Let's Welcome Summer with Whipped!

Tan lines, shades, bikinis, slippers -- gaaah! I now feel Summer! I don't care if it's so hot outside. There's always fun anything under the sun and this is the only season where we can show off those toned buddies and healthier self. You know, it pushes us hard to get back in shape when we feel like it's amost summer! Right?

We tend to choose clothes fit for the weather. If you'll wear layers of clothing outside, you'll be dripping in sweat. Remember, the weather becomes insanely hot starting the month of April. So what's the solution? We lessen our clothing and avoiding those outfits in layers. Choose dresses or breathable clothes that are breezy and comfortable so won't end up sweating and feeling uncomfortable.

To top it all off, go to Whipped Salon and let them remove your unwanted hairs! Pull off your trendiest summer outfit and show them your smooth hairless skin. Work it, girl!

Feel Good in 5 at Ashram Yoga

I can honestly admit I don't have a perf figure. I don't eat a lot yet I'm not the skinny type of girl. I need to go to the gym, 1-2 months before I hit the beach during summer or holidays to avoid getting, errr fat.

My main problem area (I think) is my arms, I want them to be fit then tummy and thigh follows. But whenever I go on a diet/exercise and lose weight, my face gets thinner too - which I don't like. Ugh.

Okay, so this isn't a sponsored post since we are not required to blog about the event. I'm just so grateful I did attend "Feel Good in 5" by Grace Antonette Nicolas since I really want to experience Yoga! (I did try this before at a certain show on TV  and I was quite conscious that time and can't really focus.)

Here's a throwback from my tv guesting way back. 

The workshop/event was held at Urban Ashram Yoga at Makati

Hi Inah!

Toni Nicolas of Healthjunkie.ph

She taught us so many interesting and helpful stuff like practical ways to combat stress-eating and overeating without starving ourselves, how to integrate exercise in the workplace, and a lot more.

Rica Yabut and Toni Nicolas

We also had a full hour of refreshing Gentle Flow yoga session with Rica Yabut. Good thing, the poses were not that so hard for us beginners. I thought my flexibility will be tested, LOL. We literally enjoyed! One of our mates actually get to fall asleep at the middle of the sesh. So imagine how really relaxing it was.

Thanks also to sponsors, Urban Ashram Yoga Makati, PrAna, and Australia Harvest Oats most esp to Anotnette who took time to organize this workshop and for giving us free 5-day yoga session! I can't wait to book!

Freebies!

I'm excited to continue my Yoga journey. This was just right on time before the holidays! Imma make room for foods.

The Azurestaymanila experience!

Who doesn't love summer when summer means staycation. And when you say staycation, beach will be on top of my list! So when I saw Dimples Romana's post on facebook about renting her unit in azure residences, I didn't think twice and booked right away!

Of course, a real beach will always be better but having to experience a man-made beach in the middle of a busy city is A-mazing. And it's not sugar coated. You can really feel the beach vibe here.

Azure Urban Resort Residences was designed by Paris Hilton. It is one of the projects of Century Properties. 

Real beach sand right here!

I booked an overnight stay last April for my birthday. Since it only allows 4 guests maximum, I brought my mom, dad and sister with me.

Here's what Dimple's unit looks like. It's very clean, cozy and has instagram-worthy spots. It's complete with aircon, TV, Dining area, utensils, plates, tumblers, refrigerator, 1 queen sized bed, 1 double sized pullout sofa bed, hot and cold shower bidet aaaaaannnnd wifi! Haha.

Here's the city view from the balcony:

I hope I gave justice to the place, through these photos:

Free use of wave pool

Free use of man-made beach, kiddie water slide playground

and children's playroom (I don't have a photo, sorry)

We had super fun though swimming is allowed until 7pm only.

They also have this Yacht-like beach bar in between the wave pool and man made beach. They're open at night and serves alcoholic drinks.

You can bring foods with you but if you forgot or if you intend not to bring, they have a classy cafeteria where you can buy foods!

Mandatory mirror selfie

Hotdogs and chips for dinner

pretty couch!

I'm so happy we get to avail their introductory price. It's only until June 2016 and they easily get fully booked! But, 3,988php is still a great offer! You can book now from July 2016 onwards :)
