To backtrack… What is the YES+ ?
YES+ provides us with tools to manage our stress and energy levels, leading us to a more happy, fulfilled, and meaningful life. This workshop has been taught in over 100 universities around the world and at corporate institutions such as Google and the World Bank. Here’s what you’ll learn:
– Success without Stress – Think that success and stress go hand in hand? Research shows that we are more productive and creative without high levels of stress. YES+ provides empirically validated tools for decreased stress.
– Energy  – Learn unique meditation and breathing techniques to recharge and boost your efficiency.
– Focus & Relaxation  – Find out how to achieve a relaxed and focused state of mind so you can live in the present moment and get things done without the jitters
– Empowerment  – Learn how the mind works and how you can pursue your goals while being happy and fulfilled.
– Connection & Service – Make some of the most meaningful connections you’ve made on campus and understand how making a differences impacts your well-being
Excited yet?! Find out more about the course on this linked page. This semester we are having two sessions of the workshop: 12-15 October and 19-22 October.
On the volunteering end, we will going to the Moral Welfare home every first Saturday of the month. Find out the details here.

It was the Last Sunday of 2013 i.e. 29th Dec 2013. The Clock Ticked 5:00PM. Everyone was excited!! Why???
It was time for the YES!+ Rendezvous!!
The beautiful evening unfolded with blissful smiles. Adam (Our Rocking YES!+ Teacher) started off with some interesting games – a lot of running around, chasing and team work! Everyone gave their 100% and with lots of laughter
Soon after this we brushed up on 5 sutras in a very interesting way… Kudos to the organizing team for getting the sutras explained with some amazing pictures explaining the sutras.
Soon, how could we miss hearing to our very own BAWA! There was a knwoledge sheet videos from him for us… thoroughly enjoyable and delivered like only Bawa can!
We winded up our session with Dinner with mouthwatering dishes(we won’t reveal here :P)
