As a lifelong advocate of health and wellness, my work has spanned four decades. It began when I was 12 years old. After school, I would merchandise the grains, beans and pulses in our local food store. In the 80s, I taught aerobics. In fact, I came across a photograph of me the other day taken during this time, and it made me laugh out loud. I was the Jane Fonda of Scotland, with matching headband, leg warmers and lycra to die for! I thought I was the cat’s pajamas! Was that the start of my ‘wellness revolution’ phase, I wonder, getting people interested in health and not sickness? It has been my life’s work.
