Hello, Roula here!

Thank you for taking an interest in YZness. I just wanted to say a few words about YZness and its many initiatives.

It’s simple…

What do kids need today? A question each and every parent faces before, during and even after having a child. In fact, and since it might seem like a broad question, why don’t we tackle the matter from another perspective…

What don’t they need anymore?
Rush? Competitive learning? Infatuated information? Brainwash? Anxiety? Excessive Tech and gadgets? Classification and prejudgments? And then the list goes even longer…

Kids today are bombarded with unnecessary and mostly harmful information. They are being stripped from their innate qualities and raw talents while being shaped into squares of preset boxes.

The system is set. They need to constantly adapt and run faster in order to catch up or else, they’ll be easily excluded, misjudged and labeled.

Today, children need more freedom in all its shapes and forms, especially the freedom of speech and expression.
They need values.
They need to have role models they can count on and look up to, now more than ever.
They need to journey through the mind, body and soul on a daily basis.
They need as much art as possible, on top of everything else most probably.

One thing is for sure, it is clear by now that what they need is a firm circle of coherence around emotional support, artistic healing and spiritual growth.
And under a massive keyword, WISDOM… What ever happened to worldwide wisdom?
And this is where it all began. It was a simple observation of a single modern-day kid that immediately led us to ring an alerting bell and start working. Something is to be done, immediately…

Let’s make a positive change together!
