From sunrise stretches to evening celebrations, the campaign transformed five malls into buzzing wellness hubs. At Silicon Central and Sharjah Central, atriums came alive with guided yoga sessions led by certified instructors, drawing a diverse crowd of early risers, families, and fitness lovers alike. The event at Silicon Central was inaugurated by Ahmad Ibrahim Busherin, president of the UAE Yoga Committee, vice president of the Asian Yoga Federation, and head of events and sponsorships at Dubai Sports Council, further emphasising the initiative's alignment with national wellness priorities.
These sessions also featured notable Emirati yoga instructors, including Mohammed Mostafa at Silicon Central and Mariam Altheraawi at Sharjah Central. Held in association with the Ministry of Sports – UAE, UFC Gym (Silicon Central Mal) and Gymnation (Sharjah Central Mall) - the activities reflected the government's holistic approach to promoting physical and mental wellbeing across the country.
At RAK Mall, the momentum reached a new high with a dynamic wellness and musical evening that blended yoga, live music, and interactive dance, turning the space into a spirited celebration of mind, body, and soul. The event was held in partnership with the Indian People's Forum and welcomed 200 participants, with the support and presence of officials from the Consulate General of India, strengthening cultural ties and community engagement.
At LuLu Mall Fujairah and Mall of UAQ, guests embraced the serenity of yoga sessions, reconnecting with nature and moments of mindfulness and guided movement. These tranquil gatherings provided the perfect contrast, inviting the community to slow down, breathe deeply, and find stillness amidst the energy.
This series of activations echoes the UAE's national vision for 2025 as the Year of Community, reinforcing the role of collective wellness events in fostering stronger social cohesion and shared purpose.

Ajman air quality index reaches 96.19% in first half of 2025
The Department of Municipality and Planning – Ajman has reported that the emirate's Air Quality Index (AQI) reached 96.19 per cent during the first half of 2025 According to the Emirates News Agency (WAM), which cited the environmental statistics released by the Department, the figure represents progress towards the Ajman Vision 2030 objectives to promote environmental sustainability. Dr Eng Khalid Moeen Al Hosani, Executive Director of the Public Health and Environment Sector at the Department, confirmed the index has increased compared to previous years. Ajman Reports air quality improvement as AQI climbs to 96.19 % The index has witnessed a significant increase compared to previous years, having recorded 94.40 per cent in the first half of 2024 and 93.48 per cent during the same period in 2023, Dr Eng Al Hosani said. He said the results confirm the effectiveness of the Department's environmental initiatives and the success of its plans to reduce air pollution and promote sustainability. Dr Eng Al Hosani noted the progress stems from continuous efforts and integrated planning, including the launch of several environmental projects and initiatives. The Environmental Compliance Programme represents the most notable initiative. The programme aims to enhance control over industrial facilities by requiring the submission of semi-annual reports assessing air pollution levels, thereby enhancing environmental compliance and enabling corrective actions where necessary. The Department has established a network of seven accredited air quality measurement stations in accordance with international standards and within the classification of the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment. Dr Eng Al Hosani indicated the Department seeks to increase the number of stations to 10 in the coming years to keep pace with urban growth in the emirate. All monitoring stations are connected to the Environmental Data Management Programme, a leading system locally and regionally, which enables the receipt of notifications, preparation of environmental reports and continuous air quality monitoring, Dr Eng Al Hosani stated. The stations are equipped with measuring devices to monitor environmental variables such as wind speed and direction, relative humidity and primary gases. Dr Eng Al Hosani emphasised that environmental efforts are ongoing, with the Department continuing to adopt local and international environmental practices. These initiatives contribute to enhancing the attractiveness of Ajman as a healthy and safe living environment, while supporting the UAE's broader objective of achieving carbon neutrality, he said.
