    5 Beginner Yoga Poses To Help You Sleep Better

    by

    These yoga poses are beginner-friendly and all you need is an open space in your house. If you don’t have a yoga mat, place a towel down on your carpet. We recommend putting on some peaceful yoga music and flow your way to deeper sleep.Yoga Poses To Help You Sleep Better
    [embedded content]
    5 Yoga Poses To Help You Sleep Better by Amy HoppyPose 1: Forward BendTo start, inhale as you lift your hands towards the ceiling for High Mountain pose. Exhale Forward Bend, hinging from the hips (bend your knees as much as you need to). While in a Forward Bend pose, you can straighten your legs, pedalling out one at a time, stretching your hamstrings. Grab opposite elbows and hang out in a ragdoll-like pose. Sway gently from left to right before slowly coming all the way up.Benefits: Stretches the hamstrings, calves and hips while reducing anxiety, relieving stress and calming the mind. Creates a calming effect on the brain.Pose 2: Child’s PoseWith knees to the edge of the mat, toes to touch, hips towards heels, extend your arms out in front of you, lifting elbows off the mat. Place your forehead on the mat, gently rolling from left to right.Benefits: Stretches hips, thighs and ankles while reducing stress and fatigue. Gently relaxes muscles in the front of the body while softly stretching muscles at the back.Yoga Pose 3: Shoulder Stand (to Ear Pressure Pose)Begin lying down and then use your core to lift your legs up. Place your elbows firmly on the mat, hands to your bra strap line to assist with holding the lift with a straight spine. Straighten legs. Hold for one minute. When you feel ready, you can add Ear-Pressure pose to this move. Gently bend your knees and press the inside of the knee area into the ears on each side of your heading, blocking out sound.Benefits: Shoulder stand pose helps to improve circulation, calm headaches and relax the mind. Ear-Pressure pose (aka deaf man’s pose) helps calm the mind by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. It also removes excess stimuli.Yoga Pose 4: Legs Up The Wall PoseAny wall surface will do. The trick is to get your bum as close to the wall as possible. It might feel uncomfortable initially, but soon your body will relax into the pose. Focus on slow, steady breath and stay in the posture for 10 minutes.Benefits: Deep relaxation, soothes swollen legs and feet, stretches hamstrings and lower back while relieving tension in the lower back (practise while experiencing period pain). This is a great pose to do before setting up for your nighttime routine as it really helps to calm the mind.Yoga Pose 5: Corpse PoseStart by lying down on the mat, feet and hands to the edges of the mat, hands facing upwards in a gesture of openness. Close your eyes and focus on your breath as you settle into a state of meditation. Try to remain as still as possible. Option 2: Bring your feet to touch and let your knees drop out towards the sides. Stay in this position for 10 minutes without moving. No fidgeting, no scratching.Benefits: Sensory stimulation and external distractions are minimised to help the body completely relax. With a grounded body, mental energy can be channelled inwards and the mind can start to explore the body from the inside. This posture increases self-awareness and introspection, which has been linked to decreased symptoms of anxiety and depression.Tips for meditatingIf you don’t have time to do all five of these, just spend five to 10 minutes with your legs up against the wall. Remember to focus on your breath and clear your mind. Use the breath in each of these postures to keep your focus on being present on the mat, aware of your body.Yoga/Meditation Cushion 1/2 Moon

    When your mind starts to wander out the room, bring your attention back to your breath. When thoughts pop up, accept them and let them go. Let them pass through without attaching emotion to them and focus again on the breath.Women’s Health participates in various affiliate marketing programmes, which means we may get commissions on editorially chosen products purchased through our links to retailer sites.

