Instead of being overwhelmed by the physiological experience of the emotion. It creates psychological distance so you can experience it from a less threatening vantage point.\u201d   Here at the Injured Athletes Club, we talk a lot about the roller coaster of emotions. Today, on this host-ful episode, Coach Carrie guides us through some of the ups and downs you\u2019re likely to feel along the way.   Emotions\u2014which are actually different from feelings\u2014are messengers, if only we can listen to them, she explains. Pausing to get super specific about what you\u2019re feeling can prevent you from getting overwhelmed by what can feel like a monster hiding under the sand. Once you know what you\u2019re dealing with, you can decide how to move forward.   From there, she talks through a few specific emotions injured athletes often encounter, including denial, shame, and guilt. And then there\u2019s hope\u2014which, though it sometimes feels like it, shouldn\u2019t be a four-letter word.   Resources\/links: Worksheets from Rebound (including the Emotion Decoder)   A huge thank you to LEVER Movement, the exclusive sponsor of season 9 of The Injured Athletes Club podcast!
