If I Could Turn Back Time
|
Do you ever have those fleeting moments where it feels like you are living outside of space and time? When you’re lost in creative flow, or consumed by a passion project? Or even just as you wake up in the morning Reader —suspended in the strange in-between, your dream-self dissolving as the aches of your body and the weight of the world settle in. How many times have you wished you could live in an alternate timeline? One where your body didn’t hurt, where circumstances unfolded differently, where you could try again with the knowledge you have now? Here’s the truth: Our experience of linear time is tied to gravity. As long as we’re in these bodies—on this spinning planet—we’re bound to the passage of time. We can’t rewind… but we can repair. And in many cases, we can restore. I just returned from two weeks away and witnessed what that short gap in care did for some of my long-time clients. Back pain crept back in. Tight shoulders turned into tension headaches. A locked ankle caused a cascade of restrictions up the entire chain. One client, recovering from a hip replacement, had been working with me weekly. In my absence, her lower back pain worsened so dramatically that her doctor suggested she might have disc compression—then added that it might just be part of recovery and to wait it out. I scheduled an extra session with her. One session. Afterward, she was 90% back to normal. This is what I mean when I talk about turning back time: Bodies decline without care—but they can also respond quickly to the right kind of attention. Not just fitness, but intelligent, integrative upkeep. 🌀 “Domini doesn’t just treat what hurts—she speaks to the whole system, helps it reorganize, and makes space for vitality to return.” — Nicki When your system is re-tuned, function returns. Energy flows. And you remember what it feels like to move with ease—not like a younger version of yourself in some nostalgic way, but like a body in present time that is fully alive and responsive. 🎥 FREE VIDEO: Restore + Revitalize Your Lower Body If your legs feel heavy, your hips tight, your low back compressed… This 13-minute routine is for you. It’s a short, gentle, no-equipment sequence I taught during the J.E.D.I. Spine Tricks Trilogy in Seattle, designed to: * effortlessly restore mobility to the legs, hips, and lower back * stimulate lymphatic drainage, decreasing swelling and inflammation * increase circulation and overall energy flow * reconnect you to your body’s innate resilience Let it be your reset button. Bodies age. But they don’t have to deteriorate. What we attribute to “getting older” is often just the physical equivalent of a cluttered inbox: too many unresolved messages, not enough cleanup. This work—somatic, structural, breath-centered—is the cleanup. It’s the reset. And yes, it’s how we turn back time. If you’d like support, I offer in-person sessions in Carmel, CA as well as online private sessions for clients anywhere in the world. Reply to this email if you’re curious—I’d be happy to chat.

If March comes in like a lion, January feels more like a bear after hibernation… or maybe the crusty, mildly confused groundhog, blinking into the light and wondering what year it is. After the inevitably intense “end-of-year slide to the finish line,” many of us arrive here a little slower, a little creakier, and quietly eager to smooth out the internal — and sometimes external — lumps and bumps that keep us from feeling that “new year, new you” buoyancy in our step. Maybe by the time this...
My brother came down from Canada late Friday night with three young children in tow. After loading their suitcases, my two nieces and nephew slid into the back seat and the commentary started immediately. “This car is SUPER messy,” noted my six-year-old niece. “Totally,” I replied. “I’ve been doing a big art project for the past two months and haven’t had any time to clean it.” “I think the only person with a messier car than this is my Dad,” observed Zadie (with all the wisdom her twelve...
Hello friends, I made a short video tonight instead of writing ( because sewing won out) Two brief updates, and then the real reason for this message. First: Iluminado has been open just over a week, and a beautiful review came out in Monterey County Weekly. The piece reflects what we hoped the installation would do — invite people into an experience that’s participatory, immersive, and quietly transformational. If you’re local, I hope you’ll take some time to experience it at the Monterey...
