On behalf of the entire team of SKY Campus Happiness at ODU, we would like to thank all of you for a wonderful semester and year with SKY and our chapter here at ODU.
As we wrap up this 2025-2026 academic year, it’s time to celebrate everything we’ve achieved together at SKY Campus Happiness at ODU. From mastering breathwork to building a supportive community, this has been an incredible year for student well-being on campus.
Our Year in Review:
- Flagship SKY Happiness Retreats: We successfully hosted several fully funded 3-day retreats this year, including our most recent session held from April 24–26.
- High-Impact Sessions: A major highlight was our March retreat, which featured a special session with Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishankar.
- Wellness & Fun: Beyond the retreats, we stayed connected through events like Mindfulness Bingo Night and our Peaceful Meditations to help recover from Spring Break Events
To our members walking across the stage this month: Congratulations! We are so proud of your dedication to both your academics and your personal well-being. As you transition into your next chapter, we hope you take the tools of mindfulness and resilience with you. You will always be a part of the SKY ODU family!
Finals Wishes & Staying Mindful:
As we head into final exams starting tomorrow into next week, remember to take a moment for yourself. We encourage everyone to keep using the Sudarshan Kriya (SKY) breath meditation techniques to stay grounded and focused during the late nights in Webb and Perry Library. You’ve got this!
A huge thank you to our student leadership team — Dakota, Somesh, Kyya, Elena, and most importantly Sharan — and to every one of you including our active community affiliates for being part of this mindful community. We will announce our new officers next semester. And again thanks; we are grateful and honoured to serve.
Also congrats to our recent SKY Retreat graduates and FL Leadership Trainees, including Dakota, Kyya, and Addie.
Stay happy, stay mindful, and good luck with your finals!
Best,
The SKY Campus Happiness Team at ODU.
