Former Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach took to Instagram her musings about recharging and taking a break during the holiday season.
In a lengthy post, Pia expressed how grateful she is that the holidays gave her a chance to “properly switch off.”
Pia said she made sure to complete her work commitments so she could “focus on the art of doing nothing.”
“And it was great.. and much needed. No plans. No itinerary. Just chilling. Not even answering messages or emails. Sometimes you need that. To 100% disconnect yourself from the grind,” she continued.
The beauty queen recounted how she was getting burned out prior to the trip because she didn't take a break after her marathon in New York City.
"I kept going as usual and kept filling up spaces in my calendar thinking it was the right decision. “Laban lang!” as we'd always say. That turned out to be the wrong move. Naubos ako, kumbaga,” she mused.
Pia added she tends to feel guilty when she takes time for herself. “It happens to a lot of us who love pouring ourselves into the things we love.”
Pia spent the holidays with her fiancé, Jeremy Jauncey. The couple also welcomed the new year with Jeremy's family.
“Spent New Year's making new traditions with Jeremy & the fam,” Pia said in one of her Instagram posts.
