130. A Brain Injury is A 'Brain Injury' | Ana Hernandez - Sound Sensitivity & Cognitive Rehab The Post Concussion Podcast - Life After A Brain Injury

As a speech-language pathologist, Ana knew the theory behind cognitive rehabilitation, but facing the reality post-surgery was a journey she hadn't anticipated. Join for an eye-opening conversation where Ana shares the nuances of her recovery, highlighting the shared struggles of those rebounding from traumatic brain injuries.

We discuss sound sensitivity and the challenges of determining how much to rest during brain recovery. Discover how the subtle aid of earplugs, can significantly enhance quality of life by tempering the barrage of auditory stimuli. And it's not just about the silence – it’s about understanding the full spectrum of rest, from the physical to the sensory, and learning how to truly disconnect in order to feel better. This episode is a treasure trove of strategies and heartfelt insights that anyone touched by brain health issues will find invaluable.
