UNESCO Youth World Peace Day

Name: UNESCO Youth World Peace Day
Start: 2022-09-24T12:00:00-04:00
End: 2022-09-25T12:00:00-04:00

September 24, 2022 @ 12:00 pm – September 25, 2022 @ 12:00 pm

The idea is to realize one’s true potential and the resources available within, which in turn, can particularly help youth face and solve the problems they are facing. Today’s youth are tomorrow’s leaders and now is the time to act to strengthen them emotionally, mentally and physically.

UNESCO Body & Mind Wellness Club (UNESCO BMW), in collaboration with Sahaja Yoga Meditation (SYM) and Hood College, is pleased to offer a 2-day online program entitled “Life Improvement through Self Awareness” for this September 24 and 25 at 12:00 PM EST. We offer a free 90-minute session for these two consecutive days in September to include college age adults on how to monitor their inner state of being.

The vision for UNESCO Youth World Peace Day

The idea is to realize one’s true potential and the resources available within us, which can help us face and solve the problems our youth are facing.

Today’s youth are tomorrow’s leaders, and now is the time to act to strengthen them emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Youth Problems & Remedy Technics

In light of the unsettling reality that our youth are going through, our program will focus on youth issues such as mental health, social media use/misuse, bullying, etc. This instructional program will be free of charge and includes an introduction to youth issues followed by a guided inner check-in that includes a targeted guest speaker, music, and a Q&A session.
This program is a part of UNESCO BMW’s greater initiatives. This program’s objective is for each participant to experience a state of mental silence as a gateway to stress relief and inner peace in order to face everyday problems.

If you are interested in free mentor sessions after this program, individual or group setting, please send an email to info@unescobmw.org including the name of the mentor you would like to get in touch with. They would help you to further your self-awareness in various ways long after the program finishes and answer any questions you may have
