Details of this retreat

We welcome back Guest Teacher Dariece Warren, Owner of Vallejo Yoga, to host a retreat that will enliven and awaken you!
Let go of the heaviness of winter and welcome in the energy of the spring season! Using mindful movement and alignment based yoga flow we will release tension and clear out stagnant energy to raise our vibration. We will ground ourselves using restorative yoga, pranayama, chanting, and meditation.  The sacred land and beauty of Ratna Ling will support your deeper connection with nature which in turn supports your deeper connection with yourself physically, mentally, and spiritually.  This special weekend will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired.

Rat a Ling with Gretchen
Just what I needed. Gretchen was a teacher of many things and I came away with many tools to enrich my soul. An amazing group of people all of whom brought so much to the group. I will be returning for sure.

The most peaceful retreat center set in nature
I LOVE Ratna LIng. It is remote, peaceful, with nothing but nature sounds to hear. The fall is lovely here. Lots of wind, the sound of leaves and birds and trees. It's a very easy place to disconnect from all the city things and people here. The retreat program I participated in was not overly scheduled, calm, healing. Food was super fresh, vegetarian, and lovely. The cottages are soooo nice! I left wanting more time there...

Best retreat in Bay Area
This was my third time and all I can say is each time I fall in love even more with Ratna Ling! The entire wooded forest, the gorgeous cabins, the free roaming turkeys, the incredibly delicious meals and Ofcourse the energy of peace radiating through out. Linda the director co led this retreat which was filled with insights and activities to calm and reset. Forest meditation to self massage techniques. We also received books and a journal. I highly recommend a Ratna retreat to everyone!

What a weekend
The center is nestled in the trees and mountains and just a lovely setting. The guest cabins are gorgeous wood structures and so well appointed. The 2 bedroom cabins are lovely private and nestled in the trees, the decks face away from other cabins so you feel like you are in your own world. The furniture lovely and comfortable and the spa bathtub was a total oasis of relaxation itself. We didn't get to use the wood stove but it looked inviting. While we didn't experience any rain - the metal rooves on the cabins would have made such a sound. The main lodge was a 5 minute walk on a paved path through nature. The wooden structure has high ceilings, beams, warm woodwork and stone work and is quite beautiful. There are fountains and outdoor seating. The vegetarian meal were so delicious - both a feast for the taste buds and the eyes. the fresh baked bread and desserts were scrumptious. So many fresh local ingredients. The yoga room had a gorgeous wood ceiling and many windows, such a warm welcoming space. Many acres to explore and enjoy.
