believing everything the brain says.

This class provides an introduction to how living in the now can bring you inner peace despite chaos. This class for beginners will prepare you for the next level class.

In this class you will learn the nature and characteristics of a moral or ethical dilemma, along with a technique for identifying, addressing, and solving the dilemma. New dilemmas will be provided for each class period. You will be encouraged, but not required, to bring your own suitably anonymized dilemmas to class for discussion and analysis.
