Preservation Hall is a humble, much-loved room dedicated to keeping the past and future of jazz alive. It’s a well-worn, well-loved space that’s physically small but spiritually huge. People from around the globe make pilgrimages to it, and this fall, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band is embarking on a pilgrimage of its own: a nationwide tour to celebrate the Hall’s 60th anniversary. The band’s mission remains focused on initiating audiences into the ineffable, almost religious experience of channeling their ancestors through the music and culture they’ve inherited from them. “Touring is a part of our ritual,” Ben Jaffe, creative director of Preservation Hall, adds. “It’s our tradition. When my parents began touring with the band in the early 60s, they were bringing something that most people didn’t even know existed to stages all over the world. It was this magnificent revelation to people that something so beautiful could even exist. People come to Preservation Hall and have transformative experiences, and that’s part of our mission: to go out in the world and make that experience available to people. Follow on Socials!

Connect & Glow is a free event series featuring guided meditation accompanied by live music by Kate Moody, Christ Lutheran Church's Music Coordinator, hosted in Wright Chapel on the CLC campus in Pacific Beach. The Connect & Glow meditative exercises are inspired by ancient Eastern wisdom and modern quantum physics as a path of healing and well-being, addressing topics such as forgiveness, releasing anxiety, inner guidance, and more. The class concept originated around experiments with visualizing the energetic stimulation of the limbic center of the brain, in an effort to heal depression. This event is suitable for beginning as well as seasoned practicers of meditation.

Join Alliant International University for a presentation focusing on a holistic perspective on health and well-being based on science and practice and look at research around the “nine variables of wellness” through an occupational lens.  For over two years, the world has been in a state of uncertainty, caused by a global pandemic, war, divisiveness and climate change – just to name a few factors. We are now at a critical juncture as we figure how to live and adjust to living with the uncertainty of what lies in the future. It is all the more important that we look at mental, physical and social well-being in a holistic way – including in the workplace. In order to cultivate a true culture of well-being, we must go beyond "drink water, exercise, sleep" interventions. For example, research indicates that you can spend an hour every day at the gym but if you then sit in front of the computer for another 6-8 hours, the exercise benefits are negated.
