According to Christina Rogers, RRT, a respiratory therapist in the Department of Respiratory Therapy ,“don’t underestimate the practice of simple deep breathing. Most people only use a small part of their lung capacity. By increasing the length of your inhalations and exhalations, you can increase your lung capacity and strengthen your breathing, which improves the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide, ultimately improving lung capacity.” Despite everything that is happening this year, life still has little gifts we can enjoy everyday; like simply pausing for a while and taking a deep breath.  

The Malagos Garden Resort offers a quiet place to be one with nature. It is also the best place to enjoy fresh air and relax. Regardless of the time of the year, we should always take advantage of the outdoors. Here are some reasons why: 

Strolling by nature helps you have more energy and mental focus. The more fresh air you inhale, the oxygen levels in your brains rise up. Because of this, you will feel more energized and improve your ability to memorize and remember.  A study at the Human cognitive Neuroscience Unit in Northumbria found that subjects given oxygen versus regular air performed up to 20% better on a memory test. What better way to spend a quick getaway in the midst of all this chaos than being in a peaceful place surrounded by trees and wildlife you can interact with? With many floras and faunas at the Malagos Garden Resort, it will not only be healthy and rewarding, you are in for a lot of learning too. 

Fresh air can help in digestion. The Malagos Garden Resort’s buffet has been the talk of many for the past years. From our proudly Filipino menu all the way to innovative ones, you have been supporting us all the way. After a hearty meal, fresh air helps you process sustenance more viably.  That is the reason it’s incredible to go for a little stroll outside after you eat. From all the medical advantages of fresh air, this one is extremely significant in the event that you are attempting to get in shape.

Clean, fresh air helps you improve your blood pressure and heart rate. According to Long Island University, “every cell in your body needs oxygen to function. When there isn’t enough to go around, your heart needs to work harder to make sure that what’s available gets to where it needs to go. Fresh air has plenty of oxygen, so a few deep breaths helps to bring in more of this vital gas to your body. This means your heart can relax, since it takes less effort to deliver what your body needs. End result? Your heart rate slows down, and your blood pressure lowers.” Stay away from the hustle of the City and soak in the calmness of nature. With this, you’ll get better health results in no time. Worried about the glare of the sun? No worries. The shade by each tree in Malagos Garden Resort will keep you safely tucked in the shadows.
