The philosophy of residential wellness

-

MANILA, Philippines - The ancients have long recognized that wellness goes beyond just having a healthy body – the Greeks say “mens sana in corpore sana”; while the Chinese philosopher Lao Tze stresses the importance of the soul. However, with the advent of scientific medicine, these beliefs have been forgotten – until recently.

Due to today’s busy lifestyle, this integrated approach rooted in the wisdom of old is rarely practiced. “People find it difficult to relax, get medical attention, exercise or examine the balance between their work and personal life,” shares Anton Sanchez, project development manager of Alveo Land. “And when they do find the time, they have to decide what area needs the most attention and everything else has to wait.”

The Red Oak at Two Serendra offers a lyrical balance of community amenities where residents can easily pursue activities that promote physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.“ We live at a time where passing your corporate check-up with flying colors is no guarantee that you won’t have a heart attack the next day,” quips Sanchez. “It’s not anymore just about the body – the mind and the spirit have to be focused as well.”

For the spirit, amenities like its reflection ponds and prayer room are ideal for self-renewal. Meanwhile, its sunken decks, massage pavilions and leisure pools offer pleasant opportunities to rejuvenate the tired body. There is also a music and theatre room where residents can sit back and enjoy a film or two.
