The chaos of the last two years, adjusting to online teaching and learning, social isolation, and other challenges of a global pandemic have made it ever more challenging for students and college employees to find inner peace during this time.  As we see stress, other types of mental health decline, and violence increasing around us - this is a paramount call to action.

You are invited to represent your campus at this important event: an interactive session on managing the mind and building emotional resilience from a world-renowned humanitarian and global peace leader, Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. The event also includes meditation, wisdom and Q&A.

About the speaker



Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is a global humanitarian, spiritual leader and peace envoy who has been teaching breath-based meditation techniques for health and well-being for more than 40 years to millions of people across 156+ countries.

Gurudev’s approach blends ancient Vedic wisdom with modern sensibility for a new paradigm of leadership to approach collective resilience through reducing individual stress and trauma.  Research from Yale University has shown increased indicators of well-being among students who have learned and practiced the SKY techniques<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnews.yale.edu%2F2020%2F07%2F27%2Fimprove-students-mental-health-yale-study-finds-teach-them-breathe&data=05%7C01%7C%7C7127e300eaf84d486e8008da48164f71%7C02d8ff38d7114e31a9156cb5cff788df%7C0%7C0%7C637901557926973181%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=i4fCCvxKSSvnFrxyLHTygblzy6y6JDeW1yRYfhtsh2E%3D&reserved=0>. He is an icon of non-violence and seeks global peace through service and fostering human values.

He has progressed peace in conflict-impacted areas such as Sri Lanka, Iraq, Venezuela and Colombia. As a tireless ambassador of Peace, Gurudev has delivered his message of peace to the United Nations, The European Parliament, The World Economic Forum, as well as universities such as Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Georgetown, and the University of Southern California.

How a society in itself cannot be literate without increasing the literacy of individuals, neither can a society in itself be peaceful, without each individual being able to sustain inner peace.
