Niyama Maldives hosts holistic therapist Muayad Najemeddin

Published

on

Globe-trotting holistic therapist Muayad Najemeddin has graced the twin private islands of Niyama Maldives.

From September 29 to October 26, guests of the islands will be able to book private healing sessions of vibrational treatments like Tibetan Singing Bowl Therapy and Reiki along with Meditative Yoga enhanced with sound.

Leaving behind a corporate career in Dubai, Muayad was inspired to embark on a journey of self-discovery. From Thailand to India, to Oman and Nepal, he discovered the power of healing vibrations as he trained with masters and practiced his art. Seeking wisdom at the source, he studied yoga at its most ancient institute in India and Bowl Singing with a third-generation Tibetan shaman.

Amidst the pure beauty of the Maldives, he will be sharing the expertise and healing energies gained in his journeys. Muayad will be creating bespoke signature experiences for Niyama’s guests based on their daily lifestyle, areas of stress within their body and energy blockage.

With a soundscape perfectly attuned to your needs, Muayad’s Tibetan Singing Bowls can transport you to a state of complete relaxation and energy purification. Each note of the singing bowl corresponds to one of the seven chakras of your body. Acting as your personal guide, Muayad helps you let go and drift in a mix of uplifting sensations.

Guests may choose to start their morning slowly awakening in a Meditative Yoga class by the clear waters of the Indian Ocean. For vibration that can be felt rather than heard, Reiki treatments will also be offered. For those seeking supreme rejuvenation, The Ultimate Journey combines the healing elements of Meditation, Reiki, Massage and Singing Bowls in a customised two-hour journey.
