Micro Morning Meditations offer a manageable way to practise Stoicism regularly. I’m Allan, and I write each edition around an idea you can bring into the worries, decisions and ordinary moments of your day.
The meditations are part of my paid subscription on Substack, delivered by email every Monday to Friday.
Each edition includes:
- A reflection of around 300 words, with an audio version.
- A summary illustration to help you remember the idea.
- A brief guided audio practice.
- Journal prompts to connect the reflection with your own life.

Read, listen or write—choose what feels useful that day. Although they’re called Morning Meditations, you can use them whenever you have a little time to yourself.
Membership costs £6 a month or £50 a year. It also includes monthly Lucky’s Letters, a series of mostly fictional, Stoic-inspired advice letters, and access to the archive of past meditations and letters.

Why return to Stoic practice each day?
A useful idea can be easy to forget when we’re tired, frustrated or caught up in a difficult conversation. Returning to it regularly gives us another opportunity to recognise when it might help.
As Seneca wrote:
Countless things that happen every hour call for advice; and such advice is to be sought in philosophy.
—Letter 16
That’s the purpose of these meditations: to make a little time for reflection, then carry something useful into the rest of the day.
You can begin with the next edition. If you miss a few days, simply pick up again whenever you’re ready.
All the best,
Allan
