With his busy schedule, Miguel Tanfelix makes sure his mental health is also taken care of.

Kapuso actor and Voltes V: Legacy star Miguel Tanfelix graces the cover of MEGA Man magazine for its May 2023 issue. And in the feature, the sparkle star shared how important sel fare is to him, such as finding peace and balance life.

The local magazine posted its new cover featuring Miguel on its Instagram page, describing the young actor as someone who “prioritizes his mental and physical well-being.”

“Despite his noticeable success in the acting industry, the 24-year old prioritizes his mental and physical well-being by taking time to recalibrate and reflect on his solo journeys--even when he's halfway across the world,” the magazine captioned their post.

In his interview for the magazine, Miguel mentioned how he likes to travel, either with some people or solo, to have “freedom and a sense of normalcy.”

“Growing up in this industry, there's a lot of people surrounding you, people telling you what to do. With solo travel, I can be myself. Hindi ko kailangan sumunod sa decisions ng iba, walang influence ng ibang tao,” he said.

He added, “It makes me feel free. Mas ramdam ko sarili ko pag ako lang mag-isa. Mas marami din akong taong nami-meet kapag ako lang mag-isa. And ayoko 'yong nakukulong din ako sa plano ng isang araw. Pag may hindi ka nagawa, mafu-frustrate ka lang.”

Miguel has been busy with the taping as well as the preparations for their upcoming mecha adaptation series, Voltes V: Legacy, with a few of its episodes being shown in select cinemas for viewers to have a cinematic experience with the series before it airs on TV.

Aside from that, he and his fellow cast members Ysabel Ortega, Radson Flores, Matt Lozano, and Raphael Landicho were also named as ambassadors to fight against piracy.

Aside from acting, Miguel has previously shown his interest in directing and has revealed that he wants to study directing.

“I can decide for myself now, in terms of career path. It's very critical to know where you want to go. I want to be known as an actor who takes [on] challenging roles. Less on the sexy side,” he said.
