Energy for What is Better

If it is better for me to be ill,
Give me the energy to be ill.

If it is better for me to recover,
Give me the energy to recover.

If it is better for me to die,
Give me the energy to die.

Lotus Center Community Service . . .

Yoga in Public Schools (“YIPS”) is a project of Lotus Center, which began during the 2017/18 school year. Our mission for YIPS is to bring secular yoga classes, as part of their Physical Education curriculum, to public schools in Grant County. Thus far, Lotus instructors have taught yoga to students at Bayard Elementary, San Lorenzo Elementary, La Plata Middle, Guadalupe Elementary, Cliff, Silver High, Snell Middle, and Jose Barrios Elementary schools. YIPS is part of Lotus Center’s community service program, and is provided at no cost to the schools or the students.
