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.

Wonderful
Rarely do the pictures in the ads match the reality of the location. In the case of Ratna Ling, the facility is more magnificent than the pictures. From the grounds, room, and retreat center, everything was beautiful. The staff was graceful and ever-present. As a non-vegetarian, I was skeptical that I would enjoy the food. But the food was plentiful and delicious. Thanks for a great retreat. Read More

Nikki Estrada Yoga Retreat
This land holds so much love and is exquisitely tended to. I woke up in the morning with joy in my heart to have landed there. The cabins are well appointed with gorgeous natural woods. I loved sitting by the fireplace in the morning with my hot tea looking out over the redwood studded hills.
Nikki is a seasoned teacher. She teaches with much clarity and precision. Savasana was a dream on heated floors.
The food was well balanced cooked with love. The staff was very attentive and kind. I will definitely be back and shared ratna Ling‘s website with many of my friends. I highly recommend this place. Read More

Surpassed all my expectations
The location was incredibly peaceful, surrounded by gorgeous trees. The facility is spacious and pristine. The food was outstanding. I was blown away by the cabins! Beautiful, clean, terrific porches to enjoy the birds and nature. My only complaint is that we didn't get enough down time to enjoy it as much as I wanted. That said, the retreat itself (led by Mark Matousek) was simply life changing. Thank you to all of the volunteers for making this place what it is! Read More
