If Not Us, Then Who? is more than a well-being forum — it’s a call to illuminate what’s long been kept in the shadows. This online gathering, hosted by Hidden Truths Project, invites us to witness the lived experience of epilepsy through the lens of art, empathy, and truth-telling.
Join us for Musical Medicine — a powerful exploration of music’s influence on the brain, the body, and the heart.
Research shows that music can:
Shape how our nervous system functions and releases neurotransmitters.
Evoke complex emotions that go far beyond “happy” or “sad.”
Ease the psychological distress of illness.
In rare cases, trigger musicogenic seizures — revealing deep connections between emotion, memory, and the electrical discharges in the brain in people with epilepsy.?
Music as knowledge. Music as healing. Music as storytelling from the inside out.
What to Expect: Musician and advocate Guy W. Stoker will guide us through Purple Universe, a genre-spanning album giving voice to the lived experience of epilepsy. Together, we’ll explore isolation, medication side effects, and — in a powerful twist — hear from epilepsy itself.
