Doing Life During COVID-19: Mental Health and Mindfulness with Dr. Jason Ong

Narcolepsy 360

Part of Wake Up Narcolepsy’s mission is to provide supportive resources for people with Narcolepsy and their families. During this time of massive daily life alterations, we want to continue to offer those resources.

We are all going through a traumatic event together and as we are adapting to a new normal within our homes some may find it difficult to create structure. We created a miniseries called Doing Life During COVID-19 to address different aspects of daily life we may need extra support with during this time.

Our first episode in our Doing Life During COVID-19 miniseries is addressing mental health and mindfulness practices. In this episode, Wake Up Narcolepy's Executive Director, Claire Crisp has a conversation with Dr. Jason Ong, Associate Professor in the Department of Neurology at Center for Circadian and Sleep Medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, about mental health, depression, anxiety and mindfulness for people with narcolepsy, especially during this time of safer at home.
