SKY at Georgia Tech brings to you, its signature workshop, SKY Happiness Retreat. We envision a stress-free community where people can be happy and smiling irrespective of the circumstances around them.
The SKY Happiness Retreat is a 20-hour immersive, life-skills training and self-development program offered to thousands of students at more than 40 universities across the country, including Stanford, Ohio State, and MIT. Students gain stress-management and leadership skills, develop a personal daily breath-meditation practice, develop strategies for social connection, and engage in peer-driven service initiatives. Taught over 3 consecutive days, the retreat introduces the SKY meditation technique, a scientifically validated breathing practice that significantly increases one's well-being and calmness and reduces anxiety and stress markers. It's one of the coolest places to connect to yourself, make awesome friends and have fun!
Students all across the country have reported overcoming negative patterns, increasing self-esteem, better relationships and a sense of responsibility for themselves and the society. So jump into a stress-free life, right now!
