UNITY OF NEW ZEALAND
Building Community, Deepening Spirituality, Transforming Lives.
Oprah, Maya Angelou and Unity
Maya Angelou, a celebrated poet and author, speaks to Oprah Winfrey about Unity. In this powerful talk she emphasises what role Unity played in her life, her spiritual enlightenment, the power of words, love and positive thinking. Unity resonates with Angelou's messages of hope, self-empowerment, and universal connectedness, highlighting the shared quest for inner peace and community upliftment.

Unity is a way of life and teaches, “How to think, not what to think” giving people the opportunity to follow their own spiritual path in a loving, accepting and nurturing environment.
How Unity Started
Unity is a cornerstone of the New Thought movement, inspiring some of the world’s most influential thinkers, including Maya Angelou, Wayne Dyer, Betty White, Florence Scovel-Shinn and Marianne Williamson (just to name a few).
Founded in the late 1800s, Unity began when Myrtle Fillmore cured herself of tuberculosis through Christian principles, Somatic Body spiritual practices and prayer. Her husband, Charles, adopted her methods, and together they created a movement that has reached millions globally.
Known for its teachings on healing, prosperity, and spiritual awakening, Unity continues to offer timeless principles that resonate across generations, encouraging individuals to live with faith, purpose, and an elevated consciousness. Its legacy of spiritual transformation remains vibrant and relevant today.
