Morning Yoga at Meili Beach Resort: A Serene Start to My Weekend in Alcoy, Cebu

Last weekend, I had the most refreshing and soul-soothing morning yoga session at the stunning white sand beach of Meili Beach Resort in Alcoy, Cebu. The calming waves, soft sea breeze, and warm golden sunrise made it an unforgettable experience. Practicing yoga by the ocean brings a different kind of energy—one that makes you feel grounded yet free at the same time.

Embracing the Morning Flow

Waking up early to catch the sunrise, I rolled out my yoga mat right on the soft, powdery sand. The rhythmic sound of the waves became my natural meditation guide as I moved through my flow—starting with gentle stretches, deep breathing, and gradually transitioning into sun salutations. The fresh sea air made every inhale feel rejuvenating, filling my lungs with positivity and peace.

Yoga and Swimwear: The Perfect Pair

For this yoga session, I wore my Osprey swimwear, which provided the perfect balance of comfort, flexibility, and support. I love how it allows me to transition effortlessly from yoga to swimming without needing a wardrobe change. Since the resort’s beachfront is so inviting, I took a quick dip in the ocean right after my practice—it was the perfect reward after a calming yet energizing session.

My Next Swimwear Pick

I’m already looking forward to my next yoga session by the beach, and I’ve been eyeing some new stylish yet functional swimwear to enhance my experience. If you’re also looking for comfortable and yoga-friendly swimwear, check out this collection on Shopee: Click here to shop my top picks!

Why You Should Try Beach Yoga

If you’ve never tried practicing yoga by the ocean, I highly recommend it. Here’s why:

  • Natural Elements Enhance Relaxation – The sound of the waves acts as a natural white noise, helping you enter a deeper state of meditation.
  • Soft Sand is Gentle on Joints – Unlike hard studio floors, the sand supports your body, making it easier on your knees and wrists.
  • Vitamin D Boost – Practicing outdoors allows you to soak up the morning sun’s natural Vitamin D, which is essential for overall well-being.
  • Seamless Transition to Swimming – Nothing beats the feeling of cooling off in the ocean right after an invigorating yoga session.

Plan Your Yoga Retreat in Alcoy

If you’re looking for a peaceful escape, Meili Beach Resort in Alcoy is the perfect destination. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced yogi, this tranquil setting will make your practice even more rewarding. Bring your favorite yoga-friendly swimwear, embrace the beauty of nature, and let the waves guide you into a state of bliss.

36K Bike on Ninoy Aquino Day


Monday for everyone is busiest day of the week. But this Monday is unusual 'coz it's a holiday. Ninoy Aquino Day,  a non-working holiday here in Pinas. We all love holidays. Even if it isn't a holiday,  we sometimes declare the day as holiday by not to be around at work place or any where you belong. 😂

Holiday is time for us to wander, stay at home, or do some outdoor exercises. This day we go on biking from our home to somewhere in the South Road Properties of Cebu. My hubby and I landed just in front of SM Seaside area.  It took an hour and a half to hit the spot around 6:20 am and paused for while there took some pictures and then went back using the same route. Quite amusing but so hot as we headed home. Using Google Map coz Runkeeper app sucked by that time I'm gonna used it to measure the distance from starting point to U-turn point and that is approximately 18 kilometers so a total of 36 kms in all.

Camiguin Summer Run

JustMom-Camiguin-Morning-Run

Oh, how I love to run! Running makes free me from stress, happy and feeling full after. My week is not complete without running even once. Though how hectic my schedule over the entire week, I tried to allocate 30 minutes to an hour to run. During school days, I run @ MIMG after or before sending my bunch of kids to school. To break the normal route, sometimes I run around the entire block following the road that surrounds our place. One complete turn is more or less 5 kilometers so running it twice makes a 10K run according to Runkeeper (running app). Since this week, we're out of town and we're here in this beautiful Island Born of Fire, Camiguin Island. It's our 4th day after Mantigue Island visitation. So I run with my hubby the Camiguin neighborhood while the kids were still sleeping. It's quite exciting because the path was new! We started to run at the Aranas Street Mambajao going to Mount Hibok-Hibok Observatory and then going back to Aranas Street Mambajao. Honestly, it's an uphill run and quite exhausting compared to my ordinary run along flat roads. One thing, many dogs along the road.....that's my major fear while running! I'm kinda dog phobic mom. =) So I immediately took stones, one stone at the left and other stone at the right. So funny to think but it's my first line of defense when dog attacks aside from running away so quick. There were few dogs really attempted to attack us. Ruining our run....hehehe. Thanks to stones! The path going to Mount Hibok-Hibok Observatory is well paved and has many curvatures as we approached the place. I really like the natural greenery scenes I've seen along the road, the big old trees, Lanzones trees, tweets of birds, the overlooking White Island, and most of all the road is full of shades due to big foliage of trees along the road. I found Villa Paraiso Resort Apartelle along the road so travelers who would like to stay and run uphill around Camiguin Island. I think that's a suitable place to stay. So running at almost 7 o' clock in the morning is still a good time to run without getting sunburn. Ye-hey! That's all I've remembered because my phone was dead and forgot to charge the night before the run. Taking photos or videos was not possible. That's running without a gadget. Totally free! Anyways, thanks to Google Earth that I've seen and drawn the path. We run-jog-walk more or less 10 kilometers today by going back and forth the path. Happy & Thirsty! =) Tubig pa more...
