hi, I’m Dom.

MY JOURNEY

I want to start off by saying I’m not some baby Buddha that started off on the cushion all zen & introspective. My journey started off like most of ours do -- wanting some peace from what my life (and mind) was throwing at me. 

Over the years, what began as a private, insatiable curiosity to understand my own mind and how it impacted my day-to-day reality developed into something much more. It led me to devouring books, working through my own healing journey, starting a clothing brand that advocated the importance of mental health (with donations going to mental health non-profits) and finally becoming a Meditation & Breathwork teacher. (All while continuing to be the “normal” 9-to-5 NYC gal in my daily life.) 

As a coach, I’ve since worked with private, brand and corporate clients - providing those who meditate with me with one-on-one sessions, group meditations and classes that help deepen your connection to your inner wisdom. 

I love debunking “meditation myths”, helping people find joy in their practice and showing student these practices are more than just a moment of relaxation on the cushion — its a way to transform the way you show up in the world.

WHY MEDITATE? (A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE)

Through all the things I have tried, I have found that mediation is the one constant among all the practices. It’s something that’s flexible enough to support you wherever you are in your journey – whether you’re just looking for some more peace in your day or looking to dive into some deep inner healing – and can provide constant support no matter what life is throwing at you. (It’s like a workout routine, but for your mind).

It can be a transformational tool – one that brings awareness to the beliefs that hold us back from being our true selves and provides grounding as we work through change.

WHY BREATHWORK? (A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE)

Like I said, I’m an NYC gal. And as an NYC gal (and meditation teacher) who understands being a part of the hustle & bustle, I know the classic oppositions to starting a daily practice: not enough time, can’t sit still, can’t “think about nothing” (which is a meditation myth btw), I don’t think its working -- the works. 

While I personally believe that meditation is the most foundational tool to developing conscious awareness, active breathwork helps bypass the mind and enter a different state of awareness much quicker. 

When implemented for a short interval of time, breathwork can help you get out of your head and into the present moment -- resulting in the relaxation that many of us seek from meditation. When implemented for a longer interval of time, it is a powerful healing tool to release any deeply held emotions or stagnant energy within as quickly as one session.

WHY WORK WITH ME? 

Whether you’re new to meditation, breathwork and mindfulness or are just looking to add a bit more flavor in your practice – I’m here for you.

My teaching style is approachable, yet transformational. My goal as a coach is to create a space where you feel supported to come as you are and leave with a practice that impacts your daily life. (Not just on the cushion, but off it too.)

If you want to know more or hear more, believe me – I love to chat. Feel free to email me or check out my meditation membership The Shift. I’m excited that you’re here, that you’re curious and I hope to meet you soon.
