Definition
A state of serene calmness and composure; freedom from emotional disturbance and anxiety; inner tranquility.
Etymology
From Greek 'ataraxia' (imperturbability) — 'a-' (not) + 'taraxis' (disturbance). The Stoics and Epicureans both pursued ataraxia as the highest state of being — unshakeable peace.
Kelly Says
The ULTIMATE chill! Ancient Greek philosophers spent their LIVES trying to reach this state of unshakeable calm! Stoics and Epicureans fought about EVERYTHING except this: ataraxia was the goal! It's enlightenment, Greek-style! 🧘â€â™‚ï¸â˜®ï¸
