About this trip
Are you looking to take your recovery to the next level? Return to Grace: Autumn Self-Care & Renewal in York Harbor is a personal growth retreat for recovering women, facilitated by Kathy Robbins, MSW, LICSW, CCPC, PCC, SRCD and MaryBeth Litchfield-Murphy, BSN, RN-NC, CPRC, SRCD.
Kathy and MaryBeth are professionals in women's recovery and wellness, and both in long-term recovery themselves. This is your opportunity to gather with like-minded/hearted women for self-care, connection, renewal and to be in circle to nourish the feminine spirit. Mornings will be spent in group with guided activities and exercises; afternoons and evenings are free to enjoy outdoor walks by the sea, hiking and sightseeing; tea & conversation on the porch or inside, in a cozy seating area.
A special Labyrinth Ceremony will be a part of this retreat. Evening sharing circles will complete each day around a backyard bonfire or in one of the charming common areas. Explore recovery with experienced guidance in gorgeous York Harbor, Maine at the Varrell House, a beautiful, historic home just a short walk to York Harbor beach.

Between 1890 and 1910, Gilded Age tycoons arrived and built rambling summer cottages along the seaside cliffs. Today York Harbor is a thriving year-round community and with it's gorgeous waterfront steps from Varrel House, is a beautiful setting for this retreat.
