But often, our anxiety lingers long after it\u2019s useful. Our bodies and minds don\u2019t always recover at the same rate, Coach Carrie explains in this week\u2019s listener Q&A (that\u2019s why deliberately working on your mental skills is so important!).   Phantom pains and fears of re-injury are totally normal after a bone stress injury, she points out. To reset your nervous system and ease excessive fears, she recommends focusing on breathing.    You can also coach yourself through in the second person, telling yourself you\u2019re safe and strong. Or, you might try experimenting with naming your injury, creating a bit of psychological distance that turns an anxiety-provoking moment into a thoughtful conversation with your body.    Resources\/links: Sign up for our mailing list to get the free mp3s, including diaphragmatic breathing   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 9 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!
