Interview with Ali Hassoun
Has it ever occurred to you, my dear, that your personal experience may be the title of your true identity?
Don’t be surprised; Many individuals who succeed in a subject or take a certain path in their lives do so primarily based on the summary of their personal experiences, some of which serve as the cornerstone of completely changing their lives. More precisely; Some experiences are considered “crucial” in the formation of identity, as they can be a turning point in an individual’s life.
Welcome, Ali, to the “Hea” website. Tell us more about PEAQ Dubai: identity, services, goals, etc.
Welcome to “Hea” website.. PEAQ is the first social health club in the Middle East, built on the belief that well-being is not just about fitness or recovery – it is also about community. Our goal is to change people’s outlook on wellness, making it a shared active journey rather than an individual one.
How important is it to take care of ourselves and our health nowadays, in this fast-paced world?
This is really necessary, because with the constant demands of life, we often forget to take a break. Taking care of ourselves isn’t just about preventing burnout — it’s also about living to the fullest. At PEAQ, people are encouraged to invest time in their well-being, not as a luxury but as a necessity. Recovery isn’t bad; It’s part of the process that keeps us moving forward.
In your opinion; What makes people refrain, or show no interest, in adapting to a healthy and holistic lifestyle despite its many benefits?
I think it boils down to perception. Many find wellness to be stressful or time-consuming, and believe they need to make serious adjustments to their lives to get started. At PEAQ, we focus on small, achievable steps that fit into busy lifestyles. Whether it’s a 20-minute class or a quick ice bath, we make wellness both accessible and fun.
Tell us about the turning point in your life that shaped your concept of cold water therapy.
In 2019, I was at the lowest point in my personal and professional life. I was looking for something to help me reset myself, and I found cold water therapy. It wasn’t just about physical recovery; Rather, it has to do with the mental clarity and resilience I gained every time I plunged into freezing water.
What is cold water therapy? What are its benefits, and how can we benefit from it in our daily active lives?
Cold therapy involves immersing yourself in cool temperatures to reduce inflammation, boost circulation, and improve mental focus. It’s not just a physical treatment, it’s an instant mood reset. The flow of endorphins helps you feel energized and clear-headed.
