About Meditations

The private journal of a Roman emperor, never meant for publication. Marcus Aurelius wrote these short reflections on duty, mortality, and resilience for himself — and they’ve been a self-help bestseller for almost two thousand years.

Why it works as an audiobook

Short aphoristic entries are ideal for sleep-timer listening — one chapter (often just a few pages) per evening. The most-listened-to philosophy audiobook for a reason.
