The Philippine Statistics Authority reported last March that eight million Filipinos are overworked. They work well beyond the required 48 hours per week—equivalent to one additional day, which inhibits quality time with family, adequate sleep, and general well-being. These statistics suggest that Filipinos should take a step back and strive to strike a balance between their professional and personal lives.
The Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) is
pleased to present innovative products that have been developed to help achieve
a better work-life balance. Through its Taiwan Excellence campaign, TAITRA
introduces wonderful products that boost quality of life.
Every day is an opportunity to get active
Our daily commute can consume so much of our time. Consider
switching up your mode of transportation.
Check out Tern’s Verge X10, a portable bike that
disassembles in just 10 seconds. Its wheels are ultra-light, giving city riders
a great biking experience. If you’re traveling long distances, try Heartway’s
lightweight and compact S21 EasyMove Scooter. It can travel as fast as 4 miles
per hour, and is easily transportable through its remote-controlled folding
feature. It comes with a travel case so you can take it with you on your next
trips.
Learn something new
Weekends are a good time to reward yourself for the week’s
accomplishments and to reenergize for what’s ahead. However, this doesn’t mean
cozying yourself up at home to sleep, reading or binge-watching your favorite
TV shows. Discover new, relaxing, and revitalizing hobbies to enjoy on your
days off.
Test your athletic abilities and push yourself physically
by joining a triathlon. And make sure you have essential gear like the
Revolution Tri-Max Fabric from AROPEC Sports’ Triathlon Compression Lycra Suit.
It’s made with a special super-stretch fiber that supports muscles and keeps
you comfortable during and after cycling to optimize performance.
