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.

There are moments—like this week—when the world feels like too much. You open the news and it hits before you can brace: airstrikes. university occupations. protest crackdowns. leaders falling. systems unraveling. And yet somehow, you’re still expected to reply to emails, make dinner, smile at strangers in the grocery store. The body knows something is wrong, even when we keep moving through our day. This past Saturday, just 90 minutes before teaching The Source Awakens, I was out walking my...
Hi Reader, Thanks to everyone who tuned in (or set an alarm!) for Thursday’s IG Live on the Gyrotonic Method and bone density. The questions were smart, the conversation was rich—and if you missed it, I’ve got you covered. 🎥 Here’s the replay: We talked about: Whether overhead work with the Wingmaster can replicate heavy lifting If jumping on the JSB with max resistance creates enough impact How much challenge is actually required to stimulate bone growth And most importantly: How do we layer...
My hands gripped the edges of the table as I took another breath and focused on relaxing the area beneath my left scapula. The needle bit into my skin, searing a path down my back as I exhaled slowly, keeping perfectly still while tension rippled through my body. Then ...Release. A magnificent flood of warmth spread across my system. The moment the needle lifted, my body melted. Relief washed through me like an internal tide, eclipsing the distress signals that had overwhelmed me just seconds...
