When life throws you down, you can climb a mountain? or watch a video? Yes, as strange as it might sound, recent news has revealed that mountain climbing videos can aid mental health and fitness. With the ever-growing stress in one?s life, the levels of dopamine are often found wanting in a person. This leads to low self-esteem, which, in turn, contributes to bad mental health.?

Recent studies have pointed out the fact that maintaining a healthy level of mental peace is as important as sound physical health. In a mission to spread awareness to a larger mass, a group of three coaches have undertaken an interesting mission. Let’s dig deeper.

Mental health gets the spotlight as gymnastic coaches aim for the summit

It all started when Alex Rawson, Mark Davenport, and Adam Davies thought of ascending the Ben Nevis. Rawson is aged 30 while Davies and Davenport share the identical age of 30. They thought: Why don?t we record our strenuous climb and teach people a lesson of never giving up? Well, as per recent reports, the idea seems to be a fantastic one.?

While climbing the highest mountain in the UK, all three friends started live-streaming the event. This has been specifically done to make people realize that just like climbing the 1000m altitude of the mountain is tough, life too, is not easy. Rawson stated that they wanted men to come out of their shells and be open about their day-to-day struggles. He further elaborated that only when a problem is openly discussed can that be cured.?

Apart from this Rawson also chimed in, saying that all three of them suffered from unstable mental health at some point in their life. The three climbers are also raising money through their event which will be donated towards the cause of improving men?s mental health.?

The trio has taken up a tenacious task to raise funds for ‘Men’s Minds Matter’ charity and encourage men to speak out when they’re struggling.

Their only aim now is, “To try and encourage men to speak out when they are struggling in life and not to suffer in silence”.

Davies, Davenport, and Rawson are truly working together towards a better future. Their audacious expedition and resilience to promote men’s mental health and work toward suicide prevention are nothing short of inspiring.
