About this Retreat

Your Guides

Details of this retreat

We welcome David Cho of San Francisco as our Guest Teacher for a weekend of grounding, relaxation, and community.

As the summer comes to a close, we feel the change of pace, and we are ready for new ventures or fresh routines. We gather together in late summer to reflect on our efforts and notice what is ready to harvest. We will focus our yoga practice on nurturing the body and mind after the hot months, cooling our body, mind and spirit to welcome the slower pace of Autumn.
Relax and recharge practicing Yoga and Meditation in a serene natural setting with like-minded friends. This retreat is suitable for all levels of practitioners. There will be plenty of free time to relax, read a book, go on a hike, meditate, and deepen relationships with yourself and others!

A testimonial from a past guest:
"David was outstanding! He was very accommodating and tailored the sessions to suit various levels."

COVID POLICY: For your safety and ours, we require that all guests be vaccinated against Covid and provide proof of a negative Covid test result within 48 hours of arrival.  We wish to provide peace of mind for all of our residents and guests.

Beautiful, Spacious, and Deeply Restorative
I just returned from my third retreat at Ratna Ling—and my second this year with my sister. It is such a peaceful, restorative place.

The retreats are gentle and spacious, with plenty of time for reflection, spending time in nature, hiking on the property or in the surrounding area, and simply enjoying the beautiful cabins. The teaching is led by experienced practitioners, with the content varying depending on the retreat, and the prepared food is absolutely delicious.

Ratna Ling is on the more relaxing end of the meditation-retreat spectrum. There is typically no work meditation, the retreats are not usually strictly silent, and the schedule is not overly dense. That makes it a wonderful experience for anyone looking to slow down, restore, and reconnect with themselves.

Review for Retreat Center
My third time there, I love the place. It is only 1 3/4 hrs away from my home, but I am in another world. When there I don't even WANT to go on the internet, though it is available. It was a great opportunity to break my habit and addiction to social media. The food is fantastic, the cottages are very comfortable, and every view out your window is refreshing. The staff are corgial, the grounds are well kept. I felt so cared for and comfortable on my solo retreat. I highly recommend Ratna Ling, and I will soon return.

The facilities and grounds are spacious, beautiful, peaceful, and unique. Food is wonderful; fresh and delicious. Accommodations are comfortable and well appointed.
