The Michigan High School Athletic Association has teamed up with a mental health training program, "be nice." to better help athletes and their mental well-being.
It was 1996 and Katie Teft-Minasola was an alternate for the US Women's gymnastic team at the US trials. As an elite athlete, she has put in many long hours training. She has a complete understanding of the pressure that athletes go through.
Not only does it feel good to just "let it out" but there is also some science behind how crying can help us and our bodies in more ways than you think!
