THE ADVANCED COURSE
The Advanced Sacred Alchemy Training
For those ready to do the deeper work and to carry it into the world
Advanced is for practitioners who have completed the Sacred Alchemy Foundation course and are ready to go further in terms of personal transformation and professional depth. The work we do in Advanced builds directly on what was established in Foundation: the sacred engagement, the language precision, the alchemical framework. Without those roots, the depth we go to in Advanced has nothing to hold it.
-
The Advanced Sacred Alchemy Training Course is for practitioners who want to work at depth with other human beings.
People who want to hold space for shadow work, soul retrieval, and soul transformation not as a technique they have learned but as something they have lived through themselves and can therefore transmit with authority and care.
It is also for those who sense that their personal development needs to go somewhere their existing practice has not been able to take them.
Advanced will ask as much of you as it gives. That is the point.
-
The Advanced Sacred Alchemy Course takes the foundations of Sacred Alchemy into the deeper territories.
You will work with the Medicine Wheel as a complete map of the psyche, East, South,West, North, and Centre, as a lived experience that changes how you see, how you work, and how you understand yourself.
You will develop your capacity for shadow work and soul retrieval the ability to accompany a client into the parts of themselves that have been lost, avoided, or exiled, and to support them in bringing those parts home.
This is some of the most powerful and most delicate work a practitioner can do. Advanced gives you the methodology, the experience, and the personal depth to do it well. You will work with the full Ericksonian language system moving beyond the foundations of Foundation into the deeper patterns of trance, induction, and therapeutic suggestion. And you will develop the practitioner presence that cannot be taught directly but can be cultivated, through your own ongoing inner work, through supervision, through the group container of the training itself. By the time you complete Advanced, you will have moved through a significant personal transformation of your own.
That is not a side effect of the training. It is the method. The practitioner who has done their own deep work is the one who can truly hold space for others
-
Advanced is available online and in person. Foundation with Alexia is a prerequisite.
New dates coming soon.
From Technique to Craft.
The Sacred Alchemy Foundation course is key understanding the principles and key skills of Sacred Alchemy. The Advanced sacred Alchemy Course those principles become a living practice and make you a practitioner.
You will begin to recognise when a person's presenting problem is not the real problem. You will learn to work with what lies beneath the surface the parts that have become separated, the stories that have become fixed, the places where time has become trapped, the shadows that have been rejected and the experiences in which something essential has been lost.
You will explore trance and altered states with elegant sophistication, develop your ability to work with language and perception, and deepen your understanding of the psyche through both Jungian and shamanic perspectives.
The question changes from: “Which technique should I use?” to: “What is this person asking me to see?”
That is the beginning of craft.

"I was just recommending Alexia to a friend something I do regularly and felt compelled to write this review five years after I had only one session with her. At that time, which was the darkest of my life, I was suffering with anxiety, OCD and post-traumatic stress. Just one session with Alexia and, along with my own commitment and desperation to change, it worked for me. Alexia truly saved me. Best thing I ever did”.

The Advanced Sacred Alchemy Plan for Alchemical Learning
The Seven Stages of the Advanced Journey
The Advanced programme follows the alchemical progression. At each stage you release something, discover something and weave something new into the way you work.
-
The fire begins by loosening whatever has become fixed. You deepen your understanding of trance phenomena, modalities and submodalities, the inner voice, curses and mantras, ambiguity tolerance and parts work.
You come to recognise how the mind constructs experience, and how those constructions can be transformed.
-
What happens when the structures you have relied upon begin to soften? You explore the Medicine Wheel and its four directions, the energy body, Internal Family Systems, soul loss and retrieval, the psychology of the petty tyrant and deeper ways of meeting depression and psychological suffering. Here the practitioner learns to work with perspective as well as content.

This is the descent into deeper psychological territory.
Beneath the conscious story there may be other voices, forgotten parts, exiles, shadow material and experiences that have never been fully will deepen your work with IFS and Voice Dialogue, exploring the Parliament of Selves and working with exiled parts.
You will explore the Exile Archetype, Soul Deserts and the places where something essential may have become disconnected from conscious life.Through Shadow work we bear in mind the Gold in the Shadow on that journey, You will begin to approach shadow not simply as something to eliminate, but as somewhere that hidden life and potential may also reside. You will explore tracking the Lost Flame, soul care around coma, death and transition, the Inner Council Journey and further NLP approaches to integration and intention.This is not about forcing the psyche to reveal itself.
It is about learning how to enter deeper territory with respect, awareness and discernment.
-
Time moves in more than one way. You explore the difference between Chronos and Kairos, traumatic time loops, timeline work, time distortion hypnosis, soul timelines and shamanic approaches to time and retrieval. You also deepen your understanding of logical levels and more complex presentations, learning to follow how experience is organised across identity, belief and meaning.
-
Distillation asks what remains when everything unnecessary has been stripped away. You revisit the petty tyrant and meet the Four Enemies, Sleight of Mouth, perceptual positions, transference, well-formed outcomes and the blame frame. You explore grief, psychosomatic work and distance healing, and you receive the ethics and responsibilities that accompany deeper practice. This is where technique meets connection, and where the practitioner comes to know that mastery is power held with consciousness.
-
The work comes together in an immersive Medicine Wheel experience, exploring the psyche through the four directions and the centre.
East: Clarity and Vision
South: Fire, Heart and Courage
West: Shadow, Loss and Soul Retrieval
North: Embodied Wisdom
Centre: The Quintessence Trance
The scattered pieces find their relationship to one another, theory becomes experience, technique becomes embodied knowledge, and what you have learned becomes your own way of working.
Advanced Sacred Alchemy Training is about seeing more. You learn to see the pattern beneath the story, the part beneath the behaviour and the belief beneath the symptom. You notice where perception has narrowed, where something precious has been lost, and where you yourself are being drawn into the field. Then you learn how to work with what you see.
That is what it means to deepen the craft.
