Scoots,
As Jo*Mar said, the no screens means no stimulating screens, etc. It is important to stimulate good brain blood flow to help the brain purge the toxins from the injury. Napping and too much rest can disrupt getting good sleep at proper sleep times. You want to maintain proper sleep times and get quality sleep.
Find a low stress activity will be beneficial. I would expect you to also need some neck care. Many concussion symptoms are magnified by subtle upper neck injuries that cause inflammation that can disrupt vertebral blood flow to the brain. Icing your neck can be helpful.
Read the Vitamins sticky for some good info. Be sure to check the recipe for crushable ice packs. Most of the information is in the first post and one on page 46. (linked from the first post)
