About Steven Aitchison
Update: Please click on this link for more information about The new Mind Alchemy course. All the links to the downloads have now been removed. I would like to thank all 800+ readers who expressed an interest in this course and for everyone who completed the course the first time round, it is becasue of you I could make the course better.
The last few days have been a bit hairy with the blog being hacked and then the subsequent problems with updating wordpress etc.
However we’re back up and running again and I’d like to finish off the Mind Alchemy course which was due to finish on yesterday.
I am going to skip the last module I had planned which was going to be about gathering mind mentors into your life. However, the module was adapted from this post How you can get help from the most intelligent people in the world and you can read it there. The reason for not doing this is to tie the course up to it’s schedule. Not everybody wanted to do the course and I am aware other readers are not interested in it.
First things first
I would like to congratulate everybody who has been on this journey over the last month. I know a lot of you have been participating passively and others more actively, however I have felt a real sense of connection with everyone on the course. In particular the participants in the Facebook group have been amazing and their support and encouragement to each other was very touching (There’s even talk of a meet up 
). There were 385 members in the Facebook group and each played their part in making this course a huge success and for that I want to thank you. I am not going to thank anybody individually but you know who you are and I have expressed my sincere gratitude to you already on the blog and in the Facebook group.
The Facebook group will continue to stay open as I will be using the same group to launch the new course in April/May, and I’d still like to keep in touch with everyone from this group.
The path ahead of you
The last month has been a month of reflection, realizations, insights, tears 
and an outpouring of emotions. I believe that there has been a lot gained from all the modules presented in the course.
We’ve learned about how important it is to have outcomes in our lives, real active outcomes which are an on going process. The outcomes module is core to this course and we used all of our senses to engage as much as possible with our outcomes.
We’ve also learned the massively important fact that our beliefs are not set in stone and that we can change them. This fact alone and the subsequent learning from the module has the power to change people’s lives on it is own. I think this is one of the most important realizations to ever come out of the field of psychology.
We looked at our emotions and learned that our emotions can take control of us unless we learn how to take control of them. This was another hugely important module and one of the pillars of the course.
Another pillar was looking at how we all have a different reality and how our realities can be changed by changing our thoughts. This is another realization
That has the ability to change us in ways we can’t imagine.
We learned about relaxation with two modules which had guided visualizations to help with the relaxation process. These two modules were surprisingly well received with everyone gaining something from them, and I am glad I left them in the course, as I was a bit dubious at first.
We learned the importance of gratitude in our lives, not just surface gratitude but deep down unconscious gratitude which, when practised regularly, can become part of our core personality.
All in all the journey has been amazing for a lot of us and the camaraderie has made the journey all that more enjoyable.
Now it’s time to consolidate all the information we have learned and take it forward to really accelerate change.

Thanks Margaret, really appreciate your feedback.
Fabulous Steven and welcome back. Pity the mastermind slot was missed but your previous post is job done on this very important topic. I have updated my blog with some thoughts on this Final Day and I can see the beginnings of a testimonial in there somewhere
cheers mate and thank you, Stephen
Thanks Stephen. Yeah, I had planned the mastermind module, but with the blog issues over the weekend and yesterday I didn’t want to make the course run over too much.
Thanks for all your input over the last few weeks, and your blog posts, I really appreciate it.
Thank you Steven your work is wonderful and my learning is GREAT. I love being able to change my mind in my learning. Gratitude is very important and it is the little things that show us the bigger things, I also believe that faith is a big part of my life and with faith that I can do it, helps me to do some of the things that are hard for me. I know where I am going and putting into place the how knowing that creator sometimes has the more in place for me while I am on the road to doing. My faith helps me to know that I can as I am. I look forward to my future, learning from my past, as I step into my future and am excited and curious with my future.
Hey Lyn, you’ve been great over the last few weeks and I am so glad you enjoyed it.
It’s a great feeling to be excited about the future, a lot of us don’t know what a gift that is.
I am really Thankful for all You did for Us.
You are One Great Person I’ve ever get to know thought even tru this wonderful course..:)
For the part menioned ‘Meeting up all together’ – I believe Impossible is Nothing.
We may and we will . We meet All together.:)
That would be One More Amazing Day we spent connected to each other.
Will look forward to the next course.
Thank You
Best Regards

