OUR MISSION

The Youth Alliance for Mental Health (YAMH) supports people experiencing confinement through yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices and raises awareness about their mental health to cultivate well-being, balance, resilience, and community bonds.

YAMH is a global youth-run nonprofit organization.

Yoga, Mindfulness

and Meditation

OUR WORK

We share the healing practices of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices with the confined. We provide individualized, trauma-informed sessions to the vulnerable groups directly, whether in person or online - due to the inconveniences amidst the pandemic. In addition, with the hope of reaching and serving more people, YAMH provides resources, like guided mindfulness meditation sessions, on our website and on our Youtube channel.

Advocacy + Peer Education Awareness Raising

OUR WORK

We partner with mental health organization and schools to provide talks to youth around the world and raise awareness about mental health. We strive to destigmatize mental health issues and start conversations and dialogues. Also, we host conferences to share ways to look after one's mental health and invite guests speakers to talk and share their personal experiences as a means of empowerment.

YAMH grounds itself on research and evidence — on yoga, meditation, and mindfulness research studies, which show their physical and mental benefits. YAMH supports underpriviledged youth to cultivate mental and holistic wellness, through science-based approaches.
