I received everything I expected from the coaching process and more. I have tried many techniques, meditations, etc. prior to the sessions with Staas. However, I was still lost at this stage in my life and needed something deeper and more radical. Which is exactly what PEAT turned out to be. I had no idea what to expect. But, I am impressed with the results. I was able to resolve issues I did not realized I had (I was surprised when some of them appeared during our sessions). I have experienced many-many changes. I am definitely becoming more in touch with my deeper self and able to understand how to approach different situations and also which way to move forward. I can see my path so much clearer, and I am finally able to pinpoint what I want/need vs. what was programmed to need. It’s really truly amazing. I can much more clearly identify my personal emotions vs someone else’s. Big change in how I feel about issues: less anxiety about not knowing. I also feel more gratitude for every day pleasures. I feel less guilt when putting my personal needs first. I got a lot of insights regarding my family, especially my mom and my grandmother. It is helping to understand why I am feeling certain things and behaving in certain way. I am able to say “no,” which was my biggest problem in relationship with friends and family. I can set and uphold healthy boundaries better with my family and friends, and uphold them without feeling guilty.
This has been the most beneficial personal work I have ever done for myself. I was seeking a means of becoming more in touch with myself and understanding why I would choose certain ways of reacting to situations. I was compelled to explore energy movement with Staas. The work with Staas has been beneficial and meaningful, I wouldn’t have been able to do this without him. Several sessions later, I now know who I am, I know what I want in life, and have the capacity for calmness and confidence to achieve what I desire. I approach the world in a different manner now. I relate to others and to myself in a different manner now. Brilliant is but a single word, but sums up how I feel about it all.

I’ve known Staas since 1993, when he was a high school student and I was teaching Russian Literature and Language. It has always been a pleasure to communicate with such a bright person. In February 2010, for no certain reason, or maybe because of the access to Facebook, I decided to find him. After finding out what he does for people as a life coach, I decided to ask him for a couple of telephone sessions for myself. Right after the first 1.5 hours of the process, I felt as if somebody removed a heavy metallic device from my brain and body, which followed by my inner conflicting emotions disappearing.
My friends told me that I even started to sound differently and my skin began to glow. It seemed that my old emotional pain left me for good this time despite my strong belief that I had already handled my psychological problems long time ago. After the second telephone session, I felt from more emotional blocks and conflicts, and got a clear vision on the solutions to the problems that I could not resolve myself. Now I have got a clear understanding of what my vocational calling is and how to realize it in a new-for-me country (I came to Canada from Ukraine in 1998).
There are more sessions coming up, and I am looking forward to them because they rejuvenate me as a person who has always been looking for the connection to all levels of her being. I constantly seek spiritual enlightenment and read a lot on ancient philosophies such as Hermeneutics, Zen, Tao, Zoroastrianism, Kabbalah and others. Even though I am familiar with thousands of wisdom sources, I have now gotten a deeper understanding of how crucial it is to have guidance to our natural unfolding. I am grateful for the help that Staas has generously offered on my journey.

Like some other reviewers, I reached out to Staas and his methodology simply out of curiosity. I think it’s important to experience different perspectives and methodologies. That being said, I’ll quickly move onto the next experience or perspective if I don’t immediately see long term value.
I’d often assumed that life coaching was about correcting weaknesses and insecurities – and certainly Staas’ therapy method provides guidance to uncover and support efforts to improve ‘stuff’ that might not be going quite as well as you’d like.
But, more importantly, I think his methods help you look at situations you find yourself in regularly from a different perspective. With that new perspective, I’m able to see new opportunities that might take something in my life from pretty good to great.
I highly recommend Staas to anyone who wonders what Life Coaching is all about.

Imagine attending the most amazing party where you experienced such fantastic moments that you have story after story to show and tell? And imagine that at this party, your list of attendees included the “who’s who” of your world and your life. That is what a session with magical Staas Yudenko is like.
I survived a terrible motorcycle accident 10 months ago. My body survived the crash that rendered me paraplegic (paralysis from the knees down). My mind survived….. in part…. My personality was affected tremendously, as I have had to adapt a new role and many new rules and boundaries in life. In the simplest of terms, the transition is difficult.
I met Staas two months after I was discharged from a seven month hospital stay. Talking with Staas is easy, fluid, natural. He invites you to chat with him, and you feel right at home on the phone, or in the comfort of your own space, on your terms.
Prior to working with Staas, each attempt I made to speak about the accident and the moments leading up to it, resulted in an involuntary lightbulb-sized lump rising in my throat, huge fleshy tears rolling down my cheeks, and sobbing…. I could usually tell the entire story, but it would take me awhile to gather my thoughts in between all the crying. While I formerly felt angry, powerless and fearful, I now accept what occurred.
I talk about the accident now – every detail I can remember, down to the yellow-colored shirt of the man who found me – as if I am telling a story. I still experience some pain and grief, of course, but the way my memories are stored is so much more functional now. This has made a huge difference in my life.
I believe Staas is a magician, but cooler, making him a wizard. Staas helps you work through your issues with your own magic.

