Groups and Programs

Who says recovery has to be dull, conventional? Add some natural excitement to your life! Weekend Wellness high-adventure experiences are included in the Potomac Pathways Aftercare programs for every student. And for something truly unique–Potomac Pathways includes a series of wellness retreats just for students in recovery! Deep relaxation and stress reduction guaranteed!

Weekend Wellness Outdoor Adventure Days

Prepare yourself for kayaking, sailing, rock-climbing, high-ropes course activities, whitewater rafting and much more! With professional instructors guiding you, you can feel free to take a risk for your own personal empowerment! All-natural excitement in an environment of support, friendship and sobriety! WOW!

Weekend Wellness Saturday Afternoons

You can expect to experience deep relaxation and learn skills to continue with stress reduction at home. We provide the wellness professionals and services—yoga for overcoming addictions, meditation for reducing stress and managing challenging emotions, West African drumming, Native American ceremonies, and more! All this and healthy food!

Family Retreats

Coming soon—day-long retreats for the whole family that involve parents and kids in fun and adventurous activities with a goal in mind: moving through obstacles, dissolving barriers, and creating a more united family system. These retreats will be a combination of the wellness retreats and the adventure programs. They will combine activities for relaxation and stress reduction, along with some experiential outdoor programming. Group work will provide an opportunity to improve and increase family communication, deepen relationships, and learn from other families’ experiences.
