Ataraxia

Ataraxia is a state of peaceful calm and mental serenity, free from distress, anxiety, or emotional turmoil. Originating from ancient Greek philosophy, particularly Stoicism and Epicureanism, it describes a balanced mind with contentment and freedom from worry. Achieving ataraxia involves managing desires and fears, cultivating equanimity, and accepting life's unpredictability. It’s often viewed as an ideal mental state where one experiences harmony, clarity, and emotional stability, allowing for a composed and focused life.
