Better! with Dr. Stephanie Concussion as a Growth Opportunity with Paul Attia – Part 2
In this part of the conversation, Paul discusses how he adapted his exercise routine due to his concussion symptoms - walking became his main form of exercise. He focused on progress and embracing what he could do instead of focussing on what he had lost.
He also shares his new interest in functional neurology and the positive impact of bodywork on the brain. We both emphasize the importance of listening and supporting others in their process. With the right mindset, coping with a concussion and external events can actually lead to personal growth.
