SYDNEY STARKO

I’m Sydney...and I’m REALLY curious... I want to know the why and how of almost everything, and I’m ESPECIALLY curious about what is going on with our bio/psycho/social anatomy...this is the foundation of my practice.

I create space- literally through bodywork and movement, and figuratively via exploration the mind/body connection. I have a deep appreciation for science and I also have an innate knowing that there are mysteries in our selves that are real despite quantifiable evidence.

My passion lies in a middle way, in bridging East/West/North/South philosophies of health and wellness BECAUSE I believe whole heartedly that traditional and modern methods of healing can and should meet in the centre.

I come to the Embodied Living team to TEACH from my curiosities, education, research, trainings, mentors, experiences, AND over a decade as a RMT & Yogi. My goal is to inspire you into exploring your world (inside and out), and to support you while you make the connections necessary to be HOME in your body and in FLOW with your life.

“I can’t say enough positive words about working with Jess.”

“I can’t say enough positive words about working with Jess. Starting with the first consultation phone call, her approach felt lighthearted and allowed me to bring up what was top of mind for me. As a person, Jess’s energy absolutely radiates and after a 90 minute session with her, I feel heard, encouraged and like some of that wonderful light she emanates actually has transferred on to me.

She helps take on changes that feel like too big of an undertaking by myself - she breaks them down into manageable steps and helps keep me accountable with progress. More, she notices patterns that hold me back and asks questions that are simple yet effective to figure out why the behavior is happening. I am a believer that before change can become real, it will be uncomfortable, and let me tell you, Jess is not afraid to call me out! Having said that, she is a great listener; she has an amazing ability to hold space for whatever I need to talk about with all the kindness I could ever ask for. What works well for me is that Jess lets me do the work, but can give tremendously useful advice when I feel stuck. She is invested in my success and makes me feel like I am her only client. I consider myself very fortunate to have found her and for anyone reading this, if you are looking to put yourself first and back in control of what is happening in your life, book that phone call!”
