Let's talk POST CONCUSSION RECOVERY.....
Are you past those first few months of concussion recovery and still feel trapped in symptoms? It's a lonely place.
And now you are asking yourself:
"Is this really as good as it gets??"
"Am I destined to live with these symptoms for the rest of my life?"
"Could this really just be anxiety?"
"Why isn’t therapy working?"
"What do I do now? I have No plan."
Despair. Panic. Anxiety. Isolation. Anger. Immobilization. Overwhelm. These feelings loom overhead.
What if I told you this is NOT how your life needs to stay.
Do you want you to feel NORMAL again? Be rid of those life altering symptoms like brain fog, poor balance and dizziness.
Do you want to go shopping, eat in restaurants, ride your bike, hike mountains and go to parties again without worrying about the loud music , that you can't handle the social or that you might fall?
Do you want your energy back to do what you want to do?
If you are anything like me, your desire is to get back to an ACTIVE LIFE.
Well keep reading because you are in the right place...

OT SHELLEY
Hello, I'm Shelley. An Occupational Therapist and yoga instructor specializing in concussion recovery. And I've recovered from a whole series of concussions.
I'm a cyclist, a yogi and a nature lover who loves to hike, swim in the ocean and be outdoors. With more than 20 years experience as an Occupational Therapist in neurology, I can tell you that occupation matters. We want to be able to do the things we love. And when we can't, because of impairment, things can absolutely go haywire in our mind, body and spirit.
What brought me here? As a concussion survivor myself, I've been on the search, I've done the exercises, I've felt the hard feels. But I saw something missing in traditional concussion care. Education. Empowerment. A Mind Body approach. The things that build resilience. And so slowly, The power of THREE began to emerge; A program combining the learning with the doing.
Welcome.
“Thank you 🙏. You helped me do all the right things after my concussion … who knew there were so many!? Doing normal stuff early, exercising for the brain, pacing, brain breaks…I learned a lot!
The yoga helped me see I wasn’t breathing properly and my body was holding so much tension from the trauma. It also helped me to calm my nervous system and get my neck and body moving again without getting scared by symptoms”
Chloe
“This program has put me on a clear path. I do not need to search and scramble for answers and guidance. Shelley navigates, supports us and challenges us through the daily obstacles of concussion ..
The yoga classes are incredibly valuable to have on hand at any time I need them..grounding and somatics classes have been my favourite so far; they create safety in my brain and body.
This course extends beyond concussion recovery, into a new, more mindful way of living. Thank You.”
Monika
