Creating an online version of my course has been the most amazing challenge for me. I started out with the unshakable belief that I wasn’t the sort of person who could do face-to-camera delivery, and tried so many ways to gain confidence with that. It took me a while to realise there was really only one way to address this, and that was by running live webinars. The best part was that I knew the content inside and out, as at that point I had been teaching, coaching, researching and writing about this material for around 30 years.
You can see below what a webinar looks like on the screen. I present slides and respond to comments in the chat box, or those emailed to me from those who aren’t attending live. The interaction is crucial to me for many reasons; partly because I’ve been immersed in this material for so long I can lose sight of how radical it is – especially to long-term yo-yo dieters.
It’s very important to me to use everything I teach in my own life, and I enjoy ongoing benefits such as staying on top of systemic inflammation in general and arthritis in particular – and maintaining a loss of three dress sizes over decades. I fully intend to live through my later years as healthy as I can: free from chronic disease, pain and medication. I know what I eat is the major factor in this, both the quality of the food – and eating less of it.
