Actress Maxene Magalona expressed what she felt as she announced that she is now back in the Philippines after living in Bali, Indonesia for more than a year with her husband, musician Rob Mananquil.
Maxene took to her Instagram account to share the announcement. Maxene posted two photos as she showed off her stunning body figure. According to Maxene, she will use her two weeks quarantine to reflect and meditate.
“There are moments when I still can’t believe that I’m finally back in Manila after living in Bali for more than a year. I didn’t realize how much I’ve missed The Philippines until the day I flew back and felt the beautiful and comforting energy of being home. 🙏🏼 I’m so excited to see my friends and loved ones, reunite with my dog Coffee and eat all my favorite vegan Filipino food! 🤩 Two weeks of quarantine may seem like a long time but I’m actually grateful that I will have the opportunity to just be by myself before I go back out into the world! I’ve decided to use this time for self-reflection, detoxification and integration.
Coincidentally, this Sunday March 14, happens to be Nyepi which is Bali’s New Year celebration also known as “The Day of Silence.” This is a very important day of meditation, reflection and fasting with the purpose of returning to one’s self. There will be no lighting fires (lights must be kept low), no working, no entertainment or pleasure, no traveling, and for some, no talking or eating at all. The purpose of all of this is to instill purity and harmony and to contemplate upon one’s intentions for the upcoming new year.
Beginning on Sunday, I will use my time in quarantine to reflect on everything I’ve experienced in the past year, meditate for longer hours and also do a juice fast so that I can cleanse and detoxify my body. This will be my offering to God as a sign of my infinite gratitude and devotion. 🙏🏼
My dear Filipina friend @_annafrieswho is currently based in Bali will be doing this with me and we will both be sharing our thoughts and experiences on Instagram LIVE as we go along on a special journey of coming back to our true selves. ✨
Celebrating my return home by returning to my true self. I’m finally home, Manila. I am my own home. 🥰” Maxene wrote in the caption.
