We get asked this a lot: what does an actual wellness Sunday look like for us? Not the curated-for-content version. The real one. The one where we check our readiness score before we check our texts and call it self-awareness.
So we mapped it out. Every product, every spot, every ritual we rotate through on a Sunday in Miami. Some of these are daily habits, others are specifically reserved for the one day we refuse to answer emails. Here's the full rundown.
Morning, But Intentional
Sunlight first. No phone, no doomscrolling, just actual photons hitting actual retinas. Then we check the Oura Ring like it's our horoscope. Today's mood? Based entirely on our readiness score. An 85 means we're athletes today. A 72 means we're "listening to our bodies" (lying down).
Coffee, Upgraded
We ease into it at Basquet with a coffee that should probably be illegal. The formula: coffee + Pikora instant bone broth + Elmhurst Pistachio Barista milk. It sounds chaotic. It tastes like a pistachio latte with a protein secret. 10g of protein before you've even left the house.
Good to know
What is the best Sunday wellness routine in Miami?
A great Sunday wellness routine in Miami includes morning sunlight, a workout at studios like War Fit or 727 Pilates in Little River, matcha at Bonsai Coffee Truck in Miami Shores, clean brunch at NU Real Food in Midtown, soft serve at Meli or Peel, and a recovery evening with LED therapy and compression boots.
Where are the best healthy food spots in Miami Shores?
Miami Shores has several standout wellness spots: Bonsai Coffee Truck for specialty coffee and matcha, Meli Frozen Yogurt for sugar-free Greek frozen yogurt, and Peel Soft Serve for vegan banana-based soft serve. All three are within a few blocks of each other on NE 96th-98th Street.
We Move
Upper East Side
Best for A full-body boxing circuit
War Fit for a full-body boxing circuit that makes you feel like you could fight someone (you can't, but the energy is there).
Little River
Best for Pilates in Little River
727 Pilates Studio in Little River for infrared-heated reformer classes that are equal parts design-forward and genuinely hard.
Powered by Gorgie + creatine. We're athletes today, remember.
Coffee and Brunch
Miami Shores
Best for A post-workout coffee and matcha
Matcha + coffee at Bonsai Coffee Truck in Miami Shores. Because choosing one felt restrictive. Bonsai is a specialty truck run by a Brazilian-Japanese and Argentinian duo who roast locally and make their own syrups from natural ingredients. The matcha is smooth, the coffee is dialed, and the line moves fast enough that you don't lose your post-workout glow.
Midtown
Best for Brunch in Midtown
Clean, as always. No notes. NU Real Food in Midtown is the kind of place that makes you forget "healthy" used to mean sad. No seed oils, no fryers, no microwaves. Just carrot waffles, activated charcoal flatbreads, and superfood smoothies that actually taste like something you'd order twice. This is our personality now.
A Small Treat
Miami Shores
Best for Greek frozen yogurt
Meli does sugar-free Greek frozen yogurt sweetened with allulose — rich, creamy, zero guilt, toppings like baklava flakes and pavlova crumble.
Miami Shores
Best for Vegan soft serve
Peel does vegan soft serve made from rescued overripe bananas and coconut milk — seasonal flavors rotate, the matcha is always good, and they've kept 13 tons of bananas out of landfills. Both are in Miami Shores. Both are under $10. Both are non-negotiable.
The Everything Shower
The Sunday shower is not a regular shower. It's a full protocol. Salt & Stone body wash (the bergamot + hinoki is unreal), the Billie razor (no pink tax, five blades, aloe strip), URO probiotic intimate wash (pH-balanced, eucalyptus-lavender, no questions asked), and sealed with OSEA Undaria Algae Body Oil. Reborn. Rebranded. Ready for nothing.
Night Routine: Still Optimizing
Fully horizontal. Red light mask by Project E Beauty on the face. Normatec compression boots on the legs. We look ridiculous. We also look 25. The LED mask runs red and infrared wavelengths for skin rejuvenation while the Normatec boots pulse air compression to flush lactic acid from the day's workout. It's the most productive we've been while doing absolutely nothing.
The Sleep Stack
Sleepy hot chocolate. Gummies. Relaxing drops. A mist that smells like a spa that charges $400 an hour. And Blok, the app that kicks us out of every app we shouldn't be on past 9pm. The whole stack is engineered to get us asleep by 10. Some nights it works. Other nights we're staring at the ceiling thinking about hydration. Either way, we tried. And that readiness score tomorrow? It'll know.
The Point
Do we do all of this every week? No. Will we try again next Sunday? Absolutely. The ideal Sunday isn't about perfection, it's about building a version of the day that makes Monday feel less aggressive. Every spot, product, and ritual on this list is something we've actually used, visited, and come back to. Nothing sponsored, nothing theoretical. Just a really good Sunday in Miami.
