What our students say about the training?
“It went beyond everything I could have possibly imagined. I expected a lot but they delivered so much more... I feel like I have a very good understanding of energy now in my own body, about different energy fields, and how I can draw in energy for healing.”
Andreas Adam
“I learned to balance the elements—fire, air, water, and earth—within myself and in the world around me. Each element taught me something unique about my own nature, and through them, I was able to find harmony within… It was like shedding old layers of programming and stepping into a more authentic version of who I am.”
Travis Frank
“What I appreciate the most is your dedication, how much energy and effort you put into this course, and how open you are and how you guide us with the best intentions… We are shown what the potentials of a human being can be and how to get the best out of ourselves. I can only recommend you to other seekers.”

Meet Your Teacher - James JinYao (進堯)
James bridges the esoteric healing arts of the East and West into one integrated practice. His path began with a search for his own ancestral roots as a Chinese descendant raised in a Western household, a journey that led him across China, Vietnam, India, and Thailand, studying directly with masters through one-on-one transmission.
Through these experiences, he uncovered the lost threads of pre-modern Asian spiritual traditions while simultaneously reconnecting with Western Internal Alchemy, Hermetic philosophy, and the mystical schools of the past. This fusion revealed a single, universal framework of cultivation that transcends culture and time.
Guided by teachers who opened doors normally requiring lifetimes to access, James now shares these teachings with students seeking clarity, transformation, and a grounded path of inner cultivation. His purpose is to guide seekers on their own Hero’s Journey, uniting Eastern and Western esoteric principles to support healing, homeostasis, and the ascension of human consciousness.
