I have epilepsy as you know it is not something you can catch, sometimes
you are born with this illness and other times it can develop anytime in ones life.
there are many types of epilepsy such as focal seizures which I have, there are to many to list here not just the one type of epilepsy which is generalised tonic clonic
{grand mal } where the person convulses as the media and TV shows .
which is why epilepsy is so misunderstood .
I am here to tell you we are just the same as everyone else except we have an illness
people cannot see most of the time. epilepsy is not a barrier as some people think
no neurological illness is a barrier.
and I would like to tell you how hatha yoga has helped with my epilepsy .
I feel hatha yoga is a god send, my seizures are set off with late nights, lack of sleep, heat, stress and not eating properly .
my seizures cant be seen by people. it is only me that knows when they happen because of the warning I get leading up to my seizure unless I tell my husband or whoever I am with at the time I have no visual signs you see that is why it is so hard to try and explain the sensation I get down my right side to Drs etc., for example the other day I was so stressed I was having one seizures one after the other, I was so ill I just had to go to bed because my head was so very heavy and sore I could hardly keep my eyes open.
I got up the next day having slept well did my hatha yoga workout and I am ok today still having them but they are getting less and less just faint ones I had to have a day off yoga yesterday because I was so sick.
but usually I do hatha yoga seven days a week for 88minutes and my husband and Dr suggested yoga actually , and I am so glad they did , and I love every stretch .
I feel fantastic afterwards and so calm . I cant believe how much my health has improved because of hatha yoga it's a miracle ! not only my health but my body has been shaped into its natural shape it puts the unwanted fat where it should be.
hatha yoga is not an adventure it is a journey and a personal one for each and every one of us
hatha yoga is a joy it is also a gift.
Namaste,
