How a grief retreat helped me rediscover balance
Briefly

David Mclaren, after losing his wife to cancer, takes his daughters to the Zulal Wellness Resort in Qatar for healing and bonding. With a focus on emotional wellness, activities include cooking, paddle-boarding, and eco-trail walks, curated by specialists. The resort's serene environment promotes rest and reflection, essential for Mclaren as a single parent navigating grief. Supported by Laura, Mclaren's sister-in-law, the family seeks both respite and guidance in coping with their loss, enhanced by Zulal's unique blend of Traditional Arabic and Western wellness practices.
Set by a turquoise lagoon at the northern tip of Qatar, Zulal looks like a traditional walled village, albeit with top-notch cuisine and an exhaustive menu of activities.
Managed by Thai wellness titan Chiva-Som, it offers the same blend of Ayurvedic, Western and Far Eastern practices as the original, except here the focus is Traditional Arabic and Islamic Medicine.
