Empowerment comes from within...A sense of empowerment propels you to the places you dream and desire. A great yogi and the founder of the Himalayan Institute of Yoga Science and Philosophy, Swami Rama, says," Human beings have forgotten that all things happen deep within before they appear on the physical and mental levels.

SpaJuiceBar's juicing tip of the week is carrots. Do you need energy? Drink a glass of carrot juice to supply your body with energy and vitality while cleansing your liver simultaneously. What is so wonderful about carrots is the normalizing effect it has on the body.

SpaJuiceBar juice tip of the week is dandelion.  I am so thankful for the herb, dandelion, one of the most valuable plants and tonics nature has to offer our body.  Who would think this powerful herb often located on the side of the road or eradicated from our flower bed could have so many nutrients to counteract hyperacidity by boosting the alkalinity within the body.

I made this salad a few days ago, refreshingly light and with just the right amount of zest for a perfect summer food pairing experience. This salad pairs beautifully with a cold glass of carrot orange juice or a honey dew melon juice infused with lemongrass, yum!! 

What makes this pairing delicious is the perfect balance of citrus flavors found in both the salad dressing and the juices. The juices facilitate a vibrancy enhancing the dining experience.  As the watermelon complements the peppery arugula with a perfectly balance of bright freshness to the spicy green, the cheese provides just the right amount of saltiness to quicken the satisfying burst of flavor provided by the watermelon.  Try the combination of juices with this salad for a perfect summer dining experience.  Recipe to try: Arugula Watermelon Salad, Food Network

Raw Juice & Food Pairing Experience!

We can only describe the recipe as refreshing and tasty. The recipe comes from one of my favorite chef’s, Chef Allen, Aventura, FL. His food is sensational. This salad is perfect for the summer, and it's simply refreshing. You can pair the Watermelon & Lychee Salad with pear and mint juice; star fruit, pear, tarragon juice or a light cool and refreshing pressed grape juice with watermelon to accent the salad beautifully. If you choose to continue the theme of the dish, a watermelon lychee juice will be finer than wine. The salad is a light fulfilling, wonderfully tasty experience to enjoy during the summer heat. Recipe to try:  Watermelon & Lychee Salad
