The Humanity of the College Athlete

Source: https://www.podbean.com/eau/pb-m54gf-13bd7e2 Our culture idolizes collegiate athletes. We watch them on TV, fans wear branded gear, and booster’s donate billions to the universities. They appear to be in the prime of life, physically and mentally gifted, with promising futures. How do we avoid turning them into idols, or performers, and preserve and develop their humanity during these few years they are on that stage? In the second of two episodes from the campus of Liberty University, Doc interviews Neil Binette, who oversees mental health and performance services for student athletes at Liberty. Neil shares that in his experience, conventional counseling becomes much more effective when the athlete has a better regulated nervous system.