Hi Dilana thank you for being a part of this course, it was great working with you and I know you were doing a lot of work in the background. Thanks again.
You put together a great course Steven. I learned a lot. Added some more tools to my tool box. I understand NLP a little better. I plan on making myself an excerise video with music pictures and affirmations.
Hi Wayne thanks for your kind words I really appreciate it. Looking forward to the video.
It has been a great course Steven, none the less for the fact that I’ve moved my blog platform thanks to your help. I’ve had a bit of a roller coaster through with some personal issues that occurred, but that is not surprising really. It often happens in attempting to make movements in our lives such as these.
I’m pleased that a couple of personal friends have locked on to this material, albeit late in the day, but its up here now and for use. I’ve witnessed these friends gain some motivation and that is pleasing to me.
I’m looking forward to your next course.
I confess I have some tidying up to do with one or two unfinished elements on it.
Thank you Steven.
Coming to know you has been a real blessing
Hey Marty, it’s been an absolute pleasure getting to know you over the last 4 weeks, I feel as if I know you and your music
quite well, maybe because we work in the same field. You were great in the facebook group helping out others and your blog was great to read as well.
Steven,
I learned a lot from your course but I need to work on my outcomes more. I know my outcomes but the only way to make this happen for me is to make it clear, remove the distractions and keep working on improving myself, faith is very important, we have to believe in our self, nobody will do that for us and right now in life I’m on a crossroads, it’s time to work on my outcome, then create a plan and follow it. I also learned doing things step by step is possible you don’t have to conquer whatever you are doing quickly. It’s good to relax and take it easy, it can reduce the stress too. Then the most important thing. If we want to change, we have to do the change, nobody can do this for us. Thank you for a great course, it’s time to wish you all the best in life, all the gratitude life can give you – All the best to you friend.
Hi Engilbert, thank you for being a part of this. You’ve got a while to work on your outcomes, but it’s important to make this a part of your daily habits in order to embed them into your mind.
True and thanks for your reminder. Great course!
I think this was fabulous and I am so sad it is ending. I looked forward to each new module. I know it isnt really an end since I have gained so much from this experience. I have tools to use every day. Thank you Steven.
Hi Kathy, thank you so much for your time on this course. As you say it’s not ending it’s just beginning and the FB group will still be open
Please keep the links to the course open for the members who really lagged behind )like me). I read it all but couldn’t comment and keep the pace as the others did. Don’t close your page out, better late than never….?
Hi Diana, I will be keeping the links up until mid March. So I would download everything just now and work your way through the Mind Alchemy posts as they will be here forever
Thanks for this course! I’ve been following along quietly and enjoying each module, although due to life, I’m a few behind. Prior to the hacking I had saved up to day 25, then there is today, did I miss any days in between?
Also wanted to say I’ve been using your guided meditation since you posted on your original blog a few years ago and it is still one of my favourites. This is course is a great showcase for all your work, I did like the concept of Change Your Jacket but this is much more user friendly.
thanks again!
Hi Due, you did not miss any days inbetween, I just couldn’t post to the blog due to the hack.
I am glad you liked this better than Alter Your Jacket and I would have to agree with you about it being easier. Thank you for all your support, I really do appreciate it.

and ya i thing more i really missed ur article from 25 feb ,…i thought i got disconnected from this site …so i searched it on google ,…and then when i didnt got succeeded …i felt really bad.really happy to see u back …thx a lotttttttt
Stephen, I paid for a course just before I found Mind Alchemy. Your course was 1000% better.
Please do not undervalue what you have put together here. This is a quality course.
Thank You so much for all your had work and for sharing this with us. We were the lucky ones to receive
it for free – and we know it.
In gratitude Cindy
wow Cindy, that is a huge compliment, thank you. With everybodys feedback I hope to strengthen the course and make it even better. Thanks again.
Steve, I recently found a new job teaching basic electricy and electronics at a vocational school. I have been busy with my new job. I have been looking at your lessons in the evening. I really appreciate the effort you have put into this and look forward to learning more about the mind and correct thinking process. This is a critical skill in todays world. Keep up the good work!
Thanks Ron, I really appreciate your feedback. I know a lot of readers had silent voices and it’s great to hear some feedback.
Steven , the course is very well balanced and paced. It covered a wide range of topics and aspects in theory as well as hands on. The exercises are interesting, relevant and do-able. There is clearly experience and thought behind this program. Even though i was one of the more passive observers, i was a very keen one
Thank you.
Hi Ligia, I know you were were participating with your comments and i am so glad you managed to do the course and found it useful in your life.
Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful and inspirational course with us. i beleieve that you are one in a million to share this wonderful hope and life giving lessons to life.
thank you
Thank you Pam, I really appreciate your feedback on this.
Thank you so much Steven for this enhanced course full of inspirational knowledge. I am very grateful for what you have shared with us.
in light always
Hey Tania, I am glad you enjoyed the course material, hopefully you can join us on the next course.
Hi Steven, I haven´t followed the course programme to 100 percent but I have read most of the material you have provided and taken what I have felt being right for me in it, and I feel I have got a lot out of it also using this tactics. Thank you very much!
Hey Tom, thanks for your feedback and your support I always appreciate it.
It’s such shame about the blog being hacked so close to the end but maybe in some way that was a test to you and your own teaching of the mind alchemy process, if you turned this into a book, what a great way to show your own journey through, demonstrating the power of it all in the face of any challenges.
It was a bit of nightmare at the beginning but we got through okay and have even got a new design out of it (which is ongoing
). Thanks for your support Amit and the radio interview, it was a great experience.
Thank you very much Steve, it’s been quite a ride , the journey it’s very well worth it , enjoyed so much that I’m going to start all over again.
Thank Steve
Regards
Hey Cesar, thank you, I appreciate your comments. See you on the next course.

you’re are a massive inspiration and role model!
thanks again
Thanks Lina. Everyone on the course has been great, taking part in everything and getting stuck in, so i thank you for your support and time and can only hope it has helped you in some way.
I’ve finally finished the last exercises this morning, albeit a little late, but then that is ok. It is a relief and I’ve just realised how useful this last exercise is. I’m going to work on feedback for you now Steven
