The SKY Happiness Retreat is an internationally acclaimed life-skills program that helps participants develop a relaxed, stress-free mind and an energetic, healthy body. The retreat teaches tools such as evidence-based meditation, yoga, breathwork and self-exploration in a fun and an experiential format. Join us ON ZOOM for a detox weekend!

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 Happiness Retreat significantly reduces stress, depression, and has a long-lasting impact on mental health, mindfulness, positive emotion and social connectedness. In 2025, over 100 students took the retreat at Rutgers, here is a testimonial from some of them.
A study by Harvard University found that participants of the SKY program developed better sleep quality & resiliency against anticipatory stress.
