Naomi Osaka partnered with wellness brand Hyperice for whom she is narrating a guided meditation in order to help people improve their mental health.
Osaka has tried to establish herself as a useful voice in the sports community ever since she went public with her own mental health issues. She wants to encourage players to talk openly about their own challenges with mental health in order to remove the stigma associated with the subject.
In the past, mental health was mostly disregarded, but in the present era, people are embracing their fragility and using their platforms to speak out about it. Osaka admits to being one of them and wants to use "Relax with Naomi" to assist others in reducing daily stress.
“I want to be a voice in helping those who may not be as open when it comes to the topic of mental health,” explained Osaka.
"I hope the meditation I co-developed with Modern Health can inspire those to start a practice of their own as it has helped me so much in my mental health journey. I'm excited to combine my long-time support of Hyperice with my advocacy role at Modern Health to help make mental health practices more accessible and approachable for everyone.”
