Hey honey! 🍯 We all know that honey is good for us, but did you know... 🐝 It improves calcium absorption and is loaded with antioxidants, which work together to improve brain function and improve memory? 🐞 Honey can boost mood by increasing the production of serotonin - which the probiotics in jun and kombucha do as well - double happiness for both corners of you mouth! It also helps give a restful sleep with the conversion of seratonin to melatonin, and the amino acids honey contains, like tryptophan. 🌻 It's anti-viral, anti-fungal, and anti-biotic (but doesn't hurt probiotics), which is only one of the reasons it helps with allergies. Honey also contains tiny homeopathic doses of the plant pollen that's bugging you. Honey holds your freaking out immune system in its lap and says, "Chill. I got you.) 🍄 SOMA jun uses only raw, full spectrum honey which includes not only the benefits of honey, but also some propolis (the medicine), pollen (the protein-rich vitamin supplement), and royal jelly (the superfood). The honey we use is organic and sustainably sourced, supporting an increase in bee populations and hive health for the good of the planet, as well as your day. . . . . . . . #rawhoney #honey #beepollen #propolis #royaljelly #serum #serumroyaljelly #beekeeping #jun #junkombucha #wildhoney #organichoney #immunity #portlandtoday #portland #portlandnw #portlandhealthy #pdx #pdxnow #pdxlife #savethebees #bkn #colonycollapsedisorder #🐝 #🍯
We have an abundance of kegerators (we call em "kombucha-rators" around here) and want to put them to use at your business! Join the office spaces, yoga and dance studios, grocers, coffee shops, retail stores, and creative work sites that are enjoying the benefits of offering authentic kombucha to their staff, guests, and customers! 🍻 We've heard from customers that they've seen less sick time, higher staff morale, and the increased effectiveness that comes from happy bellies and clearer minds. 🥃 We are offering to WAIVE our normal lease fee for the first 6 months, with at least 2 5-gallon kegs purchased every 2 weeks (only 8 pints per workday). Free delivery, setup, and CO2! We can even put you on an auto delivery schedule to make sure you have Portland's favorite booch on hand. Plus, three kegs fit in there, so you could keep three flavors flowing or use the third spot for a backup. 🍄 Shoot us an email if you're in Portland/Vancouver metro and interested in learning more: orders@SOMAkombucha.com . . . . . . . . #kombuchaontap #portland #portlandor #portlandoregon #portlandtoday #portlandnw #portlandsmallbusinesses #portlandyoga #portlandhealthy #portlandsmallbusiness #pdx #pdxnow #pdxcoffeeshops #pdxcoffee #pdxsmallbiz #pdxsmallbusiness #pdxsmallbusinesses #pdxvegan #pdxlife #pdxeats #pdxfoodie #portlandcoffeeshops #portlandcoffee

Did you know that well-made kombucha can help protect the body from toxins by giving a boost to the liver? . . The liver is one of our most vital organs, and we at Soma have a ton of respect its ability to multi-task and regenerate! The liver serves multiple crucial roles, one of which is to detoxify and cleanse our blood. Toxins in our bodies from the environment, foods, stress, et al travel through our blood so they can be snagged and flushed out by a functioning liver. Pretty cool system, but it can only do so much! . . To remove toxins from our bodies, the liver produces glucuronic acid. This acid binds with toxins and poisons in the liver and gets them out of the body through the kidneys. When a toxin is bound to an organic acid it cannot be absorbed or reabsorbed. Pretty cool. However, because the liver has so many roles, and is often overburdened by our modern lifestyles and the general toxicity of the planet, it's easily overwhelmed and damaged. When this happens, it can't make enough glucuronic acid, which leads to toxins staying in the body and getting even more toxic. Know how little kids' skin is so beautiful? They're served by a liver that is still keeping up! Kombucha is one of the best sources of glucuronic acid, which helps support the liver, detox, weight loss, and over all awesomeness. Isn't that what it's all about? . . BUT it takes several weeks for kombucha to produce glucuronic acid, so only real, slow-fermented booch is going to have the good stuff. Watch out for quick-brewed, diluted, artificially-carbonated "kombuchas" made by Pepsi, Coke, Miller-Coors, and Anheiser-Bush (who each own or are invested in well-known "kombucha" companies), and others, that are making a trendy soda, not an authentic health tonic. . . . . . . . . #liver #loveyourliver #healthygut #healthybody #immunesystem #immunity #probiotics #healthydrink #healthyskin #natural #naturalwellness #naturalmedicine #naturalskincare #healthyskin #naturalmakeup #organic #organickombucha #organicmakeup #organicskincare #kombucha #booch #boochlife #boochlover #liverlover #realkombucha #authentickombucha
See you tomorrow at the Vancouver Harvest Market, 9 to 2, where we'll be sampling our just-released new flavor: Strawberry Kombucha + 10 mg of CBD!
