Mpora's video: Eli Bishop Using The Outdoors To Battle Anxiety And Depression

When the stresses of a pressurised job and relationship difficulties boiled over, it led to Eli Bishop having a mental breakdown. Having suffered from anxiety from a young age, this moment marked a turning point in Eli’s life. It was an incident which helped her realise that only a fundamental lifestyle change could offer her a way out. It was at this point that Eli fully embraced the outdoors – a place where she’d always felt most at peace. Eli packed in her job, moved to the idyllic Wye Valley, and became an outdoors instructor. The move had a transformative impact and rebalanced her life in a way that put mental health first. This video is brought to you in partnership with Merrell and Mind.
