Stoicism is very applicable, I recently skimmed/read The Philosophy of Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Stoic Philosophy as Rational and Cognitive Psychotherapy and I recommend it for those curious whether it is practically viable.

Some blog posts for those curious before katydee writes her post:

1) Stoicism 101 by Ryan Holiday

2) How I became a Stoic over at Boing Boing

3) On the Shortness of Life: An Introduction to Seneca
