About this Retreat
Your Guides
Dariece took her first yoga class over 30 years ago. She was looking for something to help her manage stress and relieve back pain, and she secretly wanted to touch her toes again. By the end of class she was completely relaxed mentally and physically. Touching her toes came later, but she was hooked! Teaching since 2004, Dariece has completed teacher trainings in Svastha Yoga, Vinyasa Flow, Restorative and Yin. She has studied with teachers in the U.S. and in India with A.G. and Indra Mohan, devoted students of Krishnamacharya. In 2014, she completed Yoga Therapy training with Dr. Ganesh Mohan. She is the owner of Vallejo Yoga in Vallejo, CA where she has taught public and private classes since 2008. Dariece is a practicing Reiki Master in the Usui tradition.

Balance yoga retreat April 2025
Just finished a very healing ,balancing and nourishing weekend at Ratna Ling Tibetan Center.
The location is ideal for unwinding and basking in the beauty and quiet.
Food was plentiful and delicious.... fresh veggies and fruit, fresh baked bread fantastic vegetarian main dishes.
Yoga was held in a beautiful studio with views of the forest from the deck outside mats and props supplied.
Instruction was with Dana Hancock from Sebastopol a very experienced and skillful teacher. The classes were 1-2 hours and left me feeling very grounded and refreshed.
During the free time I spent either meditating or walking the beautiful property that is surrounded by forest and redwood trees and a very sacred and peaceful meditation garden.
The cabins are spacious and well appointed very cozy and perfect for two people to share.Highly recommend Ratna ling!!

The land of beauty
So much beauty and spaciousness exists in Ratna Ling, it is hard to decide what to focus on first...
Was it the three red bellied newts in the forest of redwoods or the family of deer at the pond where many birds converse, that was my favorite moment at Ratna Ling. Maybe the himalayan ponies near the upper pond with the surrounding stupas near the dharma publishing area were what stole my heart...Or the serenity that enveloped and brought sense back to my higher wisdom that held me in reverence of
my life? That I believe was the mystical elixir of it all...
From the morning sun peaking over the mountain tops to the rising full moon illumination casting enlightened love thru the land, there is peace for me at Ratna LIng.
