YES! Camp Overview
Ages 14-17

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. 
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.”
- Marianne Williamson

In the Art of Living's YES! Summer Camp teens between the ages of 14 and 17 get the opportunity to spend 10 days in a stress-free environment in which to participate in the Youth Empowerment Seminar (YES!), one aspect of the Art of Living’s multi-pronged approach to effectively eliminate stress, violence, aggression, and lack of academic interest in today’s youth.

In combination with summer camp activities (music, hiking, arts and crafts, etc), youth learn powerful tools to calm their minds, channel their energy, and become inspired to take responsibility for themselves and their community. These stress-management tools include powerful breathing techniques, yoga, and a unique rhythmic breathing program, Sudarshan Kriya™, cognized by the Art of Living’s Founder, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

Shares Annelies Richmond, present at the 2006 camp: “The YES! Camp served as a showcase of what the Art of Living provides youth – a powerful sense of belonging, an experience of one’s full potential, and direction in how to channel this feeling of being stress-free into making a difference in one’s community.
