Sports Therapy

I know if I am having a stressful day, I can't wait to get on the field for practice. I am a women's lacrosse goalie and practice is a time for me to work out my frustrations of the day. I walk on the field, leave my problems off the field, pick up my goalie stick and start passing with a teammate, and all my problems seem non-existent. I think a big part of it is that i am able to leave my problems off the field so it doesn't interfere with the game. Another part of it is that i have my whole team to support me. Having a group of people there to support you makes a big difference in life when you are going through some rough times. Our coach is also a mentor for us, and she makes a big difference in my life.

I think it is important for everyone to get involved on a team of some sort and having a sports team to work with is another plus. You get to work out your frustrations as well as have support.
