Teamwork goes beyond the field! 🏈
Last week, Shine had the opportunity to visit Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) to talk with their student athletes about mental health literacy, stress response, and healthy coping skills. 💬
Special thanks to Ashley Gustafson of Navigating Through Quicksand for kicking things off with a great icebreaker! We're always grateful for the chance to help people better understand how the brain and body respond to stress, and how to support themselves and each other 🧠💪
Special thanks to WPI Football for bringing the team out!
