It is that time of the year again: cough and colds season. With hot, humid spells alternating with cold, rainy days, you, your loved ones, and practically everyone are at risk of acquiring respiratory illnesses. The most common of these diseases are cough and the common cold, both of which afflict most Filipinos every year.

The increased risk of catching cough, the common cold, and other respiratory illnesses are a few of the reasons you need to take even greater care of your health, especially your nose, mouth, throat, lungs, and airways – or respiratory tract, in short. When this usual pair (Cough + Cold) strike, Ambroxyl, and Salinase, respectively, maybe your right remedies to ease the symptoms.

Ambroxyl (Ambroxol Hydrochloride) helps soften and reduce phlegm, thus, eases breathing by lessened coughing and unblocked airways.

The economy and the way we live have been changed since the pandemic. All of us are affected and that is the reality.

The impact of Covid-19 has slammed businesses and different industries instantly in just a short period of time, despite the efforts made in making the economy move forward, there are still businesses and establishments that feel its continuous effects just like in the hospitality industry. 

These affected businesses have doubled their efforts to develop and adapt to the new normal by following heightened safety measures and investing in technological advancement for the protection of all guests and employees, just like the largest and fastest-growing Filipino-owned hotel chain in the country did across all of its branches. “Here at Hotel Sogo, we are trying on things to help improve the situation in our hotels as early as March 2020 last year. From that point on, we continued to research, invest further and develop innovative ways to upgrade our safety protocols especially in cleanliness and sanitation.” Ms. Sue Geminiano, Hotel Sogo Corporate Marketing Manager said. 

Aside from the enhanced new normal protocols such as no contact fixtures and thermal scans, some remarkable changes and innovations that the Hotel Sogo management applied across its branches such as, UVC disinfection in rooms, lobbies, and air-conditioning units, increased ventilation, microbial testing (method to indicate the presence and amount of microorganisms), Covid sniffer dogs, reduced touchpoints, and application of anti-microbial coatings infrequently touched surfaces. 

Through Hotel Sogo’s 11 So Safe Innovations, the safety and wellness of guests, as well as its employees, are set first. 

“This ongoing pandemic has helped us to take further steps in giving importance to safety. The innovations that I speak of are the development and improvement of amenities that revolve around the 4 major ways to prevent the spread of the virus and protect our guests like reduction of touchpoints, improve air quality, disinfection and testing. It is important to test all these protocols to make sure that all these innovations are really effective to keep our guests safe; we want our guests to feel safe and secured whenever they stay at Hotel Sogo. We will continue to protect our guests and develop more upgraded protocols even after the pandemic,” Ms. Geminiano added. 

More than just a hotel Aside from the hotel innovations that have been implemented, Hotel Sogo is also ramping up its effort in helping fellow countrymen through its Corporate Social Responsibility program, Sogo Cares. Hotel Sogo is helping indigent communities who are in need of basic necessities, such as food, medicines, and water. 

“Recently, we donated food packs with linens and towels to the fire victims at Manila. We also donated essential needs such as bottled water, linens, pillows, surgical masks, pillowcases, and mattresses to the Philippine General Hospital with the help of AFP and we also gave assistance in different community pantries in Bulacan and Quezon City. Our team will definitely help those who are in need in these trying times. Even at this time of GCQ, Hotel Sogo is still accepting front liners, essential, repatriated OFW, seafarers, and economic workers across all Hotel Sogo branches. We are also accommodating those who prefer long-term stay for their work purposes,” stated Ms. Geminiano.

When you become a parent, budgeting is harder than when you are single. But of course, on a case-to-case basis, we have different lifestyles and different reasons for budgeting. In my experience, unexpected purchases are the things that I and my husband must avoid such as toys for the kids. Too many toys are not necessary we know that. As my kids grow, I learned a lot about budgeting our finances. In this post, I will be sharing some budgeting tips. Whether you're a parent or not, maybe you can get helpful tips in this article that I will be sharing.

In buying things, it is best to know when you should need to buy that particular thing. Look out for promotions and also start coupling, Oh love using coupons to save! Also, I learned to buy second-hand toys. Yes, because why not, I just sanitized and clean it thoroughly. Save me a lot. In buying gifts for someone or a thing for yourself, always check the specs and not just the brand. Understand and take time to read real previous from real buyers to know if that thing is worth it to buy.

When I became a mom, everything becomes expensive for me because I really try to save most of the time. I even tried cut-costing in my clothing, yes we can do that, as long as it's comfortable to wear then you are good with that clothes. Instead of buying take-out food, I cook our food, and by doing that I can also save some money. 

We don't want an additional debt, as much as possible we want to get out of debt. Know your needs and wants is one of the first steps and probably a big step because most of the time we actually spend more on what we want. Manage the incoming money, don't compare the earnings of other people to yours.Track your spending, things to pay. Review and organized receipts, DebtConsolidation.com is helping people to understand and pay their debt. It is an online resource and tool that help managing finances and debts.

If you are making and following daily budgeting, stick to it and focus prioritized what needs to be prioritized. Don't overspend, this is about your hard-earned money. Think as it is wise in handling your money, more on discipline.

Sometimes, we need to make a big purchase. Things that we really need, in this case for example buying properties you need to think many times before putting up your money in that particular property. Ask for advice, professional advice. But, if you are still paying, things can wait. Purchase when you are ready financially.

Always save for the future, if you feel there are things that are unnecessary strip that away. Tiny luxuries, when adds up make a huge impact on your budgeting. Try to save as much as you can, you never know the emergencies, a lot of advantages when you have savings in your account.

Lastly, keep your job and work hard while saving and paying on time everything will go on smoothly.
