Details of this retreat

Gather with us for a weekend retreat where yoga, breathwork, and sound come together to evoke deep harmony and resonance within.
Together we will move through therapeutic asanas and breath-work that draw our attention inward, release tension in our physical bodies, and open energetic pathways. Using crystal bowls, vocals, and other resonant instruments, we will create soundscapes and chanting experiences that evoke quietness of mind, inner connection, and resounding space in the heart.
Combining yoga therapeutics, breathwork, and sound amplifies the resonance of the each practice, elevating the benefits. The same holds true for your retreat leaders. Over the last five years Harvey and Teresa have collaborated on numerous events, workshops, trainings, and retreats. Their unique individual gifts elevating one another’s and their shared dedication to yoga and seva, selfless service, striking deep inner resonance between them.

A beautiful and inviting setting for a weekend of introspection and relaxation
I attended Ratna Ling Retreat Center for a weekend group retreat focused on finding joy. The center is beautiful and well worth the drive from San Francisco. The facilities were clean and inviting and the staff was welcoming and created a peaceful environment. There are many treasures on the retreat grounds, including Redwood circles and an oak and Redwood tree that have joined to grow as one. Wild turkeys, woodpeckers and many other birds can be found throughout the grounds. We also received a special treat as the leaves on the Japanese Maples were bright pink, creating an absolutely stunning sight. I left feeling refreshed, more connected to myself and nature and inspired. I will be returning many times to Ratna Ling.
