SUMMARY:The Cosmic Connection During the Winter Solstice: An Inner Journey to the Roots of Light - Dec 2026
DESCRIPTION:You’re Invited!\n\nKetamine acts as a gentle solvent for the rigid\, everyday ego. By lifting the heavy veil of daily anxieties and repetitive thought loops\, this evidence-based medicine allows your consciousness to safely expand.\n\nFloating in the velvety\, vast architecture of a deeply supported medicine state\, the boundaries of your personal history soften. Here\, in the cosmic darkness\, participants frequently experience a profound sense of unity—a direct\, felt understanding that they are woven into the very fabric of existence.\n\nIt is within this stillness that you meet your Inner Healer: the primordial\, unshakeable spark of consciousness that knows exactly how to mend\, how to integrate\, and how to bloom when the season turns.\n\nWe invite you into a space of healing\, creativity\, and connection. This group Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) retreat—hosted by Art of Counseling in collaboration with Dr. Becca Lenz\, APRN\, DNP\, PMHNP-BC\, AGNP-BC\, PAT-C of Merkaba Integrative Psychiatry—is designed to help you slow down\, tune inward\, and experience the restorative power of community.\n\nAt Art of Counseling\, we believe healing happens when we feel seen\, supported\, and connected. Alongside Becca’s clinical expertise and compassionate presence\, this retreat combines ketamine medicine with grounding practices\, creative exploration\, and shared reflection. Together\, we create space for insight\, release\, and renewal. \nWhether you are a caregiver\, therapist\, healer\, or simply someone longing for deeper self-understanding\, this retreat offers a chance to pause\, reconnect with yourself\, and carry that clarity forward into your everyday life. \n*this is a NON-RESIDENTIAL retreat \nWhat you can expect:\n\nArt therapy practices that support both preparation and integration of your experience.\nMind-body awareness through gentle movement\, meditation\, and somatic practices.\nA supportive medicine session held within the safety of the community and skilled facilitation.\nOpportunities for reflection through journaling\, creative expression\, and group dialogue.\nContinued integration during an online circle the week after the retreat.\n\nSchedule\nOn December 19th\, you are invited to step out of the frantic holiday rush and into a sacred sanctuary. The Cosmic Connection is an intimate\, clinically supervised\, day-long Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) Retreat that mirrors the cosmic cycle of the solstice: a deliberate descent into the quiet subconscious to discover the unshakeable light waiting within you. \nFriday\, December 18th @ 6:30 pm | Virtual\n\nWelcome and orientation\nPreparation for medicine day\nCommunity sharing\n\nSaturday\, December 19th @ 8:45 AM–5:30 PM | In-person at Art of Counseling (Gathering Ground Collective room 360)\n\nMedical check-in\nMorning grounding practices & community circle\nMedicine session\nLunch break (provided)\nCreative integration & movement activities\nClosing circle\n\nTuesday\, December 22nd @ 6 PM | Virtual\n\nVirtual integration circle\n\nCost & Registration\nRetreat Cost\n$450 per person (Early bird discount of $375\, ends Nov 19th) \nAre you ready to journey to the roots of light?
