After more than a decade performing with The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’s house band under Louis Cato and Jon Batiste, Lampley steps forward with Notes To Self, his second solo album, a personal project that pairs reflective songwriting with the joy and communal spirit that define his approach.

Settle into a soothing blend of Yin Yoga and Reiki that invites deep rest and inner balance. This session gently calms the nervous system and supports the body from within. In Yin, participants linger in floor-based shapes for several minutes at a time, focusing on the cooler connective tissues such as tendons, ligaments, and fascia. The unhurried holds apply light pressure around the hips, pelvis, and lower back to encourage circulation and comfortable mobility, with restorative postures included for complete support and ease. During these quiet pauses, Reiki is offered through calm presence or a gentle touch, helping to release tension and energetic blockages, ease stress and anxious thoughts, and restore a natural sense of equilibrium. The experience becomes a meditative practice rather than simple stretching, leaving you grounded, spacious, and renewed. Guided by Laura Johnson, with the option to participate in studio or online.

Settle into a quiet sonic immersion led by Jenna Morgan, featuring the resonant tones of crystal singing bowls. The session opens with a brief guided meditation and gentle breathwork to help you arrive, then shifts into a fully restful practice where you recline on a mat with bolsters and blankets for complete support. For 30 to 45 minutes, layered harmonics fill the room, inviting the nervous system to unwind and the mind to ease into a calm, meditative state that supports clarity and whole-body renewal. As the vibrations move through, you may notice a subtle inner hum or a dreamlike sense of spaciousness while tension and stagnant energy melt away. Many participants leave feeling lighter, grounded, and deeply refreshed. To prepare, wear comfortable layers and consider warm socks, since body temperature can drop during deep relaxation. Mats, blankets, and bolsters are available, and you are welcome to bring a pillow, eye mask, or a favorite blanket to make your resting space extra cozy. Jenna is a sound healer and yogi who blends crystal bowl vibrations with her voice to craft intentional soundscapes that encourage stillness, surrender, and self-discovery. Guided by the idea that love is a powerful healing frequency, her approach invites a softening of the heart, a remembrance of innate wholeness, and a deep reconnection with inner harmony. She is also in the process of completing her World Peace Yoga Teacher Certification.
