It’s mental health awareness week and so this episode is particularly poignant.
Jake Tyler has struggled with his mental health for a number of years. From the outside everything looked rosy, but in reality, he was fighting a private internal battle and was truly struggling.
Jake’s honesty is humbling as he discusses the challenges he experienced whilst suffering from depression - and what he did to try and take control of it.
One thing that helped was exercise. He started with going for a walk and developing a routine, a simple moment in the day that was something to focus on.
Over time he walked further and further until the walking turned to running.
Whilst not every run is fast and easy, each run does take him to a happier, more positive place, where he feels a little better. This sentiment is certainly something most of us can relate to.
This episode is a discussion of how something as simple and pure as a run can help you to turn your life around, and lead you to feel more empowered, more in control and have a far more optimistic outlook.
Jake’s story and experiences are incredibly inspiring, they might also make you consider setting some challenges so you too can feel even more alive.
Happy running.
