Very much recommend

The facilities and grounds are spacious, beautiful, peaceful, and unique. Food is wonderful; fresh and delicious. Accommodations are comfortable and well appointed. Ratna Ling is an ideal environment for enjoying a weekend of relaxation and gentle introspection or an extended stay with intensive internal work.

Best retreat center EVER!!

This is my second visit to Ratna Ling. The first was last year for a yoga retreat. This year I went for a Tibetan Buddhist teaching retreat. They were ncredible experiences! The accomodations are exceptionally spacious, the grounds are beautiful, the volunteers are kind, considerate and take care of everything seamlessly! The food is exceptional!
The new yoga student is gorgeous with floor to ceiling windows looking out over a tree filled valley. Would love to come here for a longer weeklong retreat! It is such a lovely location with gorgeous facilities.

Thank you!

Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga classes

I signed up for a 5 day morning kum nye online class with Ratna Ling and had a wonderful experience. It was my first time experiencing this style of yoga and i appreciated the simplicity of its movements, Its inward focus , its gentleness and its effectiveness. It was both relaxing and uplifting at the same time. Karmyn created a warm, safe, and encouraging environment. Thank you for this offering.

A Weekend of Peace

Ratna Ling is a spot of bliss in the middle of nowhere. The accommodations were lovely: beautiful wood work, comfy beds, mini fridge, gorgeous view from the window. From the cooks to the managers, everyone on the staff treated us with warmth and kindness. Although they request shoes off inside, they were totally OK with me leaving mine on my difficult feet. George's guided meditation and tour of the on-site temple matched the varied needs of the group, no easy feat. He answered all of our questions; there was no hesitation to discuss religious skepticism and no question was offensive. The vegetarian food was plentiful and delicious; I came away wanting recipes. Even without the themed retreat, just spending time at Ratna Ling would be the ultimate relaxation, getting in touch with nature, unplugging from the crazy world, and feeling renewed.
