Hello Camilla, I was wondering what sorts of things you felt you did too soon after your concussion? I recently had a concussion a week and a half ago and I am concerned I am doing too much too soon. I find it is hard to gage and difficult to navigate through the recovery process on my own. I am taking things moment by moment. I wonder if I have been online too much... still suffering headaches.... Here's to your full recovery - and mine too - and all the people who are suffering from TBI. Hoping this yoga practice might help me get more active again. All good wishes, Monique 🙏🌱✨
@@moniquesliedrecht397 Hello Monique, My biggest mistake was to keep running around as if nothing had happened. I had a constant headache, ringing in my ears and my balance was off so I kept bumping into things. To be honest, I was so messed up that I couldn't think straight and somehow thought I had to keep going my normal pace... I took painkillers every day but the headaches hardly diminished. After two or three weeks I completely collapsed; my legs just gave out, and I finally went to see my doctor. I got a brain scan and it showed significant swelling of the brain. ( Thank God no blood clots.) My doctor was upset with me because I should have rested immediately and keep quiet ( lots of naps, eyes closed, no screens or reading) directly after the concussion. Many treatments with a Cranio-Sacral therapist helped me a lot and an amazing Chiropracter used laser and a Bemer, which also made a huge positive impact. I am now 15 months after the accident and I still need more quiet time and cannot be in busy places with lots of people or noise because I still will get overwhelmed and tired. I am not complaining; I feel just like a changed person.. in a way I used this all to become more introspective... Good luck Monique!!
I'm grateful to find this series. I was a competitive athlete. After 7 years post TBI I was finally back to intense exercise, 6 days a week, hours every day. I sustained a concussion 3 weeks ago and have had to crawl at times, so unable to get my brain and muscles coordinated. I want to be moving but gently. Thank you
Thank you for posting the specific yoga for TBI ! You have no idea how many setbacks I experienced since my concussion in 2021. Did too much too soon…
