It serves as a platform for visibility and helps facilitate changes in their preconceived notions about counselling and to end the stigma attached to mental health. Psycho-education sessions are a way to build a comfortable space in a new environment. The main objective is to empower students to handle new phases of life, create awareness of life skills and discuss youth-relevant topics such as managing time, coping with stress, relationships, self-esteem, body image, resilience and addictions. The current probe is designed to assess the awareness of life skills among first-year undergraduate students imparted through Psycho-education sessions to cope better with university life. Modules are designed in such a way that life skills are imparted in a supportive environment. Participatory methods were used. The data analysis showed an improvement in adjusting well to campus culture. The interventions after that led to a surge in the number of students approaching the counsellors for personal counselling. Additional research needs to be undertaken on life skills in higher education, which is apparent from the fact that most universities have no counsellors, and less importance is given to the student's well-being and mental health. 2025 selection and editorial matter, Kennedy Andrew Thomas, Joseph Chacko Chennattuserry and Joseph Varghese Kureethara; individual chapters, the contributors.
