Dealing with patterns of behavior such as bullying and narcissism can be incredibly baffling and overwhelming, because the kind of communication and negotiation that might have worked in a more familiar situation can often be counterproductive in these cases.In this class we teach you how to apply Stoic ideas and practices when dealing with a difficult person.We detail the particular difficulties of dealing with bullying behavior and narcissistic traits, and explain how Stoic principles and practices can be helpful in situations in which the intentions of the abuser cannot be expected to change.This class can be useful to anyone who needs help in dealing with a person that represents an enduring obstacle in their daily life, especially those for whom no kind of well-meaning outreach has proven to work. This could be a colleague or manager at work, a partner, family member, or friend.Stoicism is not only a set of ideas, but also a set of practices that can be helpful in dealing with a variety of challenges in human life, and that have informed the development of modern psychological therapies.We show you how to use practices that apply the Stoic principle of dichotomy of control and the analysis of emotions as beliefs to deal with the internal manifestations of the conflict such as anxiety, fear, and anger.We also show you how to handle the external challenges of navigating daily life around the difficult person by applying practices that train your focus to be on actions that you can take, and not on worries about what may or may not happen.We look forward to seeing you in class!Matt & Andre
