Book Description

May 13, 2005
The techniques in Live, Learn, and Be Happy with Epilepsy, will help the reader build the inner power to do anything or become anything they want in life. The approaches in this book for dealing with epilepsy will enable the reader to reform a better direction in their everyday life of living and dealing with their disorder. Most important, this book shows the reader that they they can live a happy, healthy life with epilepsy. There are people here that understand what they go through and support them. This program will help you build confidence in yourself. Once they establish self-assurance, the reader will start to see their inner strength boost. When one quality improves, all their other attributes will enhance also. This book will give them the tools to learn how to incorporate epilepsy into their life so the reader can live with the disorder on a positive note. The reader can make life anything they want if they have positive goals to focus on and if they have a good understanding of how to approach them. This book gives the reader the materials they need to gain encouragement and strength to overcome having epilepsy and being able to live life to its fullest. In this book, we will focus on certain topics related to epilepsy that not many have discussed. One of the main goals in this book is to help the reader recognize that life has much to offer. Life does not have to stop just because you have epilepsy. As mentioned earlier, in this book we will be discussing what people go through emotionally when they have epilepsy. We will be going over different ways to help the reader emotionally, physically and spiritually. The aim in this book is to show readers how to live with epilepsy, empowering them to take responsibility for their life and well-being. Although, I acknowledge how other people with epilepsy feel living with epilepsy-there is a deeper level of human experience that is necessary in order to live with epilepsy. Unlike other books on epilepsy, Live, Learn and Be Happy with Epilepsy, does not focus on the same subject matter. Instead, it tries to motivate epileptics, urging readers to create their own unique journal by employing psychological and spiritual practices in combination with a variety of more traditional diet and exercise regiments. While seemingly revolutionary, the message is simple: It is important that epileptics learn how to live with epilepsy and endure it. Everything you do and say affects the people around you. Eventually if people with epilepsy do not learn how to deal with all these issues, they could end up really destroying themselves emotionally, physically and spiritually. One way to prevent this from happening is to develop a lifestyle that is suitable for your own needs. The reader needs to make sure that they create a lifestyle that is going to make them happy over time. They need to be their own designer, creating pathways to a fulfilling future. There is a whole world in front of you. This world has millions of opportunities just waiting for you to encounter. It does not matter what age you are. You can achieve anything you put your mind too.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly written, potentially dangerous, February 17, 2008
By 
The author of "How to Get Wealthy Writing Informational Books for the Internet", also the author of this book, should be stopped. The information presented was only minimally specfic for epilepsy and included recommendations for relaxation, self-improvement, diet, exercise, etc. that one suspects will come out from the same author for a multitude of other diagnoses. One of the first recommendations for relaxation was to take a warm bath. Most neurologists warn against taking a bath alone because of the risk of drowning if a seizure occurs. The many grammar and spelling mistakes leads me to believe no editors or spellcheckers ever got near this manuscript. There are many books on the topic that are better than this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good review, September 9, 2010
This review is from: Live, Learn, and Be Happy with Epilepsy (Paperback)
This book "Live, Learn, and Be Happy With Epilepsy" is a good reminder of some simple, yet effective methods of coping with epilepsy. It obviously isn't a cure, but a helpful guide in giving some overlooked strategies in dealing with some of the non-physical aspects of the disease such as stress, anxiety, etc. This book is a good tool in the toolbox in dealing with epilepsy.
