Chitkara University

Before discovering the SAVERS routine, I felt lost in my own life—constantly overwhelmed, unfocused, and stuck in a cycle of wanting change but never knowing how to create it. My days lacked direction, and I struggled to build the habits I knew I needed. But once I committed to SAVERS—Silence, Affirmations, Visualization, Exercise, Reading, and Scribing—everything started to shift.

It gave me structure, but more than that, it gave me clarity. I began each morning grounded and focused, and for the first time in a long time, I felt in control. I became more disciplined, more intentional, and more connected to the person I wanted to be. Reading became a joy, not a chore, and my mindset grew stronger each day.

The transformation wasn’t just in my routine—it was in me. SAVERS didn’t just help me build better habits; it helped me find myself again read more

My Experience with the Happiness Centre 😊

When I joined university, I was honestly very stressed. I used to feel alone and had a big fear of speaking in front of people or on stage. I would avoid situations where I had to talk in front of others, and everything felt overwhelming at first.

But then I joined the Happiness Centre — and it changed everything for me. It didn’t feel like just a place for activities, it felt like a family. The team there supported me, counseled me, and helped me come out of my shell. They taught me to be myself and not to fear judgment.

Slowly, I started building confidence. I learned a lot — from communication and leadership to networking and making social connections. They gave me so many chances to volunteer in different events, which helped me grow even more read more

Before joining the Happiness Centre, I was going through a tough time. I looked fine from the outside, but inside I felt confused, tired, and a little lost. I didn’t know how to deal with my emotions or talk about what I was feeling. But everything started to change after I became a part of the Happiness Centre.

I found a place where I felt safe, heard, and accepted just the way I am. Slowly, I started smiling again—genuinely. The sessions, the activities, and the people here helped me open up and understand myself better. I learned that it's okay to feel low and that I don’t have to hide my emotions. I became more confident, peaceful, and full of hope.

The Happiness Centre became a second home to me—a place that helped me heal and grow. I’m truly grateful for this beautiful journey and the transformation it brought read more

I’m Ishika, and before joining the Happiness Centre, I was in a very different place. I used to overthink everything. I wasn’t focused, I didn’t have any clarity about my life, and I had no idea about what I wanted to do in the future. I didn’t know my interests, my talents, or even what I was truly capable of. Deep down, I knew I was lost and completely out of track. I was just going with the flow without any direction.

Everything started to change when I became a part of the Happiness Centre. I got the opportunity to work under two amazing mentors – Manav Sir and Kiran Ma’am – who guided me, supported me, and stood by me through every step of my journey. They didn’t just help me professionally, but also shaped my personal growth.

Being here helped me discover so much about myself. I realized that I love working with people, managing teams, and taking responsibilities read more

Before becoming a part of the Happiness Center, I often found myself overwhelmed by the fast pace of student life and the pressure to constantly perform. There was little time to pause, reflect, or truly understand my emotions. I was seeking a space that encouraged personal growth and emotional well-being.

Joining the Happiness Center has been a transformative experience. It offered not only a supportive environment but also practical tools and activities that helped me develop greater self-awareness, resilience, and a balanced mindset.

Today, I am honored to serve as a Managing Team Member and Social Media Team Member at the center. In these roles, I contribute to planning and executing wellness initiatives, managing student engagement, and spreading awareness about the importance of mental and emotional health.
