SKY Happiness Retreat

The SKY Happiness Retreat is a nationally acclaimed, 12-hour, three-session wellness retreat that teaches science-backed breathwork and meditation to reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and increase clarity and energy. SKY at UF is offering the Happiness Retreat on September 26-28 completely free for faculty and staff, thanks to Student Government funding. This nationally acclaimed program has benefited over 3000 members of the UF community, and featured in TIME magazine and a Harvard Business Review. Spots are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis through an application process, with full attendance required.
Taught live by certified facilitators from the International Association for Human Values (IAHV), the program is offered at 150 universities across the U.S. and is designed for beginners with no prior experience required. Across three sessions participants learn the SKY Breath Meditation, mindful awareness practices, and simple daily habits that fit into a busy schedule. Participants leave with a take-home practice and practical well-being tools.
