In this segment of his YouTube video, David Brimacombe advises individuals recovering from post‑concussion syndrome (PCS) to employ mental visualization on days when physical activity feels impossible. He explains that even when a person feels unable to get out of bed or walk, they can lie still and vividly imagine themselves walking, increasing their exercise tolerance, and experiencing the sensations of movement. This mental rehearsal is presented as a practical way to keep the recovery process moving forward, helping the viewer feel closer to their desired level of function despite physical setbacks.

in reality. You need to apply this in your recovery. You need to apply those days that you feel like you can't get out of bed, you can't move, you can't actually try walking and applying and trying to increase your exercise tolerance, but you can visualize it. You can lie in that state and visualize what it's going to be, what it's going to feel like, what it's going to look like. That is possible, and that is getting you closer to where you want to be.
