Details of this retreat

Set your intentions for 2026! 

Join certified yoga teacher, Reiki Master, and published writer, Alyssa Lauren Stone, for a transformative weekend in the forests of Sonoma County– 900 feet above the sea, as we take the opportunity to pause, reflect, and realign with our intentions for the year ahead. 

From faster-paced Vinyasa flows to more restful Restorative poses, we will explore different types of yoga, breathwork, and meditation techniques to get the body energized and relaxed throughout the weekend. We will also traverse into the world of subtle energies and apply scientifically proven methods such as sound healing to help raise our consciousness, vibration, and frequency. 

There will be an afternoon of quiet time to indulge in introspection. Whether that be journaling, utilizing the hiking trails around the property, or signing up for an optional Reiki energy healing session, we will learn how to use our innate sense of intuition to guide our weekend and year ahead.

Perfect Escape
Ratna Ling is a spectacular retreat center! The grounds & cabins are serene, stunning, and private. The vegetarian cuisine is fresh, seasonal, delicious, and filled with love! As a meat-eater in my daily life, the offerings were also very filling and nourishing!
Gloria is an outstanding facilitator, teacher, and human. If you have a chance to learn from her, take it!

Rejuvenating and beautiful
The cabins were surprisingly large, very clean and comfortable. The setting is serene, and we appreciated both the beauty of the surrounding nature in the day time as well as the unbelievable star visibility at night! Food was nutritious and tasty with plenty of options. We appreciated the meditation classes offered but also felt free to explore and take the retreat time at our own pace. The atmosphere is very uplifting and welcoming. We'll be back! Thank you to all the very kind staff!

Absolutely the best. Serene, quiet, peaceful. I attended a retreat here led by Becky Vollmer and Michael Wilson. It was a truly transformational experience. The cottages are spacious and well stocked with everything you need. The food is so fresh and delicious! The staff is accommodating and welcoming. And nature surrounds you in all of her magnificence.

Forest Bathing with Ben Page
Well-planned, engaging, welcoming, thoughtful, restorative, stimulating experience. Ben was a perfect facilitator. Ratna Ling staff were terrific hosts, the accommodations sweet and comfortable, delicious food, the redwoods were inspiring and the meditation class and temple tour a joy (thanks, George!). Loved watching the gardeners across the street tend to the plants and grounds. Thanks!
