Osaka wrote an article for Time magazine, where she detailed her struggles and why she felt the decision was the correct one for her at the time. Gaining substantial criticism for not attending press conferences, Osaka spoke out, saying that the press-conference format was "out of date" and in need of a total refresh. At the time she said: "I communicated that I wanted to skip press conferences at Roland Garros to exercise self-care and preservation of my mental health.
I stand by that. Athletes are humans. Perhaps we should give athletes the right to take a mental break from media scrutiny on a rare occasion without being subject to strict sanctions.
"In addition to the article, Osaka revealed on her social media pages that she had been suffering from "long bouts of depression", since 2018. She added: "Saying out loud that I'll take a break and I'll come back when I am truly in love with the sport and I know what I want to do here, it gave me time to reset. "Taking time out for herself, Osaka has worked tirelessly on being an advocate for talking about mental health and creating tools to help others who may find themselves struggling.
As part of this she has joined with Modern Health, in order to improve access to evidence-based mental health care, and promote community mental health and well-being. One of the main ways she is doing this is by sharing her own tips for meditation, which she started last year. After initially struggling to see the benefits of the practice, the tennis star has created her own meditation based on introductory methods to ease people into the process.
