Seeking A Path to Free Your Heart? Let’s Talk About Daoist Alchemy… Tuesday, January 6th
A Free Webinar with Leta Herman, Jaye McElroy & Leora Esterra
The world may be in chaos, but your heart doesn’t have to be.
The Nine Stages of Alchemy is a Daoist map to realization – what Buddhists call enlightenment. It’s the path to living as your true nature, undefended and free…And it begins with liberating your heart.
In this webinar, you’ll discover:
✨ The Nine Stages of Alchemy – an ancient Daoist path to realization, taking you from defended to awakened, from performing to living as your true self
✨ Why this is the Daoist equivalent of Buddhist enlightenment – and why it begins with your own heart, not your intellect
✨ The tentacles around your heart – how to recognize what’s keeping you from realization and the Alchemy principle that changes everything: “The best protection is no protection”
✨ A guided meditation – one powerful point for heart liberation that you can work with immediately
✨ What realization can actually look like in this modern world – not always blissfully sitting on a mountaintop (which is great), but living authentically, learning to fly in your daily life, becoming the realized human being you were always meant to b – and what that could look like.
This webinar is for you if:
- You’re carrying heart pain or defensiveness that blocks your path to freedom
- You’re seeking awakening and realization on a personal level
- You’re an acupuncturist, acupressurist, or energy healer who became a healer to help others find freedom – and you know healing is ultimately spiritual work
- You’re a spiritual seeker ready to walk the alchemical path
- You want to live authentically – as your true nature – not just feel better
- You’ve been curious about our Master Alchemy Apprenticeship Program and want to experience our teaching
- You’re a lifelong learner who is curious about Alchemy and how to study it
You don’t need to be a practitioner. You don’t need special credentials. You just need to be ready for the journey… and sign up for the webinar!
What You’ll Walk Away With:
- An overview of the Nine Stages and clues about where you might be on your path to realization
- A practical tool (acupressure point) you can use immediately for heart liberation
- Insight into what’s blocking your awakening
- A vision of what living as a realized human being actually means (spoiler: it’s not what you think)
Plus: We’ll be opening enrollment for our January 2026 MAAP cohort and answering questions about the program for those who feel called to walk this path with guidance and community.

Register Now – This Webinar is Free
Live attendance is most powerful, but register even if you can’t make it live – we’ll send you the replay.
What Past Students Say:
“Living with a free heart, without defensiveness, being fully authentically yourself for real, often for the first time ever.”
“Flying in your life. Living in joy and with light inside. People can see it in you. Your clients see it.”
“I walk into rooms differently now. My clients have spontaneous breakthroughs because I’m finally PRESENT.”
“Intuition and destiny. I just knew immediately this was my path.”
Your Questions Answered:
Is this webinar really free?
Yes. We’re teaching real content whether you ever join MAAP or not. We’ll introduce the program at the end for those interested, but the teaching is valuable on its own.
I’m not an acupuncturist – is this for me?
Absolutely. The path to realization doesn’t require credentials. About half our MAAP students are practitioners, and half come purely for their own awakening. Both are honored.
What if I can’t attend live?
Register anyway and we’ll send the replay. But live is always more powerful – you can ask questions and there’s energy in being part of the group.
Is this really about “enlightenment”?
Yes – though Daoists call it becoming a realized human being. It’s the path to living as your true nature, undefended and free. The Nine Stages is the map. Your heart is the starting point.
Will you be selling something?
We’ll talk about our January MAAP cohort at the end for people who feel called to walk this path with guidance. But there’s no pressure, and the webinar content is valuable regardless.
The world isn’t going to get less chaotic.
But you can become a realized human being.
