Stoicon-X Melbourne is an event for people interested in Stoicism as a philosophical approach to life, including practical exercises for managing challenges like stress, fatigue, difficult people, resilience in the face of adversity, and negative emotions.
It is also an event for those already involved in Stoicism who want to delve deeper, as well as meet like-minded people in the growing global Stoic community.
Stoicon-X Melbourne is part of global Stoic Week, organised by the Modern Stoicism movement (UK-based non-profit)

About Stoic Week
Stoic Week is an annual event that invites everyone to ‘live like a Stoic for a week’.
Started in the UK, since 2012 over 20,000 people have signed up to give Stocism a try. Participants complete a questionnaire before starting and another at the end that enables organisers to assess how much following Stoic life guidance has benefitted participants.
To date the results have consistently shown that people who give Stoicism a try see a reduction in negative emotions and an increase in life satisfaction.
Melbourne’s event will introduce interested Victorians to Stoicism and help them understand how to live like a Stoic, why it is becoming increasingly popular as a way to live and how to apply Stoic principles to the world today.
