1. You are a retired complimentary therapist. What drew you to this line of work?

I had M.E. and slept for six years. I then recovered through complementary therapies and got hooked on exploring them and helping others to wellness.

2. You’re originally from the island of Easdale but re-located to Cumbernauld. What do you like best about living here?

I love the benefit of living in a town but enjoying the countryside and woods near by.

3. What is the part of your life you look back on with most affection?

I most enjoyed my recovery from illness and being able to walk again and to row myself to work because I lived on the island and loved being fit enough to get back out there on the sea and in nature.

4. Your take on star signs?

I am open minded. Well I am Cancer, a water sign and I do love the sea!

Reiki, the therapy that gave me back my life and opened up a whole new pleasure in living life to the full.

Life is short, make the best of it.
