After offering free mental health training at the beginning of the pandemic, the headspace has announced that he opened its services for free to a very vulnerable group for mental stress: teenagers. The new headspace company for adolescent initiatives is quite easy: children between 13 and 18 will be able to access the exercise options – including things to help you reduce stress, focus on attentive and better sleep – at no cost. The only requirement is that they register to become a non-profit member who focuses on youth carrying changes to the mind or peer exchanges. Headspace said it also planned to extend free offers around the world because partners with more non-profit.
“Through our research, we see that today’s teenagers are in a lot of stress and experience high levels of anxiety because of school demands, their work, extracurricular, social life, and general uncertainty about their future,” Alice Nathoo, “Head of the Social Impact in Headspace , said in a statement. “Although many teenagers have awareness and vocabulary for mental health problems, this does not always translate actions.”
Headspace for teenagers attended a similar program that focused on bringing mental health support to educators. To reach a more general audience, the company also made three shows for Netflix, including interactive entries similar to Black Mirror: Bandersnatch.
Given how an anxiety of the world can today, it makes sense for headspace to give people a sense of benefit from meditation, removes the pressure and solid bed habits. This is not a substitute for a therapist – as we explored in our guide to find mental health support at home during a pandemic – but the headspace offer still has the potential to help many people.
