The retreat is co-ed and limited to 12 Veterans. Veterans sleep in shared quarters in a spacious bunk room in the Hostel. Males and females will have separate sleeping quarters.
*Ear plugs available

We encourage you to sign up for this Retreat with a “Battle Buddy,” a Brother or Sister you’ve served with who could also benefit from this unique healing experience.



LOCATION: The Human-Nature Hostel is located in Maine's most pristine mountainous region, where rivers, lakes, hiking trails, summits, waterfalls and hidden gems are abundant. This location and experience will give each of us the opportunity to decompress and share in the camaraderie with our fellow warriors. Simply immersing ourselves in Nature offers a much more affective way of healing our inner selves, and sometimes all it takes is sitting around a fire on the mountain under a celestial starry night, reminiscing with a band of brothers & sisters.

What people are saying about W.A.R. Warriors' Awakening Retreat-

“A few short weeks ago I wasn’t sure how to help my best friend, my soul mate & the man I married. After 23 years of service, PTSD, retirement, loss of both his parents (6 days apart) multiple injuries and surgeries, Brian (My husband) was at his lowest. A place so dark that I was afraid. Brian posted on facebook as a last call for help, and three amazing friends blessed us by sponsoring Brian to attend the “Warriors Awakening Retreat,” at the Human Nature Hostel in Roxbury, Maine. 


The atmosphere and location was a huge benefit as nature is a healing tool within itself. Because of this retreat and your fellow partners, my husband has done a 180 degree turn-a-round & continues to grow everyday, using the methods he learned from ya’ll since his return. You have given him a sense of self worth and healing that he would not have found had he not been on the retreat. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Anyone that is struggling or knows of anyone that maybe struggling may talk to my husband for his testimony and how much it helped him. “ -Tara Daniels Reed, Army wife.
