One thing that we love is when someone puts their mental health first. We think that it’s something that is so important and something that we wish we would have done for ourselves long ago.
When a celebrity takes time for themself, we do admit that there are a lot of questions and those questions make a lot of people nervous to speak out. But Shawn Mendes, well he ignored and dealt with things his own way when he cancelled his tour. He found his way and wasn’t afraid to speak out about his mental health.
And he wasn’t afraid to prioritize himself. We love that.
“I found that in moments of extreme anxiety or fear if i sat down with my harmonium and allowed myself with full trust to sing whatever came out it would often ease the pain. it felt so difficult at first to let myself sing without needing perfection but after a while i actually started to fall in love with the dance between the ‘right’ and the ‘wrong’ notes … i realized there were only moments of bliss and euphoria from the ‘right’ notes BECAUSE of the ‘wrong’ notes. The only reason i can sing in key is because i’ve learned to listen,” Mendes wrote on an Instagram post.
He continued, “The biggest lesson for me this year has been to accept and welcome the lows of life… not to constantly need to change or fix something in order to feel high again, because i know if i really slow down and listen when i’m low there’s always something to hear.”
