Rest & Recharge
a self guided weekend away october 27-30, 2022
Join us at Aldermarsh Retreat Center on Whidbey Island for a change to disconnect from your daily life and reconnect to rhythms of rest, play, movement, and nature.
This is a self guided retreat with no programming. Truly a chance to get what you need. Come center yourself on this beautiful piece of land.
The physical space at Aldermarsh is stunning. Gardens, fields, and nooks crannies are all yours to explore. For those seeking more contained space, your rooms will provide quiet solitude. The human space will be held for you by two local therapists. Jodi Bagge and Jessie Murray are graduates of The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology. Good friends, who have a passion for gathering groups and cultivating conversation, they will be present for the entirety of the retreat for questions, conversation, or guided retreat ideas. Jodi and Jessie are both playful artists and understand the need to disconnect ourselves to find ourselves again.
