A Relaxation Retreat For The Nervous System
at Ratna Ling Retreat Center in Sonoma County, California
February 6-8, 2026
Almost Sold Out!!
Come rest, reconnect, and remember who you are beneath the noise.
In a world that rewards overdoing, it can feel nearly impossible to slow down. We push through stress, ignore what our bodies are telling us, and stay stuck in survival mode. Eventually, something gives and we realize we can’t keep living this way.
This weekend is your chance to step away from all of that. To exhale. To feel calm again. Together, we’ll slow down through restorative yoga, Yoga Nidra, nervous system-informed movement, and a special Tibetan meditation session to help you work with your thoughts and quiet your mind.
Practical nervous system teachings are woven into each session so your learning becomes embodied. A deeply calming massage can be added on to support full relaxation.
You’ll leave feeling grounded, nourished, and more like yourself, with simple tools to support your nervous system long after the retreat ends.
You don’t have to earn your rest. You just have to reclaim the space to receive it.
