It's 11 PM, the screen is off, and your mind is still racing with unfinished tasks and worries. What if this moment, between the last distraction and sleep, is not wasted time but the most important part of your day?
In this episode, discover the Stoic practice of evening reflection, a powerful tool for honest self-inspection. Learn how examining your day, as Epictetus taught, reveals the true views that drive your actions and how Marcus Aurelius used gratitude as a discipline to anchor his mind.
