#8: 4 Fingers to Control Fear

Athletes sometimes are afraid of the unknown. When an athlete feels fear, sometimes they will try to push that feeling away. Doing this actually increases the fear and creates a fear of fear. The intense fear can actually cause athletes to feel out of control. In this episode, we talk about Dr. Siegel's idea of Name It to Tame It. We add something to his brilliant idea to help athletes have a quick tool to feel in control of intense emotions.

#7: Feelings vs Sensations

Sensations are your direct interaction with the world. They are involuntary and start in the body. Sensations are actually a very small percentage of how we experience the world.
