The Gift of a Healthy Start: Riovana Gift Certificates

Jan 17

Posted by ginger in Featured, Fitness Apparel, Running | No Comments

My friends and I made a pact to have a scheduled run every Tuesdays and Thursdays. It’s so cool to see a lot of people make ‘running’ resolutions this New Year. Last Sunday, my husband and I jogged at the UP Oval and there was quite an unusual number of people in the area. The whole street seemed to be covered by people.

The new year is all about new beginnings, and a good gift to give would be a gift that would signify a healthy start. You can do this by giving out Riovana Gift Certificates, since a lot of people are into running!

This is so good. There are now a lot of options offered in Ortigas if you want to join the fitness wagon. For yoga, aside from Yoga Manila, where I go to to practice Ashtanga yoga, there is this new Yoga center called Core Yoga. It is located at AIC Burgundy Empire Tower, which is right across Robinson’s Galleria.

Jan 3

Posted by ginger in Featured, Fitness Centers and Gyms, Yoga | 1 Comment

It’s January 3 and I promise that today, yes — TODAY, will be my first day of fulfilling all of my goals for 2012. One of my goals, yes, for every year actually, is to get fit. I need to be healthy. I have been building stress from work and all of my extra-curricular activities that I don’t get to exercise and have that ‘time’ for building strength and my body’s resistance. So today, I am searching for activities that I can do this year to make my body more active.

I want to have bangs. I want to have full bangs and not the layered ones, but I’m afraid that it might grow back slowly. While walking in Rockwell, I decided to stop by Tokyo Posh Hair Extensions.

Yoga Immersion and Teacher Training in Manila

Jun 12

Posted by ginger in Events, Featured, Yoga | No Comments

I mentioned in a previous post that I wanted to undergo a yoga teacher training course (ANY Yoga Teacher training course) that would deepen my understanding of my body. With this, of course, I would be challenging myself to do the poses better and with the right form.

I’m glad to say that I have been regularly attending my yoga classes in Yoga Manila and I have been injecting some Plana Forma and running sessions, too. I know that I have strengthened my body, and I would want to challenge my body more and deepen my yoga practice. I was glad that I got a message from my friend, Tenten, informing me of a Yoga Immersion and Teacher Training by Yoga Circle.

Seattle’s Best Skinny Vanilla

May 4

Posted by ginger in Featured, Food and Nutrition | No Comments

It was a hot day. It was like any other summer day in the Philippines. This was the day that I met my new favorite drink. We were in Megamall Building B. We had a few stuff to buy at the SM Department, and of course after shopping, I wanted to get coffee. We went to Seattle’s Best at the ground floor of SM Megamall, fronting Julia Vargas. I went to the counter and I saw that they were offering a new drink called the Seattle’s Best Skinny Vanilla.