Feeling gratified that @lyft thought of SOMA Taproom Belmont when they heard that many of their Portland drivers - mainly women - expressed that they didn't have an after-hours safe space with healthy food and drink options. We're excited to be on the short list of Lyft Partner Network businesses starting tomorrow. Which effects very few people that are reading this! So why are we posting it? . Here's why. The seed that grew into the SOMA Taproom model in 2013 was exactly what people are looking for now - a conscious and uplifting bar-alternative that fosters community, wellness, and evolution, and it's just ducky when anyone gets it - let alone a high-integrity and iconic company. If you have something to offer that the world needs, but doesn't even know it needs it yet - share the light. If you can't find what you need, make it. The world will catch up. . . . . . . . . #collaborationovercompetition #portland #portlandsmallbusiness #consciousconsumer #consciousbusiness @uber #kombucha #kombuchaontap #kombuchataproom #pdxlove #pdx #pdxnow #upperleft #upperleftusa #portlandmom #pnw #pnwyoga #portlandyoga #booch #boocha #boochlife #boochlove #glassceiling #womanempowerment #pnwonderland #womanpower #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen #womenhelpingwomen #soberliving
"A little bit of light dispels a lot of darkness." - Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi
Seabuckthorne Jun, now on tap at the St John's Taproom. Have you heard of this little but powerful fruit? . . Originally from the Himalayas, seabuckthorne berry has been enjoyed by everyone from the Mongols to the Greeks, and is an unsurpassed source of Omegas 3, 6, 7, and 9. This might be why it's called the "beauty berry" - these essential fatty acids promote healthy skin, hair, and nails, as well as all the tissues you can't see like heart and brains! . .

Do you recharge yourself as often as you recharge your phone? . Make yourself some good food, and make it pretty. Take a romantic walk, alone. Play a sport. Float. Meditate. Enjoy some probiotic-rich deliciousness. Show yourself the same love that you give to the most special people in your life. Say no, this is my time. Recharge everyday! . . . . . . . . . . #portland #portlandor #portlandnw #pnw #pnwyoga #pnwlife #pnwliving #pnwvibes #pnwlifestyle #pnwisbest #seattle #seattlewa #seattlewashington #bayareafoodie #bayareafood #bayareayoga #sfyoga #sfyogi #boise #boiseyoga #eureka #arcata #santarosa #santamonica #santamonicayoga #petaluma #sonoma #kombucha #kombuchaontap
We can tell how good something is for us by how it makes us feel during and after (mostly after). If the snack/relationship/media/thought pattern is nutritious we feel light-hearted, peaceful, confident, relaxed, and enthusiastic. Well. If it doesn't, try a fast! Go a week without that food, or friend, or show, or website, and see how you feel then. . Sure, cookies aren't that bad, but maybe they have their hooks in you deeper than just food. Maybe you go to them when you're feeling alone, instead of unpacking that pattern. And you feel a little worse than you should from just eating cookies, you feel it in your heart. Maybe you just feel like they won. Again. Same goes for complaining. Maybe you tell yourself you're just sharing your day, but really using blame to stay in victimhood, frustration, and overwhelm. "See, I'm not responsible for my life!" And then there's the dopamine-seratonin rush with each "like". False significance. Digital love. Baring your soul to an empty room. It could even be something "healthy", used in an unhealthy way. These are all personal examples, btw. . What's one thing you do everyday that doesn't uplift you, make you feel more alive? Comment and drop it for a week! . . . . . . . . . . @tinybuddhaquotes #healthymind #yoga #meditation #meditationquotes #yogaquotes #yogi #seattlesmallbusiness #seattleyoga #seattleyogi #seattlemeditation #portland #upperleft #portlandyoga #pdxyoga #pdxyogascene #yogalosangeles #yogalosangeles #layoga #lahealth #probiotics #junkombucha #kombucha #happybelly #pdxlove #zen
The latest (and last!) batch of Genmaicha-Ginger is just so darn good! Look for it at a SOMA Taproom or elsewhere before it's gone. Radiate Cherry Chai shares the stage today - whenever people ask ironically for pumpkin spice (but I think they're maybe actually serious?) I direct them to SOMA's first flavor, by popular demand. . Did you know that SOMA started by accident? Founder Jean-Pierre used to bring his family-recipe kombucha to students after yoga classes, and they demanded he start a company! It was a different flavor every batch, and when he had to pick a first official flavor, "cherry chai" was the unanimous answer. To this day, we live the seasonal flavor lifestyle with a rotating flavor in bottles, three flavors in kegs that change every month, and of course a constant stream of seasonal flavors at the taprooms - what we get from our farmer partners (@gatheringtogetherfarm @dennisonfarm @frogsongfarmcbd @bellaorganicfarm ) and what we're learning about and playing with (medicinal mushrooms and CBD, anyone?). There's too much succulence and seasonality in this world to limit the booch!
SOMA's new kombucha fermented cookies! Come try them (along with some very special 2-year-old booch we've been saving) at the #portlandfermentationfestival tonight! Ecotrust in the Pearl, 6-9:30. If you're not snacked out on hand-made fermented treats (or @revnatscider), @laughingplanetcafe and @hotlipspizza are in the building! . . . . . #kombucha #cookingwithkombucha #kombuchataprooms #kombuchaontap #portlandor #portlandoregon #portlandnw #fermented #fermentation #probiotics #pdx #pdxlove #pdxlife #portlandtonight #portlandtoday #cbdcookies #frogsongfarm #frogsongfarmcbd
