Youth Empowerment Seminar Plus ( YES!+)
Clarity of Mind, Commitment, Concentration, Confidence
Traditionally the emphasis in education has been placed on academic achievement, yet the true measure of success in life is health, happiness, enthusiasm and the ability to deal effectively with life’s challenges. Students today face many challenges in the competing areas of their life: friends, family, academics, financial security and social acceptance. The culminating effects of all these pressures is an increase in stress levels as demonstrated through aggressive behavior, low self esteem, depression and/or anxiety. Recent studies shows that this stress not only inhibits learning, but may also result in lack of motivation and disengagement.
The Art of Living Foundation addresses these challenges through its Youth Empowerment Seminar Plus ( YES!+) by supporting the development of basic life skills in the areas of leadership development, conflict resolution, academic engagement, health awareness, and social responsibility. All Youth Empowerment Seminar Plus ( YES!+) Programs are geared towards managing negative emotions, fostering human values and developing a broader vision of life.
