Today’s Primalmed Prescription…Listen to the Music!

A look back at the PrimalMed playlist for 2024… What’s your favorite?

It’s a gray misty morning here in Connecticut. A bit warmer than usual. A few confused birds still chirping, not sure if and when they should make the trek down to Boca Raton for the winter.

As I enjoy my second espresso (with a splash of foamed half n half and a sprinkle of cinnamon), and ponder my next post, I decided to first look back at the PrimalMed posts from 2024. And why not? I mean, if the New York Times can feature a retrospective on the top stories or top songs for the year, why not Your PrimalMed Prescription?

Did you know that each of the PrimalMD posts feature a song or two at the end. If you read the posts, then you know there is always a treat at the end. They’re magically delicious. Each tune carefully selected as a tie-in to the featured topic!

Did you know that most times, I hear the song first which THEN spurs the creative thought process as I craft the post.

So here is the year in review, the 2024 PrimalMed playlist. 22 songs. In each post is the Spotify link. Link em all together and make it YOUR playlist. It will certainly make your next run or walk a bit more fun and enjoyable.
