Oft werden wir im Alltagsstress von unseren Gefühlen übermannt und wissen nicht, wie wir mit unseren Ängsten umgehen oder unsere innere Stärke wiederfinden können. Hier kann die stoische Philosophie eine große Hilfe sein. Schon in der Antike war sie eine der erfolgreichsten lebensphilosophischen Schulen. Um 300 vor Christus von Zenon von Kition gegründet und von großen Denkern wie Seneca, Mark Aurel und Epiktet vertreten, ist sie bis heute unschlagbar in ihrer stringenten Art, Gelassenheit und Gleichmut gegenüber den Untiefen des Lebens zu vermitteln.

Math and science require a heightened state of concentration. It needs rational, sequential, and analytical ways to solve issues. The prefrontal cortex of your brain, which sits just below your brow, is thought to be involved in concentration when you're in focused mode. Mathematical ideas are often more abstractly encoded than those of common language, and it is possible that humans have not developed through millennia to manage them. Because of their abstraction and encryption, it's possible to think about math and science, but it takes more time and effort to do so.

Smells are the colour that enrich our experience of life. Ask anyone to reflect on their sense of smell, and they immediately start talking. First there are discussions about food, but quickly they move on to personal topics: about the smells that evoke memories of childhood, dead relatives, pregnancy, love and sex. When people talk about their sense of smell, they also tell us something about themselves, their feelings, thoughts and relationships. Thus, the sense of smell not only reflects the chemical world outside us, but also bears witness to our inner world, our feelings and thoughts.
