Big Sean and his mother, Myra Anderson, are helping people out with affordable ways to improve their mental health.
The mother-son duo announced that they will be launching a weekly video series dedicated to mental health. Each of the videos will be between 10 to 15 minutes long, where they will be discussing low-cost or free techniques that will allow viewers to maintain and attain emotional balance.
Videos will be posted every Saturday throughout Mental Health Awareness Month on the rapper’s website, the Sean Anderson Foundation, as well as the foundation’s Instagram page. The episodes will cover different topics including dieting and exercise, sleep, and meditation.
In a statement, Sean said, “I feel that Mental Health Awareness Month is the perfect time to talk with my mom about some of the things I have learned from her that have helped me along the way, and I hope will help others.” The first episode will be released this Saturday.
The rapper has been very vocal about his previous mental health issues in which he admitted that it was the reason behind him canceling his tour with Playboi Carti in 2018. He would later seek help and dedicate some of his time to self-care.
In 2019, he opened up to fans about his issues in a three-part video. “I’m big on energy and I wasn’t feeling like myself and I couldn’t figure out why. So what I did was I stepped back from everything I was doing, everything I had going on, because somewhere in the middle of it, dawg, I just felt lost and I didn’t know how I got there.”
He continued, “So what I was I started therapy. I got a good therapist. I was blessed enough to talk to some super-spiritual people, and they made me realize what I was missing in life and one thing I was missing was clarity.”
