11 Reasons Why You Chose To Eat Healthily
Of course, there are more benefits than just the 11 stated.
Here are some more benefits of adopting a Primed Lefestyle.
Be Grateful
13. Be Grateful for your Food and Friends
When you eat your nutritious food be thankful for all the people who helped it get onto your plate. Aid your digestion by taking your time and putting down your fork between mouthfuls as digestion begins in your mouth when your food comes into contact with your saliva.
“Appreciation can make a day, even change a life. Your willingness to put it into words is all that is necessary.” Margaret Cousins,
Think of all your friends, colleagues and loved ones who have helped you to this point in your life. Send them a text message, call them, send an email or visit them and let them know how you feel. Sincerely express your gratitude for having them in your life. You will make them feel great and will also feel great too.
“The deepest craving of human nature is the need to be appreciated.” William James

Primed Roast Lamb with Roast Squash and Garlic
We love Lamb in our household. Either NZ (where I was born) our Aussie (where I mainly grew up) is great for us. Lamb is a great source of easily digestable high-quality protein that provide all the essential amino acids. Lamb is also high in Iron, Zinc, Vitamin B12 and Omega-3 Fatty Acids.
Serve your Lamb with delicious roasted vegetables and you have a nutritious meal for your family. We also love using the bones to make our bone broth soup.

Rack of Lamb
Squash (whole piece)

Learn from your Elders
20. Learn from your Elders
The holiday season is a time for families to get together. Listen intently to your elders so you can learn from their experiences and appreciate them more.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,

What’s Your Motto/Mantra? If you don’t have one then create one in preparation for 2015.

25. Be Positive
You need to love yourself to love others.
Bring positivity into your life and say the following sentences to yourself daily: “I am happy.” “I am prosperous.” “I am healthy.”
Surround yourself with good fiends who are also positive and who have similarly healthy habits. Being positive is also a key ingredient to longevity.
