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.
