In this brief video, David Brimacombe outlines a simple morning routine for individuals recovering from post-concussion syndrome. After completing breathwork and basic morning tasks, he encourages viewers to identify three specific actions they can control that day—such as five minutes of gratitude journaling, choosing healthy food, and going to bed on time. He emphasizes writing these controllable actions down, committing to them, and not worrying about external factors like weather, others' reactions, or work events. When concussion symptoms flare, he advises acceptance and a continued focus on the chosen controllables, fostering a sense of agency and reducing anxiety.
