This intimate 3 ½ day retreat focuses on personal and professional self-awareness growth using the exploration and creation (the lens) of mandalas (the circle). Through the use of a variety of art mediums to create mandalas, participation in peer and clinical supervision, songwriting, musical improvisation, and responsive music listening, retreatants will investigate their thoughts and feelings in context with their creative expressions. 

Participants will be able to list the effects of 3 musical elements or musical experiences that may be contraindicated or harmful to clients. Participants will choose a minimum of 2 created mandalas for which they will seek and receive peer and clinical supervision. and identify at least 1 area of self-awareness growth for which they will create a 6 month action plan.
