SKY Happiness Retreat (September 12-14, 2025)
SKY Happiness Retreat is a total well-being training offered to thousands of university students, faculty, and staff across the country. Recent study at Yale University found that SKY Breath Meditation significantly reduces stress, depression, and has a long-lasting impact on mental health, mindfulness, positive emotion and social connectedness. The SKY Happiness Retreat introduces SKY Meditation, an evidence-based meditation practice integrated with breath work that can significantly increase one's well-being and calmness and reduce anxiety and stress markers. The course features interactive group processes, experiential learning, emotional intelligence training, breathwork, and evidence-based meditation. It's a place to connect with yourself, make new friends, and most importantly, have fun.
