– Many athletes like to pride themselves on being “tough” and pushing themselves to the limits. They are hyper-focused on their goals and apply all their energy towards the big game, race, or performance coming up in the near future or the end of the season. They wake up early to work out, put in extra practice time, go on muscle-building diets, and even sacrifice social time in order to squeeze in every possible second of perfecting their skills. But are they taking proper care of themselves mind, body and spirit?

– Suicide is the fourth leading cause of death for college athletes. While athletes have many protective factors in place (e.g., community, resources, regular exercise), the pressure to succeed and time constraints can elevate their risk of developing suicidal thoughts. The stressful nature of participating in college athletics, where winning at all costs is paramount, can significantly affect student-athletes and their mental wellbeing.

PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS: The Athletic Route – The most important part to note is that playing is a keystone habit. This means that daily sports can pave the way not only for happiness but also for growth in all other areas of your life. One way to achieve this is to create a so-called “reward”, that will remind you of the good feelings you get from playing sports.
