A Retreat with Lori Maher at Limina Renewal Center, Searsport, ME

I would be honored to have you join me at the Bartlett Village House for the Somatic Woman Retreat.  I am excited to offer my fall 2026 Retreat at this beautiful renovated Victorian home nestled in the White Mountains of NH. There is historic beauty and charm to this home, with just the right modern updates. 
The White Mountains have long been known for their natural beauty. We will discover spectacular scenery, freshwater rivers, and picturesque towns. The home is 3 stories of living space and has 7 guestrooms and 3.5 baths. There is a private backyard within walking distance to the Saco River and nearby hiking trails. Meals are served in the formal dining room and a cozy fire will be burning in the living room.

Think cozy gatherings with like-minded women! 
 

When we take time away from our daily pressures and distractions, we can allow ourselves the time and space, for deep healing through a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. We are able to allow ourselves to explore and rediscover our true selves. Somatic Woman is a deep healing retreat. It is about coming home to yourself. It is about listening to your body. Trusting its wisdom, listening to its signals, and feeling safe within. Grace Within. 

We will explore the body's sensations, feelings and emotions. We will practice gentle yoga. You will enjoy sound healings. We will spend a good deal of time in nature. This will all help your nervous system regulate and calm. You will  deepen your connection with the Self, increase self-awareness, practice being present, and heal on a deeper level. We will explore our physical, energetic, and emotional bodies through movement (yoga, breathwork, and meditation). You will learn Chinese Medicine principles about the Fall elements and how our bodies respond in the season. We will explore nature through forest walks, and fireside drumming circles.  You will learn emotion releasing techniques and nervous system regulation. Understanding your body and energy, as well as how to protect and maintain your energy, are the first steps to living a healthy life. Join us, and experience the connection and community my retreaters have cherished.

Retreat Dates: October 23rd - October 26th, 2026. Friday to Monday. Check in at 3pm Friday,and check out after Lunch on Monday. Prices include accommodations, meals plus snacks, and full program.

TESTIMONIALS 

​​​​​

Lori’s yoga retreat at Limina in Maine was truly outstanding. Lori’s love
and warmth creates a calming and safe space that sets the tone for the
retreat. The location and facility are serene, peaceful and full of
delightful treasures to discover everywhere you look. Plenty of indoor
and outdoor space to either connect with other like-minded women or
be in solitude. I had never experienced a retreat and it was a “treat” to
be with other women who are finding their way through life and the
challenges that it brings. I thought it was the ultimate self-care
weekend. It has been two months since the retreat and I am still feeling
the grounding and peace that I tapped into. I look forward to returning
next year! Thank you Lori, Jen and the people who run Limina. -Shirley

I had the pleasure of attending State of Grace Limina Retreat in September. This was one of the most amazing experiences of my life!!
Steeped in the sense of comfort and safety emanating from the people around me, I immediately felt at ease and free to be and express myself. The bond formed with new friends was instantaneous, that was a miraculous experience in itself in today’s busy world. At Limina, I reconnected with my inner self, with the earth, nature and my ‘in the now’ surroundings. I am so grateful for the beautiful journey, the people I met, the guidance and openness from Lori. It’s so nice to take a deep breath and be in the now, broadening your mind and learning/remembering how to use the tools and energy that we all have within us to harmonize our bodies and mind. You learn to live yoga off your mat and make it a part of your everyday being.
Limina is the most picturesque setting you can imagine, the smell of the ocean and forest entwined is so peaceful and calming. The people at Limina were the most gracious hosts, very friendly, amazing chefs with heathy, hearty meals and snacks which were delicious. The resort is so homely, elegant and comfortable. You do feel like you are at home and surrounded with warmth.
This was a magical, heavenly experience throughout , I am so grateful I was a part and this beautiful retreat. Absolutely outstanding! - Michelle

Lori at State of Grace recently hosted a retreat at Limina, a beautiful retreat center in Searsport Maine (https://liminarenewal.com/). It was perfect from Day 1 - with the opportunities for yoga, learning, sharing, quiet time, journaling and the food there was the best I have ever had while on retreat. Lori brough several modalities to the sessions and she was also flexible in terms of being able to read the ebb and flow of the participants' energy and adjust here and there. It was pure joy and bliss.- Audrey

Lori, with the Limina team, created a perfect program for all to unplug and immerse ourselves in a relaxation and renewal experience. I enjoyed the connection with others and my own physical, mental and spiritual journey. Months later I still notice an improvement in my emotional health, creativity. and focus. The location and program was a perfect way to restore balance. I am already excited to join the next retreat. I highly recommend! - Pamela
