On World Mental Health Day, let's talk about ‘Self Love and You’ with Roposo

For several years, people across the globe didn’t understand the concept of mental well-being. In fact, mental health awareness as well as advocacy has been exceptionally low. But in recent years, we are seeing a gradual shift. Self-care and mental health are the new buzz words for Gen-Z now. People are now learning and practicing different methods of self-care routines such as stress management, self-love on a regular basis and are also educating themselves and others mental health.

To celebrate this further as well as educate people about mental health, and to promote awareness and advocacy against social stigma, Roposo is back with S.L.A.Y (Self-Love and You) season 2 for its 200 million plus consumers. On World Mental Health Day (October 10^th), Roposo will host a day-long celebration on its platform, encouraging consumers and creators to prioritize their wellbeing, through a series of LIVE shows.
