International Youth Day occurs annually on August 12th. This day was declared by the United Nations in 1985. It aims to remind the public of the importance of youth as a stage of life and it is celebrated all over the world. On International Youth Day, the youth are at the centre of our collective attention.
According to the Western European definition, the youth are boys and girls between 13 and 21. During this period of time, they go through adolescence – the process of finding their own identity – finish school, start a career and leave their parental homes to study, travel or work towards future goals. Due to all of the challenges of this period, the United Nations considers an annual International Youth Day relevant. More about the UN’s International Youth Day.
About our Free Meditation Workshops
Our meditation workshops will introduce you to the unique non-commercial Sahaja Yoga Meditation method which has an integrated yet simple approach for individuals to attain physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being.
The workshops will be facilitated by parents, carers and youth who have been practising meditation for many years. They will explain how meditation works and then guide you through simple meditation techniques which you can practise on your own or with us at our free weekly classes.
