Other than your undefined rest, what treatments have you received for your two concussions ? Have you had any work done with your neck, especially your upper neck ? Most concussions include a subtle upper neck injury that, until treated, will make concussion symptoms much worse.
It would be worthwhile for you to read the Vitamins and Supplements sticky at the top. Look at the Nov 8, 2014 posting 101. It has the latest information. There is a link to good video series on YouTube called You look Great. You and your friends should watch it. It is 6 segments and takes almost an hour to watch all six. Well worth it.
Yoga poses that include neck flexions/extensions can be a problem.
My best to you.

well...the neurosurgeon I was sent to see says they are linked so without treating the mental portion they don't see much of an improvement with concussion symptoms or the sensitivities at least.
I have been attending physio twice per wk which involves IMS, Cranio sacral Therapy and Acupuncture. I also have a Nucca Chiropractor who does very slight and measured adjustments to the upper cervical spine...mediation and relaxation are what im currently learning to do as well.
