Former World No.1
Naomi Osaka has partnered with Hyperice, a worldwide high-performance wellness brand, to launch a guided meditation called 'Relax with Naomi,' which is narrated by the four-time Grand Slam singles champion and mental health advocate.
Osaka became one of the most well-known professional athletes to advocate for the value of mental health when she publicly stated that she was taking a mental health break and stayed away from the WTA tour for an extended period last year.
Speaking about this in a press release, Naomi Osaka stated:
“I want to be a voice in helping those who may not be as open when it comes to the topic of mental health."
The 25-year-old, who is also a Hyperice Athlete Investor, hopes to work towards reducing the stigma around mental illness and increasing access to self-care for all. In 'Relax with Naomi,' Osaka is said to recite instructions while encouraging listeners to breathe in unison with calming high and low tones.
