☯️ [DOORS OPEN] Alchemy Immersion Program for Self-Cultivation...Starts in March 🤩


February 5th, 2026

Hello Reader,

We wanted to share something we've been working on.

For years, people have asked us: "I want to do this Alchemical work for myself, but I'm not wanting (or ready) to become a practitioner. Is there a program for me?"

We finally have an answer: Alchemy Immersion.

Six Months of Healing, Practice, and Transformation

This is a new program we're launching in March - six months of Alchemical healing sessions, teachings, and mentorship for your own self-cultivation.

Not practitioner training. The work itself.

Here's what happens:

The program focuses on Stage 1 of the Nine Stages of Alchemy: Initiation. This is the work of releasing rebellious Qi - those patterns of resistance, struggle, and self-sabotage that make life harder than it needs to be.

You know the feeling: life shouldn't be this hard, but everything takes so much effort. There's no ease, no flow. Just constant resistance.

Stage 1 is about releasing that pattern. Creating ease. Not through more willpower or effort, but through the medicine itself - specific Alchemical healing sessions that work with your body's energy to restore natural flow.

What's included in this Alchemy Immersion Program:

  • 6 personal Alchemical healing sessions with certified practitioners (monthly)
  • 6 group mentorship calls (monthly) with replay access
  • 6 months of invitations to all Meditation Mondays and Five Element Fridays (live & replays)
  • Full access to our foundation classes in the Five Elements, Nine Palaces, and more
  • Full access to our Stage 1 Alchemy Meditation recordings and Qi Gong Exercises
  • Private community with your cohort of 20 students from all over the world
  • BONUS: If you join a cohort within the next 7 days: Free Releasing Chaotic Energy Course (this is the FULL version.)

The investment: $1,997 (or $350/month for 6 months or $215/month for 10 months)

When: March - August 2026

Who it's for: Anyone who wants to do this work for their own transformation or to prepare for studying to be a practitioner.

(If you're planning to join MAAP someday, this prepares you perfectly - you'll complete prerequisites and receive priority enrollment plus a $250 credit.)

We're continuing our regular Meditation Mondays and Five Element Fridays twice a month - live practices through the Nine Stages and Five Element teachings.

Current students and members have access to these, and Alchemy Immersion students will join us starting in March.

If you're not yet part of our community and want to try a session, you can sign up to attend time.

This first Alchemy Immersion cohort is limited to 15 students so we can match everyone with practitioners and keep the group calls intimate.

Enrollment closes March 1st.

If you've been waiting for a way to do this work that makes sense for your life - not as a practitioner, just for your own becoming - this might be your path.

With open hearts♥️,

P.S. Not sure what "Alchemical healing sessions" actually are? We get it - this work is different from anything else out there. The short version: we use specific point combinations from Daoist lineage to work with your body's energy and create real, felt transformation. It's not talk therapy, it's not energy work in the modern sense - it's ancient medicine adapted for modern life. If you're curious, the Alchemy Immersion page has more details.
