Someone who actually specializes in epilepsy, they are your best bet for quality information.

Meditation is supposed to be relaxing so don\u2019t sweat it if you find your mind wandering. Just bring it back to you breath and don\u2019t judge your thoughts. Make sure u have a good posture when mediating. Try to bring the top back of your head as close to the ceilings possible and have a slight tilt down with your head. You head should always be tilted slightly downward. I don\u2019t know much about Tempral Love Epilepsy but based on what I looked up, I would consider looking at mediation and surgery if you haven\u2019t done that already. And if not I would just try to specifically work on easing your anxiety. Use the app Shine. You can get it at the apple App Store. It is a wondering resource<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Purple S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Being that I&#39;m nearly a doctor, I&#39;d say you can do whatever type of meditation that you want. It is up to you to experiment and see what works best, breathing body scan to start with if you didn&#39;t try it yet and go from there. Try insight timer the app. They have some great healing meditations. Sending light your way!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Amanda F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Ah! If you experience the emotional type of temporal lobe seizures, where sudden fears or sick to your stomach things happen, or even if you notice random body sensations such as sounds, etc during a seizure, then I highly recommend Headspace! They have a variety of techniques for helping you overcome being involved emotionally with the experience &#8211; to either \u201cnote it\u201d and not become wrapped up in it &#8211; or to refocus on other bodily sensations with a body scan &#8211; or to help imagine new ones with sunlight filling your body &#8211; and a couple others I believe. I struggle with anxiety and found these as super helpful &#8211; I don\u2019t know if they will help during your seizures given the nature of the situation, but it might be worth a try! At least to learn how to ride the waves a little easier \ud83d\ude42 I hope this helps!! And way to go in at least trying to find something that may help!!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mekale N.
