Episode 4: The Ups and Downs of Epilepsy
Epilepsy brings many challenges, which are important to discuss so we can feel heard, not feel so alone, and help others understand what we go through. It is also important to take a moment to reflect on the positives that can come of the things we experience in our lives.
This episode covers the ups and downs of living with epilepsy, both from my own perspective and from several others who shared their experiences online.

Episode 3: Epilepsy and Memory
Epilepsy can impact our memory and cognitive function in many ways. This episode will help understand the processes occurring in our brains and how to help deal with the challenges we face. It also provides a range of individuals' experiences with epilepsy and its impacts on day to day function and well-being.
The HOBSCOTCH (Home Based Self-Management and Cognitive Training Changes Lives) Program I discussed is available in several parts of the world. Search HOBSCOTCH followed by the place you live to determine if it is available to you!

Episode 2: Breathwork/Meditation for Epilepsy
Calming the nervous system can be essential for those living with (and caring for) epilepsy. Today I share the breathwork and mantras I use to deal with feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and/or that I can no longer trust my own body because of my epilepsy.
I would love to connect about your thoughts on this as well as your own techniques for nervous system regulation. Email me at thediariespodcasts@gmail.com or DM me on Instagram @the_diaries_podcasts

Thank you for listening,
