Our Guest: Neil Brewin — military veteran who supports amputees to improve mindset, daily mood and wellbeing. LinkedIn
What we cover (quick skim)
- Sleep & Recovery — why consistent sleep is the base for mood, pain tolerance and rehab progress; simple fixes like a wind-down alarm and caffeine curfew.
- Movement & Strength — gentle daily movement to manage pain (including phantom pain), build confidence, and protect joints; chair- and prosthesis-friendly options. LinkedIn
- Nutrition & Hydration — small, sustainable tweaks (protein with every meal, fruit/veg first, water habit pairing) to support healing and energy.
- Mindset & Stress — micro-tools for tough days: box breathing, gratitude notes, pacing, and “win of the day” check-ins.
- Connection & Purpose — peer support, volunteering, and realistic goals to beat isolation and keep rehab meaningful.
