In honor of Mental Health Awareness week, BLACK ENTERPRISE is gathering helpful guides and resources to support those facing mental health challenges within the Black community. Taking care of yourself is crucial and incorporating self-care practices into your daily routine can greatly reduce stress levels.
One self-care activity that has gained popularity in recent years is listening to podcasts. Not only are they a convenient form of entertainment, but they can also offer valuable insights and conversations on mental health, specifically within the Black community.
One highly recommended podcast is Black Girl in Om, founded by Lauren Ash. This collective focuses on promoting wellness and providing resources for Black women looking to establish a healthy self-care routine. The podcast features discussions on various topics related to mental health and self-care, providing valuable information and support.
Another great podcast to add to your listening list is Affirm, hosted by former therapist Davia Roberts. The show centers on mental health conversations and the importance of seeking wholeness in your self-care routine. Roberts offers valuable insights and advice based on her own experiences and expertise in the field.
Therapy for Black Girls is another highly acclaimed podcast, hosted by Dr. Joy Harden Bradford. This podcast was inspired by Dr. Bradford's directory of the same name and focuses on mental health topics specifically relevant to Black women. The conversations are informative, relatable, and offer a safe space for listeners to learn and grow.
Finally, Between Sessions, hosted by licensed therapists Eliza Boquin and Eboni Harris, is a podcast created through their service, Melanin & Mental Health. This service helps individuals connect with licensed therapists specializing in mental health issues within the Black and Latinx communities. The podcast features insightful discussions on various mental health topics and offers valuable resources for those seeking support.
It's encouraging to see the rise of podcasts centered around mental health in the Black community. These podcasts provide a safe and inclusive space for important conversations and offer valuable resources for individuals looking to prioritize their mental health. So why not add one (or all) of these podcasts to your playlist and take a step towards a healthier, happier you.
