In collaboration with the SKY club at the University of California, San Francisco, SKY@UofA RSO is delighted to announce the online SKY Happiness Retreat offered for faculty, staff and students of U of A from Feb 18-20. 

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).
