This month, our cover personality Dr Claudine Pang gives us a huge of dose of inspiration on how to better ourselves. In the quest for holistic renewal not just for herself but her patients, the accomplished ophthalmologist has launched a new aesthetics clinic, and is currently planning a host of initiatives to empower women as part of her role leading not one, but two, women’s societies. Her enthusiasm for growth and transformation is indeed infectious, for we have also come up with countless ideas on renewing the mind, body and soul. We present the most rejuvenating retreats around the world, point you to a plethora of arts events in town, curate the best Cruise 23 looks, and take you to two wellness resorts in Thailand. As we also know that many of you have gone on that long-awaited city break or ski vacation, our travel feature on the most idyllic and convenient English country estate holidays should set you dreaming again. And don’t you worry about the short runway from Christmas and New Year, to Chinese New Year. Balance your yin and yang through precious jewels that align with the five elements in Chinese culture, or boost your prospects this Year of the Jade Rabbit with new “lucky” timepieces. In addition, take a look at our modern Chinese cuisine recommendations by two freshly minted chef honchos from our favourite restaurants, Cassia at Capella Singapore and Shang Palace at Shangri-La Singapore. We also showcase intriguing new spirits to sample as well as exotic rosé wines – sparkling included – from all over the globe that will spruce up your reunion feasts and possibly make their way into your Valentine’s Day menu.
