Ratna Ling's Women Self-Care Retreat is an annually anticipated event with many women returning each year to share the love and community. Whether it is your first time or fifth, come join us for a long weekend of healing sisterhood.

Are you hungry for a safe place to rest and relax?

Come together with fellow women to celebrate our innate strength, wisdom, and compassion. We will celebrate the importance of connecting with girlfriends and remember all the beautiful parts of being a woman.  This time is to reconnect to the sacred feminine and cultivate a community of sisterhood and solidarity through deep listening, laughter, self-care, and ceremony.  This retreat is for you if you love women, miss your sisters, or want to deepen your relationship with the feminine, soft, sexy, strong, surrendered parts of yourself.

Wow. The retreat was incredible and the retreat center was equally amazing!
Wow! I just spent the weekend with Nicole Griffin "reclaiming my nervous system" and I am leaving so relaxed. Nicole is such an excellent teacher! Additionally, this retreat center is so amazing! The cottages have breathtaking views, they are so clean and comfortable with everything you can possibly need. I can't recommend Nicole and this retreat center enough!

Heaven on Earth!
Restorative yoga in the gorgeous beauty of the redwoods and sublime peace of a world class meditation center - that is quite simply the magic of Ratna Ling. My 8th time was a charm and a delight as always.

Grounding, expansive, WORTH IT
Ratna Ling is a treasure and a half. Three night here feel like a week and a half. There’s something special about this place that grounds and gets you quiet inside. Gloria is an incredible facilitator, everyone was so kind and helpful, and the food is always amazing. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for respite, a reset, and clarity.

Beautiful and Serene
The Ratna Ling retreat center is located in the woods along the spectacular No CA Coast. The cottages are deluxe with comfortable beds and seating, porches and kitchenettes. There is space there for escape, a personal retreat of whatever sort is needed. There are yoga and meditation sessions and thoughtful, tasty vegetarian meals. The folks that live and work there are friendly and accommodating. Can't say enough good things!