I have had several sessions with Staas and am a healer myself. I am therefore a fairly critical and discriminating consumer.
Staas has continually impressed me with his ability to very quickly guide me through befuddlement and stagnancy to states of unexpected clarity and forward direction in my life. After each session with Staas, I feel joyful, empowered, connected to my higher spiritual self, and very inspired to work toward new goals we’ve identified together.
Staas is truly gifted. A rare combination of tremendous intellect, fiery directness, warmth and compassion.
I always feel as though Staas patiently and meticulously holds me to my work at hand. He has amazing focus and persistence and takes whatever time is necessary to complete each session. Although Staas can clearly deliver results in one or two hours, I would strongly recommend ongoing life coaching sessions with Staas.

When I first starting seeing Staas, I have to admit I was skeptical. I’d been stuck in a rut, trying to dig myself out of a two-year long ‘pity pit.’ Health issues and a bad break-up left me disempowered and questioning my purpose. I’d seen a couple of therapists prior to Staas. One let me dwell, and the other was sure that the only thing that could help me was the law of attraction. While there is certainly something to the latter, it’s quite difficult to focus on what you want when there are things holding you back.
I’ve had a few sessions with Staas now, and I have to say he’s helped me a lot. I’ve found him a great listener, quite intuitive, and insightful. He’s firm when he needs to be firm, but always supportive. He did a nice job of honing in on things that were holding me back, and helping me release that negative energy. He did this with clear focus and great sensitivity. And I always felt that he was on my side.
I can’t explain exactly why his techniques work, but they do. And I’m appreciative for the positive energy he’s brought into my life, and the renewed inspiration and newfound gratitude that I’ve found in myself.
I would like to express an enormous amount of gratitude for the work that Staas has put in into my healing process. I always look forward to my sessions with Staas. No matter how I feel when we start the process, I always reach even deeper understanding of myself and leave feeling great. Staas has helped me to realize that trusting the process is very important part of PEAT. Staas is patient , detail oriented and extremely effective. I had found that it is absolutely important to have trust in the person you are working with, and I trust Staas. Staas has always been very professional in every conceivable way: his knowledge, passion, attention to detail, and his ability to detect and masterfully work through my thick resistance. The results are amazing!

When I came to Staas in Feb. 2010 I had just finished one of the worst years of my life where the year before that had been one of my best. That being said, I was very clear that I have always had a “Feast-or-Famine” type program that was running my life, and this lastest round had been the worst by far.
I wanted to have a healing around this issue of lack and limitation vs. prosperity and abundance. After relaxing Staas asked me some questions while I was touching various meridian points on my own body. Very quickly I started seeing symbols of my problem. Staas then led me through an excercise to unify these two opposite energies.
Another picture came and I had a flood of emotion hit me as I realized I had been holding back my true purpose here on earth. As we dove deeper, I saw more symbols come to me, lighting the way to the meaning of my life. I was amazed at how clearly my subconscious was providing this information and how clearly I could see why I am on the planet.
We cleared any obstacles both in the present or in the future, that might prevent me from living my life’s true purpose. We ended by asking for a symbol to come to me that would represent this new understading. Very quickly a picture came to me that was so beautiful I wanted to weep wth gratitude. Now any time I focus on this symbol after the session, I have access to this higher consciousness that is now guiding me forward.
It was all a very unexpected outcome but the truer, deeper answer to my old programming of poverty vs. wealth. There have been several outcomes just from this one powerful session!
- A: I have had a healing so that I can focus on what will bring me true wealth and reveal my true purpose.
- B: I know what my purpose is on the planet, which I was never fully sure of before.
- C: I have a deeper relationship with what made me, beyond any religion. I have a real relationship that is alive and real. It is like my Conscious and Subconscious, my Spirit and my Body, are talking again!
- D: My life has meaning and purpose other than making money and spending it. I know I am here to make a difference that will bring me the Spiritual Gold I truly was seeking.
- E: I have an actual visual picture I use as a Mantra to tap into this new energy. It is like a lighthouse to keep me on the path.
Staas is an amazing facilitator, helping to create the bridge between our body, emotions, intellect and spirit. Thank you for this beautiful work and I can’t wait to bring other issues to the table to shine clarity and light on all areas of my life! This is what evolution in action looks like.
