After three successful retreats earlier this semester and over summer, the SKY registered student organization is delighted to announce the next online SKY Meditation Retreat offered in collaboration with SKY Club at the University of Washington for U of A faculty and staff Dec. 3-5. The retreat is part of the SKY Campus Happiness program! This program is being offered complementary for faculty/staff.

The retreat offers an in-depth experience of effortless meditation, breath work, yoga and more. SKY (Sudarshan Kriya Yoga) Meditation uses cyclical, rhythmic patterns of breath to easily bring the mind and body into a state of meditation. Research has shown that SKY may reduce depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress and addictive behaviors. It significantly increases feelings of well-being, optimism and mental focus and improves emotion regulation (research on SKY Meditation and Psychology Today article).

Program Description

• Learn a powerful evidence-based meditation that allows your mind to be clear and calm.
