120 Minutes of Bliss At The Spa Acropolis

There is so much to be thankful for July..

for one, I had clients more than I can handle. Busy is not the word to describe it, I was exhausted! but yes, clients means more payments.. so there

And as if the blessings were not enough, I was asked to try Purity Facial Organics at The Spa as well as an hour of massage (The Spa Reflexology)! I was offered the chance just when I need it the most, talk about proper timing!

The Spa Acropolis is the nearest to my location, not walking distance but just a few minutes away (2-5 with light traffic)., so I had my most needed me time at The Spa Acropolis.

It started with a ginger tea (after I changed into robe).. which by the way, I had 3 cups.. masarap sya! The tea explodes on my throat.. from ginger hotness then sweetness then hotness again.. ohhh

After the tea, I was led to a room for an hour of relax and recharge and heal.. hello, The Spa Reflexology. A head to- to toe healing message that combines 3 Asian techniques- Japanese Shiatsu, Thai Massage and Chinese Reflexology.

It started with a foot soak then a hot pillow was placed on my back.. ahhh can this be any better? well in fact it did.. while my feet was soaked in the warm solution, my head, shoulders, arms was being massaged. I doze off..and went to la la land.. then a tickle and it was time for my feet! I have a very low tolerance for touch on that area.. actually I have very low tolerance to touch in almost any part of my body and that’s what I like best about The Spa Reflexology, you don’t need to disrobe or you don’t even have to change into robes, you can have the massage with your clothes on.

After the feet, it was my back’s turn and a more intense massage for the shoulders.. my weak point, been aching for days and was really glad I said yes to this opportunity. And I fell asleep again.. it feels like every massage, every pressure is a lullaby..

After an hour of bliss, I was led to another room for a facial treatment. Hello, Purity Facial with Organics.

Purity Facial with Organics is a natural and eco friendly alternative facial specially for face that needs all natural and effective treatment. Purity Facial with Organics is good for any skin type, may it be normal, dry or both. And Since it is organic and does not contain any chemicals or synthetic ingredients, it is good for sensitive skin. Pregnant woman need not to worry they can have Purity Facial with Organics. The only limitation is, if you’re allergic to tea, rose or rosemary, this facial is not for you.

I was told what makes Purity Facial with Organics treatment unique:

I feel refreshed, rejuvenated, relaxed and prettier after spending 120+ minutes at The Spa Acropolis.. to say I enjoyed it, is not enough, that 120 minutes is heaven! I can get used to this!

Olympian Mom Speaks Out

I used to be a track and field player.. it was not something that I was born with.. it just came suddenly and as sudden as it came, I was off the track that fast too. I guess I was not destined to be a track and field player, maybe I was destined to be an Olympian mom, just like Momsky or Jessica Ennis’ mom:

When the time comes that my kids would need my support, sports wise or not, I can promise to them that I will be there.. well for me, it is a privilege for us moms to be there with our kids.. to be able to show them our love, support and cheer for them.

That reminds me of the time when I did not sleep for 2 days just to finish my first born’s campaign paraphernalia.. exhausted, tired and cranky.. but when my son said thank you, it was more than enough to take my tiredness and crankiness away.

Send Off Tea Party For Momsky and Popsky

Last Thursday (July 26, 2012), I attended an afternoon tea party, a send off party for Melita Barriga or Momsky as we know her.

Procter & Gamble, the Proud Sponsor of Moms, will be flying Momsky together with her husband, Popsky (Edgar Barriga) to London so she could show her love and support to Boxing representative Mark simply by cheering for him.

And since it will be the firs time for Momsky and Popsky, Mike Cabigon of the British Council gave them some insights on what London is all about. Few of the things mentioned were how to get around the city, what to wear and how rainy London can be. Words such as loo for comfort room, lift for elevator, and telly for television were mentioned so as to make it easier for Momsky and Popsky to communicate with the Londoners. They also learned more about typical English food fare like Fish and Chips and even got to experience tea, fancy little cakes and scones.

As the program ends, , P&G presented Momsky and Popsky with their passport with UK Visa, jackets, and a care package to help them during their first trip outside of the country. Finally, the British Council gave them a book of games about London and the Olympics to help while their time while on the plane.

Momsky will also be bringing the hopes of those who yearn for the first gold medal for the Philippines, as well as the faith of those who wish that her son fares well. The most important thing that Momsky is bringing to London, however, is the support that she has always provided for Mark – the love she has always had for her son, the boy that she raised to be an Olympic athlete, through her own rather Olympic feat.
