Bhav - Brand Ambassador
The best thing I’ve found to help improve my mental health is music. I wanted to find something new that involved one of my passions but also allowed me to free my mind of anything that was playing on it in a negative way. So I learnt how to DJ and became a radio presenter; it’s been one of the best things I’ve ever done. It’s allowed me to find both a hobby and a way of taking time out to just think about nothing and just enjoy myself - just me and a pair of headphones, no background noise, no worries.
Music is an expressive art that allows you to feel a range of emotions depending on the vibe of a song. Being able to control the songs to align with how I feel allows me to express any feelings and emotions I may be holding inside. It’s also given me a boost of confidence in myself and what I’m capable of - enough to be able to write this!
In the last few years mental health has become more of a conversational topic but I definitely feel like it is still considered ‘taboo’ - especially for men. I chose to be an ambassador for YANA because it’s not just a brand, but a platform for people to feel a part of and be inspired by to break the stigma around mental health and to know that it’s okay not to be okay.
