As a Somanaut, Sydney is endlessly curious about the cosmos of inner space—and the fascinating terrain of our bio-psycho-social selves. Her work is rooted in nearly two decades of experience as a massage therapist and yogi, woven together with her ongoing studies, research, trainings, mentors, and lived experience. Sydney teaches from a place of curiosity rather than certainty, inviting others to become curious about their own inner worlds. Her work is an exploration of the connections between body, mind, experience, and the world around us—creating space to come home to the body, deepen self-understanding, and move through life with greater presence and flow. Her meditations are an invitation to pause, listen, and explore what lives beneath the surface. Those curious to journey a little deeper can find Sydney’s additional offerings and explorations on her website.

After the first practice with you I realized that you haven’t been active on here for awhile. So sad, I absolutely love your poetically and educational practices. The pacing is on point for me as mentioned in other review. The inquiry to heart access was met with a no however instead of spiraling the pacing was able to pull me from that. Thank you so much. I’m grateful to have that which you have created and hope you will create more someday if the calling comes to you. Either way I appreciate you and your words of which none are “filler” imho but rather fulFILLingly authentic you. I recall a study suggesting those who have wide range of language have higher emotional intelligence and self awareness. I suppose it might explain discomfort in those still in early stages of consciousness/self actualization.

Woooow Sydney! This was solid! Brava!!! There was a pleasantly quick tempo in which you were able to sail through seamlessly! I feel that if I were to narrate such a practice that I would probably have to record like 70+ times before Having it without a hitch. I also appreciate the tempo because it counters my inherent ADHD and as you mentioned, keeps me in relation to the body. I also appreciated that you truly exemplify this belief of the individuals agency of a room all aspects of the practice; no mandatory positioning no mandatory this or that and so forth. but was really fascinating was how the practice was broken up in chunks of practice then some didactics and then practice again. . I’m grateful to have come across your practices and look forward to practicing together.

So good to learn about and focus deeply on our inner spaces rather than just going thru the motions of a nidra practice. Thank you....

Wow - what a flow of emotions! I loved holding joy and sadness together: a revelation! I loved the glowing focus around the body. I loved hearing the messages from my gut (you are safe!) and my heart. I loved this meditation; thank you!

I love Sydney’s tracks. I always learn something — even about a topic I’ve already been studying.
