Time goes by so fast, people go in and out of our life, moments pass us by and opportunities are born and die. In this digital age, precious moments are uploaded more on Instagram than actually being in the moment. Memories should be captured by being conscious not with a camera. Now, more than ever, time is luxury.
The older I get, the more I value time spent with my loved ones. Being present and spending time to nurture my family and connect with friends are more important than fulfilling my Instagram desires, haha! For as much as I want to share my experiences online all the time, I also love being attuned to people and my surroundings. By doing so, I’m liking myself more and not caring about the “Likes” of my social media posts. Not being attached to my phone is freedom and freedom is time.
Like what I wrote before, I’m all about rituals. I give myself a break from being a mother, a friend, a wife and a businesswoman to recharge and be inspired. “Me” time is key.
Wellness Weekend Escape
I was invited last summer to Philip Stein’s Wellness Weekend Escape at The Farm in San Benito and met Philip Stein co-founder and president Will Stein. During the event, he said, “The attitude of gratitude leads to a great mood, which leads to a great day, which leads to a great week, a great month, a great year, and ultimately a great life.” His words resonated with me because I always believed that happiness happens when one is grateful. Time is quality and not quantity.
New Collection
Philip Stein’s new Legacy Collection, which includes the Lea Salonga Legacy Limited Edition watch. During the grand launch in Makati Shangri-la, Philip Stein CEO and co-founder Will Stein said: “We are launching tonight, the newest collection form Philip Stein, which perfectly matches the life and style of Lea, as we share similar values—that of passion, excellence, and purpose.”
Lea Salonga is the epitome of elegance and passion. I had the opportunity of styling her for an advertising campaign in the past and working with her was pure joy as she is humble, professional and easy to work with. Philip Stein couldn’t have partnered with the perfect endorser for their brand.
Speaking of legacy, the moments I spend time with my family and taking time to address my well-being are the legacy I hope to leave my children.
Making time to meals and memories with the family
Spending time playing with my 5-year old son
Time to relax
Good vibes all the time
Time to make every moment count and live a life worthy of legacy.
The Legacy Collection, along with the limited edition pieces, will be distributed exclusively first in the Philippines through Philip Stein boutiques; Lucerne, Chronos and Wristpod stores; and Landmark, SM, and Robinsons department stores.
