So now things are humming along. Everyone has veggies for dinner, the kitchen in mostly clean most of the time, there are two good meals on the table for dinner each week and you have your apron and shoes! We are well on our way!
Our next step is about keeping ourselves well …
We all work too hard for the most part and far too often we run on empty. You know what I mean. Skipping a meal here and there, staying up too late, having a plan for every hour of the day trying to cram a few more things in. And it all looks absolutely necessary I know … I do most of the same stuff when I fail to stop and think thru the consequences. Maybe it’s just getting older, I don’t know, but the consequences seem to come up a lot sooner than they used too .
For everything in our lives to work we have to maintain our health. It is the foundation upon all else rests. You know the old saying “If you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything.” So this weeks step is about keeping that high on your priority list. We need to feed ourselves first in order to be able to take care of everyone else.
What exactly is feeding yourself first all about?
It’s about eating good nourishing food regularly. Granny served 3 square meals a day and she sat down and ate them too! It’s about including superfoods like cod liver oil in your diet. And about getting enough sleep and relaxation time. Wondering where you’ll find the time for this?
The Granny Plan is unavailable as an eBook at the present time but feel free to read the summarized version on this site.
