Pineapple Support, Streamate Team for Online Wellness Event

LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support and Streamate have teamed with therapist Ingrid d'Aquin for a three-day online wellness event, running May 18 to 20, with a specific focus on alleviating stress and anxiety caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

Industry members are invited to sign up for a free, 30-minute, one-on-one guided meditation session with d'Aquin.

"Enjoy a moment of catharsis and leave the session with relaxation techniques you can start using immediately to calm and center yourself," they said.

D’Aquin will also host a webinar on May 18, 11 a.m. (PDT), to discuss the effects of depression, anxiety and isolation.

"You are not alone," said d’Aquin. "Join us in this webinar where we will explore what makes a person resilient and learn simple, take-home techniques to cultivate a stronger ability to bounce back and adapt to life’s fastballs."

Liz, director of marketing for Streamate, expressed pride at the opportunity to give back to the community.

“The world as we know it has changed — at least for now,” she said. “We are all learning to adjust, and some may be forgetting about self-care, an important part of our overall well-being. Streamate is not only proud to partner with Pineapple Support on this event, but we feel it’s imperative to offer all individuals the ability to re-center and gain focus to combat loneliness during these interesting times.”

Pineapple Support was founded in 2018 by British performer Leya Tanit in response to losses in the adult industry from depression, addiction and other mental illnesses. The organization, a registered nonprofit in the United States and a registered charity in the U.K., has so far connected over 1,000 adult performers to free and low-cost mental health services.

"COVID-19 has affected all of us. It is important to take time out, away from your daily stresses and have a moment of calm and the wellness event aims to provide those within the industry with just that,” Tanit explained. "During each session, Ingrid will guide you with breathing techniques and exercises that you can transfer to your daily routine."
