Juice Tip of the Week: Alfalfa Sprouts — Green Goodness for Energy, Detox & Vitality

I am always digging deeper into nature's healing cabinet—alfalfa sprouts are one of my favorite unsung heroes. Once revered by early Arabians as "the father of all foods," this vibrant green has earned its title. I usually add alfalfa sprouts to my salad or sandwich and the powder to my juices and smoothies.

What Makes Alfalfa Sprout a Supergreen?

An herbal superfood to boost stamina, energy, and endurance. A tonic for rheumatoid arthritis and for strengthening connective tissue. Alfalfa is packed with a full spectrum of plant-based nutrients:

The Mood Enhancer Mocktail Smoothie made with UnstressMe tastes like a creamy vanilla milkshake with a hint of banana made with our plant-based superfood blend, Unstress Me. It’s a calming, feel-good smoothie crafted to help you destress and reconnect with your natural self. Taste good. Feel good.  SoGo Pure — Nourish what’s within.

Unstress Me and the Chocolate Dream Smoothie
In this blog post, Sonia shares the story behind her creation of the Chocolate Dream smoothie—a rich, nourishing treat designed to provide energy and relaxation. She reveals how adding Unstress Me, a superfood adaptogenic enhancer, to the smoothie helps manage stress naturally with its powerful adaptogenic herbs and mushrooms. Sonia dives into the benefits of key ingredients like Ashwagandha, Reishi, and Rhodiola, which support the body’s response to stress, boost immunity, and promote mental clarity. She also shares the delicious recipe for the Chocolate Dream Smoothie.

When we first opened SpaJuiceBar, my focus was strictly on providing juices, smoothies, and a few acai bowls. The people I surrounded myself with had great ideas, and one lady in particular, Alicia, had a brilliant notion to create raw oatmeal. Alicia was very much into the plant-based lifestyle, and I found her to be truly fascinating because she knew what I did not know about plant-based food. My forte at the time of opening was juice. I am a juicer; I dream of juice, and my focus was only on juice in the beginning. So, Alicia created what turned out to be one of the most sought-after oatmeals. Our raw oatmeal was highly favored at SpaJuiceBar. Now, this oatmeal is not cooked strictly raw but full of flavor and fortifying nutrients. Since the closing of the juice bar on Las Olas, I have received many requests to share the recipe.

A simple recipe:

Muddle a few blueberries and basil leaves together. 

Add ice and pour SpaJuiceBar Blu Lemonade and stir.

Enjoy!!

We should be careful of the thoughts we hold on to. 

Our thoughts and words can shape our reality. 
Be careful of the thoughts you hold on to.  
The way we think influences our emotions and behaviors.
They begin to weave into the fabric of our being.  
When we repeatedly speak those thoughts, we create them, and they become our reality.  
When we dwell on specific thoughts or repeat them to ourselves, they can become internalized and influence our actions, perceptions, and interactions with the world.
Positive thinking and affirmations can lead to a more positive mindset.
Positive thinking, ultimately, leads to better outcomes in life. 

Peace!

Hi, Beautiful People!

We've missed you! First things first, SpaJuiceBar is excited to announce that we are now open online! 🌐✨ Also, we have a new contact number: 954-205-5575. We’re really sorry if our move seemed sudden. If we dropped the ball on keeping you in the loop, please accept our heartfelt apologies. 

 Reflecting on the incredible 10 years we spent at our Las Olas location brings so much joy. Each day was filled with love, laughter, and lots of juice! Did you know my journey into juicing began through my personal battle with cancer? It was during that challenging time that I discovered the powerful healing properties of fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Starting SpaJuiceBar was my way of sharing this discovery and learning alongside you. We’ve all grown so much, haven’t we?

Empowerment comes from within. It’s the force that propels you toward your dreams and desires. As Swami Rama, the great yogi and founder of the Himalayan Institute of Yoga Science and Philosophy, said, “Human beings have forgotten that all things happen deep within before they appear on the physical and mental levels. We must understand our inner skills and...use them as much as possible in order to ensure perfect health.”

Ginger is a superfood with incredible health benefits thanks to its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties. It supports digestive health, relieves pain, improves circulation, and boosts immunity, making it a natural remedy for a wide range of concerns, from nausea and joint pain to cold and flu symptoms. Incorporate ginger juice into your daily routine.  

Do you need energy? Drink a glass of carrot juice to give your body energy and vitality while simultaneously cleansing your liver. What's so wonderful about carrots is their normalizing effect on the body. Dry skin, dermatitis, and skin blemishes are indicators of a deficiency within the body of the rich, vital nutrients you will find in good-quality carrots.
