We had a wonderful friendship group evolve organically during the winter of 2020.

Despite the adversity we all thrived and our Cold Thermogenesis and Positivity group remained vibrant and healthy without a single sickness all winter.

Here are my favourite pictures of our winter cold therapy fun.

Our Cold Thermogenesis and Positivity group rocks. We are so happy that Larry and Bonnie are part of our “family”.

Larry said :

“Reflecting on 2020, I want to thank you for being instrumental in getting me back into the sea and literally changing my life.”

“Larry and Bonnie rock.

I recently made a couple of dishes for Larry to try as a thank you to him for him getting Bonnie to be our first Cold Water Dog Coach.

*** Larry said:

“From having a water phobia Bonnie now loves the sea and can swim.” “Bonnie has never looked better and is no longer on anti inflammatory meds.”

I did one of my many acts of random kindness to Bartu and Mehdi yesterday. Great guys doing Science at Melbourne Uni.

We spent over an hour chatting about quantum physics. They now know to avoid sunscreen and sunglasses and to maximize sensible sun exposure and enjoy European water that has less deuterium than Australian water. Of course we talked about @drjackkruse

I added fresh cucumber and tomatoes to my 10 month old Primed Vegetate Kinilaw.

This dish has been pickling and getting better with age in my fridge since I made the big batch 10 months ago. Included ingredients are onions, garlic, ginger, cucumber, tomatoes, carrots, semi-dried tomatoes, pickled ginger, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and olive oil.

I then boiled 6 free range eggs and mixed my seafood of sardines, mussels and oysters together.

Your New Year’s Eve resolutions will be made but can you stick to them? How big is your desire for improvement?

My motto for 2021 is BED. This motto rocks for 2 reasons.

1. Sleep is the key to health. Sleep better and you will live better.

2. BED is an acronym for Better Every Day.

Without good sleep you are more likely to make poor decisions. By being better every day your Primed habits will help you sleep better.

My other motto is Grateful ALWAYS and Positive ALWAYS.

By starting now you can make the rest of your life the best of your life.

It is up to you.

You will be healthier and happier this coming year. You will get younger and fitter in mind and body!

Follow these key ingredients to ensure your 2021 is the best ever.

I love sardines. There is a very good reason why Primed people love seafood. 

1. Primed Omelette with sardines and okra. Very Filipino and very delicious.

Primed omelette here with sardines, fresh tomatoes, butter fried onions and chilli sauce.

“Larry rocks.

I met him one cold day on the beach and he asked if we could help him roll into the water @stkildabeach in November.

* We said fuck that! Let’s start tomorrow (which was early September I think).

@paulstef and I wheeled Larry into the water and he joined our awesome cold thermogenesis and positivity group.

We hugged, we laughed and we lifted each other up all winter. No fear. Not one cold among any of our group. @georgeabdulnour helped Larry as his legs strengthened in the cold. We rise by lifting others.

#wechangetheworld “

Since then we have loved doing cold thermogenesis with Larry. I gave Larry a copy of my book The Primed Life which he said was very good. Cool.

Larry left his wheel chair behind to jump into the cool waters of St. Kilda beach.

From my wonderful friend Primed Judith:

“7 years ago and today. The flabs are gone but the charm remains😊

It was a tough journey but I did it for the right reasons. Started with finding my motivation and setting of goals. My severe hypertension was reversed and I became physically fit and stronger. My shirt size went from XL to Small. I now train and join athletics competition as a Masters Athlete. My Coach and I are constantly working hard so I will become a better thrower, sprinter and jumper to help me with my events. It’s still a loooooong way to go but I am a very patient and motivated “work in progress”.

I sautéed my garlic in butter then added my butter fried onions which I have as a staple in my fridge.

I added this to my sardines in olive oil, hot smoked trout, pesto and some Lingham’s chilli sauce.
