Here we are- officially one week into 2012.  Spill it! How many of you have already abandoned your New Year’s resolution? I confess, I ate like sh!t yesterday but hey, today’s a new day!

 

I checked out Flywheel™ in Millburn, NJ recently because it’s rumored to be the best indoor cycling and barre experience around (and I figured if I can’t get the eating thing down right this early in the game, I may as well get the exercise thing down). Flywheel™ and barre are truly amazing workouts. And, since I now have a great fondness and relationship with Flywheel™, I would like to personally invite any/all members in the tri-state area from MyWorkButterfly.com to take a FREE ride and FREE barre class in the Millburn, NJ location!

 

Get started by signing up for your personalized account here. Once you have your user name, please email it to Danielle at mailto:ddevine@flywheelsports.com and let her know you would like to activate your membership.  One complimentary ride and one complimentary barre class will be added to your account - you will receive an email back confirming you are all set and that you can book anytime you like! 

 

Once you create your personal account you will be able to check your personal performance data on a regular basis. Did I mention that Flywheel™ offers great amenities like FREE water, FREE towels, FREE shoe rentals and motivational instructors too?!!

 

Hope to see you there- try the 8.30 am before work or 7.30 am on Saturday!

 

Forever resolving,

Bradi

Green Drinks 2 Go


Green Drinks have become a major super food in a time when we have strayed far from whole, organic foods over to the land of pesticides and processed foods. As the owner of Green Drinks 2 Go, I am thrilled to introduce it to New Jersey.

If you have felt a lack of energy, get colds a lot, or are tied in to foods that drain you and cause continued weight gain or just make you feel blah, then green drinks are sure to have a positive impact on how you are feeling! I am not talking about a miracle drug or something from the rain forest. I am talking about fresh, organic leafy greens and a small amount of antioxidant, fiber packed fruit blended into delicious drinks and included into your daily diet! By blending the greens, the nutrients are liquefied into a chlorophyll- rich, vitamin-intense, toxin- cleansing drink. It is basically taking 3 salads and putting them in the blender!

In a society where the top names in holistic health advocate eating a diet that is 50% raw, green drinks reign supreme. Greens in their raw form can be bitter and tough. When blended with fruit (cue the music) they are suddenly thirst quenching, delicious low calorie treats or meals!

I personally never toyed much with kale, never gave a second glance to chard. Sadly, these amazing cancer fighters never entered my house! My greens were the normal lettuces, spinach and broccoli. When I discovered green drinks, the amazing results that I felt impelled me to want to know more. I then worked with a raw food coach and have since gone back to school where I am currently getting my Natural Health Professional Certification. What I have learned and continue to learn about incorporating beautiful vibrant greens into one’s diet is that something so simple as food in its original form holds much power to heal.

In my quest for my clients to feel strong and vital, I began to make green drinks for them. Without advertising, simply some glowing skin, renewed energy, heightened immunities, word had gotten around town and Green Drinks 2 Go was born.

I look forward to coming to speak about green drinks and share information with all of you.

Getting healthy with Blending and green smoothies. By Mareya.. Eat Cleaner.com
Growing up in a warm country, a prerequisite for a blistering hot day – about 10 months out of the year –was to pay a visit to the juice bar around the corner from our flat. The proprietor would stack the counters up with colorful pyramids of oranges, beets, mangoes, guavas and pomegranates, depending on what was in season. Vases filled with rods of sugar cane and long carrots anchored the artful arrangements to create an edible landscape.

Once the juicers started to whirl, the sweet scent of freshness would dance through the steamy streets, luring customers in like a pied piper. He’d create his own signature fruit and veggie ‘cocktails’, mixing beet with orange, carrot and mango, a soulful blend of sweet and savory. At a time when soda made it to our side of the globe, juicing was just pure refreshment.

Now we know that fresh juice provides us with invaluable nutrition in a glass. Yet, most of the juice you purchase at the store has been heat pasteurized, which destroys bacteria along with many of the beneficial nutrients.

If you make it at home, you’ll not only preserve a bevy of vitamins and minerals, essential fatty acids and good carbohydrates, you’ll also ensure its safety of the fruit and vegetables when you buy and wash them yourself. Added bonus…you get the best of the fruit, including fiber and concentrated nutrients, while reaping the benefits of quick-release energy in a flash – a great pick-me-up before and after your yoga workout.

Strive for two 8-oz glasses each day and let your inner gourmet shine with countless combinations. Follow our chef’s tip and drink seasonal fruit and vegetable combinations to take advantage of the freshest produce at your local farmer’s market.

Apple, beet and celery with a dash of ginger are the perfect cool weather warmer while watermelon and carrot with a splash of mint makes a sweet, refreshing chiller on a hot day.

You’ll get your money’s worth out of a good quality juicer, or you can put your blender to work on easy-to-mix matchups, including fresh berries, citrus fruit, melons, tomatoes, cucumber, spinach and herbs. If you’re diabetic or watching your sugar intake, increasing the vegetable content is a great option. You can also add ice or water to dilute it further. The bottom line…getting your 5-9 servings of fruit and vegetables a day is a cinch when you sip it. Your waistline will thank you.

Drink up & be healthy
Let your inner gourmet shine & create these delish juices at home!
The ABC Elixir. Try these juice recipes to put some spring back into your step!
