Looking after our people means looking after their health, too — and this month, that meant taking a closer look at something we rarely stop to think about: the way we breathe.
On Sunday, 17 August 2026, our virtual assistants joined a one-hour Lung Awareness webinar, hosted together by REassist and our healthcare partner PhilCare. Under the theme “Breathe Better. Live Better.”, the session was led by Dr. Leslyne V. Lumanang, a Pulmonary Medicine Specialist from Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital.
The timing was fitting. August is observed as Lung Month in the Philippines — a nationwide reminder to give our respiratory health the attention it deserves.
Over the hour, Dr. Lumanang walked the team through evidence-based practices for keeping our lungs healthy: practical, everyday habits that add up over time. For a team that spends much of the day at a desk, it was a valuable reminder that small, consistent changes can make a real difference to how we feel — and how well we breathe.
