SKY Happiness

SKY Happiness Program supports individual and campus community happiness, social connection, and resilience so that students can achieve personal and professional success as compassionate and service-minded leaders of tomorrow. We partner with universities to design and implement scalable campus solutions, working with existing programming and structures to provide students and staff with practical tools and frameworks for greater personal resilience and growth, authentic social connections, and a deeper sense of meaning.

Neither at home nor at school are students taught how to deal with stress in healthy ways. Research suggests that proactive approaches to stress-reduction, enhanced social connection, and service-based engagement with community can significantly enhance health, happiness and quality of life for students.  Our innovative life-skills training programs combine breathwork and meditation with interactive discussions and experiential processes so students gain valuable skills to better navigate the personal, social, and academic landscape and pressures of college.
