Each table had 1 pitcher of ice tea which is an added cost for those planning to have customized buffet. Some customers opt to add a little more in order to add some more dishes.

The restaurant also had several private room, Dos Palmas is located at the second floor and can accommodate between 60 to 70 persons.

There were a lot of factors in rating this restaurant. Price wise, it is not bad for Php 289.00. They must try to improve on some of their dishes and desserts. Some are quite redundant.

Overall, I would give our lunch buffet experience a 7.30 out of 10 rating. The service crew is quite friendly and even gave a survey form after we finished eating. The survey form that we filled-up hopefully would be use by the management to improve their dishes and even service.

Simple Yoga Etiquette

What is YOGA?

Yoga had been around for thousands of years and there there is a growing movement in the country for this type of classes. It is also a spiritual, ascetic discipline, a part of which, including breath control, simple meditation, adoption of specific bodily postures and is widely practiced for health and relaxation.

Teacher Sharon -co- owner and practitioner

Vinyasa yoga has so much to do with improving circulation and alleviating congestion in the organs. Breathing is through the nose. For each movement, there is a breath. It is okey for new students to experience some difficulties controlling his/ her breath.

Teacher Sharon together with students and bloggers

A short 30-minutes Vinyasa session which is defined as an intelligent sequence of postures, but most people equate it with the ability to sweat and release tensions.

Yin Yoga session by Teacher Del Lopez Baños held a 15 minutes session which which designed to help you sit longer, more comfortably in meditation by stretching connective tissue around the joints. This is also good point for stretching one’s muscles . This is a good routine for people to improve their stamina and their ability to endure long distance running.

This can also awaken one’s dormant energy and built strong chi.

Teacher Bonn Monzon ( Reiki and Sound Bath)

Sound Bath and Aroma Session –  This is the most relaxing way to end a session. The relaxing musical presentations, which predate the birth of Jesus Christ and have been scientifically linked to reductions in stress, relaxation of mind and anxiety.

Teacher Bonn uses different kinds of metallic Tibetian bowls. Each bowls had a different tunes and are stroke on right timing.

A lot of us had almost felt asleep while mildly scent aroma gently filled the room.

a gentle massage at the head and movement of our hands.  I felt mentally and physically rested during the duration. This is different an intimate meditation and power-nap. We bloggers also needed some form of resting.
