3 Easy Ways to Escape WFH Stress Without Leaving Your House

In just a few weeks, another year stuck at home will come to an end. It was a full year of constant adapting to new protocols and new ways of working. Ironically, being closer to home didn’t make the stress of day-to-day tasks any less heavy. Some of us have joined meetings while washing dishes, skipped lunch to work on a deadline, and even woke up just in time to attend an early morning call. The stress we experience has increased because of more back-to-back meetings and higher demand for multi-tasking. 

To make sure we don’t burnout, we need to stop for much-needed breaks. You might not notice it but even your skin needs detoxing too. The constant change in weather and the temperature inside can be causing your skin stress.

Gigi’s “Sakalam” turns Pinoy slang to a piercing break-up anthem

ABS-CBN’s newest pop rock diva launches her debut single

Breakthrough star Gigi de Lana gives an excruciating new meaning to the popular Pinoy slang “Sakalam,” which serves as the title of her debut single released under Star Music.

“Sakalam” is a power rock ballad that lyrically tackles a person’s struggle to let go of a broken relationship despite the detachment of her partner. The term is an inverse of the Tagalog word “malakas,” adding more emphasis to the emotional grief caused by the separation as depicted in the song.

“Habang kinakanta ko 'yung ‘Sakalam,’ nasasaktan ako. Nilalagay ko 'yung sarili ko sa song kasi gusto kong kantahin na punong-puno ng soul. Sobrang nakaka-relate kasi sa mga pinagdaanan ko rin sa buhay,” shared Gigi.  

She also expressed an encouraging message to listeners who are experiencing heartbreak. She said, “Even though ‘sakalam’ talaga siya, pansamantala lang ‘yang nararamdaman mo. Itong song na ito, hindi lang tungkol sa heartbreak. May binibigay din itong positive vibes.”

Cebu Infrastructures to Drive Value Appreciation in BRIA Homes

Aside from well-designed house-and-lot units,
BRIA Homes Danao offers sports and recreational
facilities, 24-hour security and eco-friendly spaces. 

The Philippines, being an achipelago, is a group of strikingly beautiful islands, each with a distinct charm as a travel destination and as a place to lay down roots. In the past, the long trips to and around these isles were surely part of their allure; the same factors, however, also served as costly deterrents to their growth and progress. That is, until the current administration pushed its massive Build, Build, Build program, part of which has been primed to benefit the province of Cebu.

With ongoing government infrastructure projects set for completion in the forthcoming months, Cebu is now considered by property developers as a viable location for their projects. Among the first to maximize this positive trend, BRIA Homes has rolled out BRIA Homes Danao and BRIA Condo Mactan, two properties in its portfolio that have optimum potential for future value appreciation.

PRSP Invites Students on a Journey to PR for Good in First-Ever Virtual PR Con

It’s easy to get overwhelmed with the massive amounts of information available to us. From newspapers and television, to search engines and social media, to new and emerging platforms, we can access any type of information we want – but just how do we discern which information is useful and which is irrelevant or downright harmful? Has technology made things easier or more complicated? How do we use new media responsibly?

With our continued reliance on communication and digital platforms heightened by the pandemic, these questions are more relevant now more than ever. To address these issues and to help us look at media and communication in a more hopeful and progressive light, the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP) is holding the Students’ PR Con this November 2021.
