Dubai, UAE — 4 February 2026 — VIWELL, an end-to-end ecosystem that enables balanced workplaces through holistic wellbeing, is encouraging individuals, families, and organizations to keep wellbeing in mind throughout the holy month of Ramadan.
As Ramadan brings changes to daily routines, fasting hours, sleep patterns, and work schedules, VIWELL highlights the importance of intentional wellbeing practices to maintain balance, energy, and resilience during this spiritually significant period.
“Ramadan is a time for reflection, compassion, and spiritual growth, and wellbeing plays a central role in allowing individuals to observe the month with presence and purpose,” said Mohammed Husary, Founder and CEO of VIWELL. “While fasting and altered routines can be physically and mentally demanding, caring for one’s wellbeing helps individuals fully engage in the spiritual and social aspects of the month. Wellbeing must remain a priority, especially during Ramadan.”
To support holistic wellbeing throughout Ramadan, VIWELL shares the following practical guidance aligned with its six core wellbeing pillars:
Physical Wellbeing
- Stay hydrated during non‑fasting hours
- Engage in light or moderate physical activity at appropriate times
- Prioritize sufficient and quality sleep
Nutritional Wellbeing
- Avoid over‑portioning at suhoor and iftar; break the fast gently to enable better digestion
- Limit highly processed, fried, or overly sweet foods
- Choose complex carbohydrates, lean proteins, healthy fats, and fibre‑rich foods to support sustained fullness and stable blood sugar levels
Mental Wellbeing
- Create moments for mindfulness, prayer, and reflection
- Manage expectations and workloads to reduce stress
- Allow mental space to rest and recharge
Social Wellbeing
- Foster meaningful connections with family, friends, and colleagues
- Balance social obligations with personal energy levels
- Exhibit kindness, empathy, and generosity in daily interactions
Professional Wellbeing
- Communicate openly and early with colleagues about work deadlines, availability, and capacity
- Create clear boundaries between work, rest, and spiritual time to support balance
- Practice patience and self‑compassion when productivity feels different from non‑fasting periods
Financial Wellbeing
- Plan and manage spending during Ramadan and Eid preparations
- Practice mindful consumption
- Align financial habits with the values of moderation and giving
“At VIWELL, our mission includes empowering people to thrive during Ramadan,” Husary added. “Wellbeing is not separate from spiritual life; it supports it. By remaining mindful and intentional during Ramadan, individuals can emerge from the holy month feeling healthier, more connected, and more balanced.”
VIWELL also encourages organizations to support employee wellbeing during Ramadan by offering flexibility where possible, fostering understanding workplace cultures, and promoting balance and empathy.
