Wisdom Healing - A Contemplative Retreat

For your safety and ours, we require proof of vaccination from all visitors and residents of Ratna Ling Retreat Center.  All participants will wear masks indoors, and some classes may be offered outdoors.  We wish to provide peace of mind for all of our guests.
"Do we have more potential than we acknowledge?"

Discover the profound wisdom of Tarthang Tulku as we explore his teachings through selected quotations from his writings and the practice of Kum Nye (Tibetan Yoga). The benefits of reading Quotes are immediate, powerful, and touching while delivering surprising insights and healing. This retreat will include the physical practice of Kum Nye, postures and exercises which nurture relaxation and inspire us to our full potential.  The combination of Quotes and Kum Nye awakens the body and mind, senses and heart.

All ages, bodies, and skill levels are welcome.

This weekend includes:

Nature Walk
Meditation
Tibetan Yoga
Discussion and Journaling

Each guest will receive a complimentary 4-book set of The Quiet Moment Collection: Breath, Inspiration, Contemplation and Compassion.
