    Marcus Aurelius

    Marcus Aurelius (121-180 CE) was a Roman emperor and Stoic philosopher renowned for his wisdom, integrity, and dedication to virtue. As one of the last "Five Good Emperors," he governed during a time of political and military challenges, demonstrating remarkable leadership and resilience. His private writings, later compiled as Meditations, reveal a deeply reflective mind striving to live ethically and thoughtfully. Revered as one of history's great thinkers, Aurelius' philosophy emphasizes self-discipline, mindfulness, and living in harmony with nature, offering timeless guidance for those seeking clarity and purpose in life.

    Gill Hasson has 20 years' experience teaching and writing on a range of issues to do with personal and professional development, mental health and wellbeing. She is the author of more than 22 books; the bestselling Mindfulness, Mindfulness Pocketbook, Emotional Intelligence, Positive Thinking, the Sunday Times bestseller How to Deal with Difficult People, plus other books on the subjects of resilience, communication skills and assertiveness.
