Program
Often, exotic retreat destinations involve long-haul flights, and the travel connections can be complex, with various stopovers. Unity's retreat is designed to offer you access to guaranteed sunshine during the European winter months, while reducing the impact on your schedule to a minimum.
International European airports offer direct flights to Hurghada in four and a half hours. Whatever the sky looks like when you wake up in the morning, by early afternoon, you can be peacefully relaxing on a sun-lounger by one of the multiple pools with a healthy, freshly made smoothie in hand, surrounded by sunny coastline and sea as far as the eye can see.
And, that's even before you start the retreat!
Whether on the mat, in the desert, or in your inner temple, Felix Campbell will inspire you to go beyond the physical - tuning into the power of the present moment to relax, to rewire, and to remember what matters.
Felix is a full-time yoga teacher, life coach, mentor, and entrepreneur, with a quarter of a century of experience in personal and spiritual development, optimal health and well-being. He is the founder of Unity, who will take excellent care of you and go the extra mile to co-create an experience which will nourish your body, mind, and soul.
Unity sincerely hopes that you join them in this magical moment, far from the daily preoccupations and digital distractions, in order to breathe longer, practice more deeply, sleep better, and return to your natural state of joy!
These retreats will be open to you whatever your experience with yoga is. The intention for the practice is physical, mental, and emotional detoxing; in other words, letting go.
