Stoicism in the psychology context refers to an ancient Greek philosophy that emphasizes rational thinking, emotional resilience, and the pursuit of Virtue as the path to a fulfilling life. Although originally a philosophical system, Stoicism has influenced modern psychological practices, particularly in cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), by promoting the idea that we have control over our own responses to external events, even when we cannot control the events themselves.
Stoicism is the belief that one should live according to nature's plan and accept one's fate with indifference or, in the case of extreme hardship, with courage.

Stomach in the context of psychology refers to the interplay between digestive health and mental well-being. It explores how psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, and depression can influence gastrointestinal function and vice versa. The stomach and the gut are often referred to as the "second brain" due to the complex enteric nervous system that communicates with the central nervous system, affecting mood and behaviour.
