Hatha Yoga Easter Retreat
Centre of Unity
Schweibenalp Switzerland
17 - 21 April 2025

'Listen, grow and live with your heart' Leave everyday life behind you over Easter and immerse yourself in the world of your own source, your spiritual heart. The retreat program is designed so that your joy of life flows more day by day, your body stretches, expands and strengthens and you nourish yourself with pranic energy. You will learn wonderful bhakti practices that develop humility and devotion. We practice mindful Hatha Yoga every day, combining the physical and subtle practice with 4 differentiated philosophical topics that help you lead a meaningful life and understand that there is no real reason for mental suffering. We will celebrate a Vedic Fire Ceremony, expanding our consciousness with chants, mantra and sound that energize and trigger deep transformation.
