Epilepsy HELL to Epilepsy WELL | why not do something about it? (Drug-Free Epilepsy Foundation)

By Alma Wayne Myers, MTOM (Masters in Traditional Oriental Medicine)

What do you do when the 'drugs' don't work? Who do you turn to when the doctors call you crazy? What happens when you decide you've had enough and want to 'do more' than the doctor tells you? Whether you are drug-resistant or just looking for a way to improve the quality of your life by taking care of yourself like you matter, then you are in the right place. Experience a life you are in control of and end epilepsy by being the hero in your own story. Become the CEO of your health while overcoming the ups and downs of your brain attacking you... after all, epilepsy is more than just a seizure.

MEDS are not Drugs

MEDS are not Drugs

Go take your MEDS is not the same as take drugs and let life happen to you. Some things are harder to swallow than a horse pill. Some things are just a breathe of fresh air. Ultimately, you decide when to choke with MEDS.

They Killed LeRoy

They Killed LeRoy

this is exactly what I expect out of people. When something is too hard for them, they will attack you for the way you make some feel or just run away and leave you to figure it out all on your own. It’s not your fault. These people are too small minded, small hearted,or lack compassion for others. However, it is your responsibility to find the right people to help you as well as get the results that you desire in your life. My friend is dead and there is nothing left to do to help him. Help yourself before it’s too late.

Kicking Rocks and Sick Of It

Kicking Rocks and Sick Of It

No one said it would be easy, but it’s worth it. After struggling to get back on track, it’s time for some self care and no more helping the wrong people destroy the sanctity of mental and physical heath and wellness. Happiness is an inside job and no one can tell you what it takes for you to find yours.

Karma Doesn’t Care

Have you tried hiding your head in the sand? What about establishing boundaries? Have you ever considered the karma of your actions? Maybe you can tell me where I went wrong… or did I?

Day 7: What's Left To Say?

Day 7: What's Left To Say?

Welcome to day 7 of the '7-days to Take Back Your Control from Epilepsy Hell challenge'... I know this has been a lot to take in in just 7 days so I tried to space it out so that you have time to catch up and get the most value out of the information being presented.
Feel free to go back and listen to any day you missed. It's not a race. One day at a time and one step in front of the other gets you places.
Take a deep breath and get ready for more about what you can do to End Epilepsy Hell and start to heal your brain so that you can enjoy more out of life and do more of what you want.
Remember to DO MORE than the doctor tells you and TAKE CARE of Yourself like You Matter... because YOU DO!!!

Day 6: What Kind Of Job is Happiness?

Day 6: What Kind Of Job is Happiness?

We continue more on Emotions and how you are the HERO you need for the 7-Days To Take Back Your Control From Epilepsy Hell Challenge that was recorded live inside of the FaceBook group 'Epilepsy Fight Club'.
"Live life like you are going to die, because you are." was a song by William Shatner that holds too much truth and a lot of value.
When is Now a good time to choose your own adventure and learn how to Live Your Life?
Feelings are for more than just your hands... Passion can bring you to goals but when it dies out... you need your WHY!
Not your 'why me', but your 'WHY you want to live'. Don't limit your happiness to the Science of Acheivement. You NEED to practice the 'Art of Fulfillment' to rise up from the ashes like a phoenix reborn.

Day 5: Locomotion or Loco Emotion?

Day 5: Locomotion or Loco Emotion?

Holistic you (mind, body, and emotion) - the care you give yourself and receive from others can bring up… feelings, also know as emotions. We all have them but what do they mean? They have a purpose and it's not to destroy your sanity.
In this episode we cover the generating cycle of emotions how I learned them from going to a 4-year masters program in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Short cuts to your success.
I hope you can learn to overthrow the tyranny of hypervigilance and how living with Epilepsy can feel like a punishment but somewhere it's really an opertunity to discover who you are and what really is worth your time, effort, and energy.
You are not alone. No one loves epilepsy; but you should love yourself enough to DO MORE than the doctor tells you, and TAKE CARE of Yourself like You Matter!
Take a deep breath and let all that tension and BS of Epilepsy Hell become Your Epilepsy Well.
You are the CREATOR of Your LIFE and it's time to feel good about yourself.
Thanks for investing in yourself and taking the time to learn how to choose your own adventure.
The Drug-Free Epilepsy Foundation in you, because you are the Superior Doctor in control of your HEALTHCARE TEAM. You decide what it all means and how you want to feel. Never let anyone else make your struggle about someone else feels. Lead with your heart and love yourself enough to build a life you can both enjoy and be proud of.

Day 4: How-to Eat With Epilepsy

Day 4: How-to Eat With Epilepsy

'Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food' is said to be a quote from Hypocrites, also called the father of medicine and the creator of the Hypocratic Oath to DO NO HARM to your patients. But who holds everyone accountable when you are blamed for your condition not letting the drugs work?
Epilepsy Sucks and when the dangerous 'black box' drugs aren't helping you, it's time to Eat Like You Matter and end the bitter-sweet sorrow of the epilepsy sucks and there has got to be more to life.
Thanks for listening in. I love and appreciate you. If people can hate for no reason then I can love for no reason. But the reason is Love is the Medicine to change your body chemistry and starts with LOVING YOURSELF enough do not just know what to do, but WHY it is you want to be the HERO in your story.
Holistic health means feeding your mind, body, and emotions that help you DO and BE your Best.
Bon Appetit!