      How Paus Club 2.0 is transforming the wellness scene in Dubai

      by

      Life

      by Sarah Joseph
      2 mins ago

      Co-founders of Paus Club 2.0, Sophiya and Sarah Faizal, share how they have created a sanctuary of wellness in the heart of Dubai.
      What inspired you to launch Paus Club 2.0?
      Honestly, it came from a really personal place. Life can feel so fast-paced, and we all need a moment to just pause and breathe. That’s where the idea for Paus started – creating a space where people can step away from the chaos and reconnect with themselves. We wanted to reimagine wellness as something deeper than workouts or diets – a lifestyle that feels meaningful and personal.
      How have you incorporated your passion for holistic healing at Paus?
      Holistic healing is at the heart of everything we do at Paus. It’s not about quick fixes or trends; it’s about offering real, sustainable ways for people to feel their best. From our programmes to the way the space is designed, it’s all about helping people find balance – not just physically but mentally and emotionally too. It’s like giving people tools to make life feel a little lighter and more joyful.

      Can you tell us about your Matcha Mornings sessions?
      Matcha Mornings are one of my favorite things we do at Paus. It’s such a relaxed and open space where we get to have real conversations about topics that make you think. We’ll chat about everything from personal growth to navigating life’s challenges—all over a cozy cup of matcha or coffee. It’s casual, it’s insightful, and it’s a great way to connect with others who are on similar journeys. Padel is a growing sport in the UAE – was it a decsion to include this form the outset as you predicted this rise in poularity? Padel felt like a no-brainer for us. It’s fun, it’s social, and it’s such a great way to move your body without it feeling like a chore. We’ve always believed in blending play into wellness, and padel fits perfectly with that. Wellness is one of those things that transcends culture – it’s something we all relate to. At Paus, we’ve tried to celebrate that in so many ways, from the food we serve to the programmes we run. It’s really beautiful to see people from such different backgrounds come together and find common ground here. That’s been part of the dream all along.
      “It’s not about quick fixes or trends; it’s about offering real, sustainable ways for people to feel their best”

      What’s next in the pipeline for the brand?
      Phase 2 of Paus Club is just around the corner, and we couldn’t be more excited! We’re gearing up to open the full restaurant and spa, which are going to be such game-changers for the space. The restaurant will focus on fresh, seasonal, and balanced dishes that reflect our philosophy – comforting yet nourishing, with flavours that make you feel at home. And the spa will take our approach to self-care even further, offering treatments designed for relaxation, recovery, and mobility, all with a focus on enhancing both physical and mental well-being. We’re also launching new programmes and memberships to make wellness more accessible and personalised. These memberships will create a deeper sense of belonging, giving people access to workshops, exclusive events, and even community meet-ups. The goal is to make sure Paus isn’t just a place you visit but a space that feels like an extension of your life – somewhere to grow, connect, and find your balance.

      This is The Tranquility Issue – how do you keep your peace during testing times?
      Right now, with everything going on as we’re launching Paus Club, my routine has been my anchor. It’s the one thing keeping me grounded. Morning walks with my dog are my little slice of calm before the day kicks off – it’s such a simple way to reset and clear my mind. And tennis has been a great outlet too. It helps me stay active, release stress, and just have fun amidst the chaos. These moments in my routine have been my way of finding tranquilityduring such a busy time.

      How I got my job as… Founder of this UAE-based wellness studio

      by

      Life

      by Sarah Joseph
      18 mins ago

      This week we chat with Adrienne Everett, an international yoga instructor and founder of HWH Studio in Dubai. This luxury boutique Yoga, Pilates and Wellness space offers visitors an immersive experience to switch off in solitude.
      Welcome to the Emirates Woman weekly series ‘How I got my job as…’ where we speak to some incredible entrepreneurs and businesswomen both based in the UAE and globally to find out about their career paths that led them to where they are now; what their daily routines look like; the advice they’d give to those starting out; and the hurdles they’ve had to overcome.
      Having recently opened in Dubai’s new Delano hotel, this space is crafted to be an oasis of calm and inspiration, offering a curated selection of classes, treatments, and experiences designed to nurture the body, mind, and soul. Our new studio is a seamless blend of Delano’s iconic elegance and our commitment to holistic well-being, providing guests and visitors with an environment where luxury and wellness harmonise.
      To delve into her story further, Emirates Woman spoke to Everett to see how it all began.
      What was your favourite subject at school?
      Definitely English. I loved exploring stories, writing, and diving into creativity. It felt like a playground for my imagination.

