Details of this retreat
We welcome back Advanced Yoga Teacher Denelle Numis of San Francisco for a special yoga retreat at Ratna Ling to celebrate the Springtime!
Indulge yourself in a luxurious weekend getaway to the coastal redwoods of Sonoma County with Denelle Jarro Numis. Give yourself the gift of daily yoga and meditation, delicious and nutritious vegetarian meals and a blissful 2-nights stay in a cozy cottage at Ratna Ling Retreat Center. Optional hikes to the coastline included, and massages on the premises are available upon request. Retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city and reconnect to your super self!
*This retreat will feature a special Sound Healing by guest Sound Healer, Gena Price! Sound healing is a deeply immersive experience. Designed to promote relaxation, meditation and healing, participants are enveloped in waves of soothing instrumental sounds. Singing bowls, gongs and chimes create a sensory-rich environment, fostering deep rest and renewal. The term “sound bath” reflects this experience, as the vibrations wash over you like water, guiding you to a state of tranquility and harmony.

Balance yoga retreat April 2025
Just finished a very healing ,balancing and nourishing weekend at Ratna Ling Tibetan Center.
The location is ideal for unwinding and basking in the beauty and quiet.
Food was plentiful and delicious.... fresh veggies and fruit, fresh baked bread fantastic vegetarian main dishes.
Yoga was held in a beautiful studio with views of the forest from the deck outside mats and props supplied.
Instruction was with Dana Hancock from Sebastopol a very experienced and skillful teacher. The classes were 1-2 hours and left me feeling very grounded and refreshed.
During the free time I spent either meditating or walking the beautiful property that is surrounded by forest and redwood trees and a very sacred and peaceful meditation garden.
The cabins are spacious and well appointed very cozy and perfect for two people to share.Highly recommend Ratna ling!!

The land of beauty
So much beauty and spaciousness exists in Ratna Ling, it is hard to decide what to focus on first...
Was it the three red bellied newts in the forest of redwoods or the family of deer at the pond where many birds converse, that was my favorite moment at Ratna Ling. Maybe the himalayan ponies near the upper pond with the surrounding stupas near the dharma publishing area were what stole my heart...Or the serenity that enveloped and brought sense back to my higher wisdom that held me in reverence of
my life? That I believe was the mystical elixir of it all...
From the morning sun peaking over the mountain tops to the rising full moon illumination casting enlightened love thru the land, there is peace for me at Ratna LIng.
