Sustainable gut health programming at Zulal Wellness Resort during Holy Month of Ramadan |

Qatari wellness destination, Zulal Wellness Resort by Chiva-Som, is supporting guests on their journey during the Muslim Holy Month of Ramadan.
Ramadan is a special time for reflection, self-improvement, kindness and spirituality, when those observing the Holy Month fast from dawn to dusk.
The new offerings are specifically designed to prepare the mind and body for periods of fasting, devotion and reflection.
Balancing the mind and gut Aligned with the phases of the Holy Month – prior, during and post-season – Zulal Wellness Resort’s tailored programmes and specially-devised meal plans are focused on preparing guests for and supporting fasting, bringing guests’ digestive and metabolic systems back to optimal function as well as rebalancing mind, body and spirit.
Before stepping into Ramadan fasting (which began on 23 March), Zulal recommended those participating should attend its Therapeutic Cleanse Retreat programme, together with the Cleansing Diet journey, to prepare the digestive system for a period of fasting, by balancing the microbiome and improving the metabolism.
The first 10 days of Ramadan are considered the days of mercy; a time to reflect on the body as a blessing and care for it accordingly.
Zulal suggests healing the gut by acting on the mental balance is the right step to take control of health, especially during Ramadan. The resort’s Mind-Body Retreat and Gut Healing Diet work in tandem to re-establish the connection between gut and brain, balance the mind and heal the gut.
Healthy lifestyles choices The middle 10 days of the Holy Month are aligned with forgiveness and provide an opportunity to internalise and establish healthy physical and mental lifestyle choices.
Building on the positive habits initiated during the first two phases, Zulal’s Sustainable Weight Loss programme focuses on restoring the gut and digestive system functions. The programme combines a personalised diet programme with metabolism-boosting exercises and treatments claimed to detoxify the body to support and educate guests on best practices to help achieve their long-term wellness goals.
Family friendly wellness While the first 20 days of Zulal’s Ramadan programme are aligned with self-discovery and self-improvement, the last 10 are centred on connection, the familial nature of Holy Month and bringing people together.
Zulal’s dedicated family offering, Zulal Discovery, offers an inclusive Family Bonding Retreat focused on encouraging families – including younger members – to explore health habits, while fostering stronger connections between families.
The programme is designed to create shared experiences that strengthen bonds while enjoying family-centric activities and meals for a memorable Ramadan experience – especially for children fasting for the first time.
Each retreat programme at Zulal Wellness Resort includes accommodation and individually tailored wellness cuisine meals per day; a personal health and wellness consultation; customised treatments based on individual goals and Ramadan practice; and full access to daily activities and the wellness centre, including hydrothermal suite, sauna, steamrooms, Himalayan salt room and swimming pools.