      What was your first job?
      I worked as an Equity Derivatives Sales Trader on Wall Street right out of college—intense, exhilarating, and such a great foundation for understanding business.
      What brought you to Dubai?
      The mega wellness opportunity. Dubai is a hub of innovation and growth, and I knew it was the perfect place to expand and evolve in the wellness space.

      What inspired you to enter the space and your brand?
      It was all about finding my purpose. I wanted to create a brand that magnifies my passion for getting people to the mat and connecting with their inner selves. That obsession with movement and mindfulness drives everything I do.
      Talk us through the concept.
      HWH is more than a space; it’s a connection, a community, and a sanctuary. It’s a place where people can come as they are, feel seen, and leave feeling more like themselves.
      What are the key elements of your role?
      Connecting with people, curating transformative experiences, and cheerleading—whether that’s my team, students, or the broader community. It’s about lifting everyone up.
      Talk us through your daily routine.
      Every day looks a little different, and I love that. But the constants are the mat—it’s my anchor—and carving out moments to read, write, and flow. The flexibility of working for myself allows me to find joy in each day’s unique rhythm.
      What advice do you have for anyone looking to follow in the same footsteps?
      Have a clear vision and flow into it. Stay grounded in your purpose but flexible in your approach.
      Tell us more about the services.
      We offer yoga, Pilates, and all things elevated wellness. It’s about creating transformative experiences that go beyond the physical—mind, body, and soul alignment.
      What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?
      “It must be fun.” If you’re not enjoying the journey, it’s time to reevaluate.

      And what is the worst?
      “Go with the flow.” Purpose and intentionality are key—sometimes you need to swim upstream to get where you’re meant to be.
      What’s the biggest challenge you have had to overcome?
      Accepting that I can’t do everything. Delegating and leaning on my team has been a huge growth point for me.
      What lies ahead for the brand?
      We’re focused on transforming more spaces and connecting people globally through the mat. The mission is to create a worldwide ripple effect of wellness, connection, and transformation.

      9 effective techniques that will help you manage stress

      Life

      by Ruman Baig
      1 min ago

      Looking to start 2024 on a positive note? Practice these 9 stress reduction techniques to kick-start your wellness journey.
      Deep Breathing

      Practise diaphragmatic breathing to reduce stress. Deep breaths increase oxygen flow, promoting skin cell regeneration and improving overall skin health. Try breathing in for a count of 4 and out for a count of 6 to activate the parasympathetic nervous system.
      Meditation
      Engage in mindfulness meditation to calm the mind. Reduced stress levels can prevent skin issues like acne and eczema, promoting a healthier complexion. An app such as Calm or Superhuman will help guide you.
      Yoga

      Incorporate yoga into your routine for physical and mental relaxation. Poses such as a Child’s Pose enhance blood circulation, aiding nutrient delivery to the skin.
      Hydration

      Stay adequately hydrated as it supports skin elasticity and texture. Dehydration can contribute to stress, impacting skin health negatively. Electrolytes play a huge part in keeping you hydrated, we love Humantra.
      Nature Walks

      Spend time in nature to reduce cortisol levels. Fresh air and green surroundings contribute to a sense of calm, positively impacting skin health.
      Sleep Quality
      Prioritise quality sleep for skin rejuvenation. During deep sleep, the body repairs and regenerates cells, contributing to a radiant complexion and overall wellbeing.Try to stick to the same bed time and wake time as this supports an optimal circadian rhythm. Morning light is also important as is not eating before bed and having 30 minutes to 1 our without screentime before you go to bed.
      Aromatherapy
      Use calming scents like lavender or chamomile to relax. Aromatherapy can reduce stress-related skin issues and promote a soothing environment, try Aromatherapy Associates.
      Digital Detox
      Limit screen time to mitigate stress. Constant exposure to screens can contribute to skin problems, taking breaks and limiting social media fosters relaxation.
      Art & Creativity
      Engage in artistic activities as a form of expression. Creating art can be therapeutic, reducing stress and promoting a healthy mindset that reflects on the skin.
