If there has been one constant across professional sports in recent years, it has been the investment of organizations for their athletes to improve their mental health.
The Buffalo Bills are just another example of a team doing so.
The Bills announced on their website that the team clinician and sport psychologist Dr. Desaree Festa, will provide a series of 'Mental Moments' to help equip everyone with tools to enhance our mental and emotional resilience.
This is an expected tool to be used for the players on the roster, but also the fanbase that continues to go to the team's website for new information.
"The way you speak to yourself matters!" Dr. Dez shared. "You are with yourself 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You talk to yourself more than you talk to anyone else. Your inner dialogue, also known as self-talk, is a powerful tool that shapes how you think, feel, behave, and perform. In fact, your inner voice can propel you forward, or it can hold you back."
Buffalo has been a leading franchise in the improvement of mental health across the board in the NFL. For a team that has won the last five division championships in the AFC East, the Bills continue to build a culture of respect for both their players and fans.
It's why Bills Mafia continues to be one of the top fanbases in the sport at this point.
It won't be long before other teams in the league adopt this same plan as well.
