About Lela Akhavan (Retreat Leader)
Founder of Lela Yoga Hamburg (2014), yoga teacher (500-hour Yoga Alliance certification), meditation instructor, and certified life and business coach (DBVC, IOBC) and stress/emotions coach (emTrace®).
I have been practicing yoga and meditation for over 20 years. I deepened my experience in India, Thailand, and Australia, as well as through many years of guidance from Ursula Lyon. Training with Remo Rittiner, A. G. Mohan, Oliver Sheridan, and at Anahata Yoga, among others, expanded my knowledge of Eastern healing methods, mindfulness, and Western anatomy.
My mission: to guide people toward greater authenticity, self-determination, and inner balance—with empathy, clarity, and heart.

The Diets
Not sure which diet is right for you? – That’s no problem. We developed this program more than 17 years ago and are constantly refining it because we want to create a healthy, relaxing, and inspiring environment where you can achieve your personal life goals.
Types of Diets
To begin this “journey to health,” the Long Vita Center offers a wide range of healthy menus that support your mission and our vision. We’re proud of our selection of diets, which are tailored to the needs of all our guests. The flexibility and individualized approach to each guest’s nutrition make the Long Vita Center a unique place.
Vegetable-and-Fruit Diet
Developed by Long Vita - Czapielski Młyn more than 15 years ago, this diet is based on Dr. Dąbrowska’s vegetable and fruit fast. It has healing properties aimed at cleansing the body of all harmful substances. Due to its low calorie content and limited nutrient intake, a side effect is the loss of excess body weight. Thus, the diet leads to detoxification and weight loss.
