Mental Wellness and Epilepsy – November 12, 2021

Emotional wellness is important for all of us—people with epilepsy, family members, other caregivers, and friends. Mood disorders, depression, and anxiety can have a direct impact on our emotional health. These problems can also affect how we feel physically. They can affect other health problems too. Join in to the discussion on the many ways to improve emotional health. Techniques such as meditation, journaling, art therapy, and cognitive behavior therapy can help people understand and manage their feelings and needs better.

In this time of uncertainty­ and our commitment to the health and safety of our community, EFH will host virtual educational talks throughout the month of November. Like our annual conference, this speaker series aims to inspire, educate, and connect local residents throughout Hawaii to epilepsy-related resources available.
