“The shortcut to happiness is truth.”

IBOGA AND IBOGAINE
Tabernanthe Iboga is a psychedelic from West Africa. It is traditionally used for rites of passage and healing ceremonies among the Bwiti communities of Gabon and Cameroon.
In the West, it’s most studied alcaloid, Ibogaine, is best known for its unique capacity to interrupt addiction processes, resolve PTSD, heal traumatic brain injury, eliminate the need for antidepressants and as a way to make fundamental changes to self-destructive patterns. See Research Here.
A Bwiti ceremony of Iboga or what is commonly called a “flood dose” of Ibogaine can last several days, and plunges people into an experience from which many report to emerge profoundly transformed. It is an oneirogen and produces a state of awake dreaming characterized by an immersive dream state similar to REM sleep. It can be an experience which allows deep truths to emerge from the subconscious realm and can feel like a rebirthing of the self and a re-setting of the “spiritual and electrical operating system”. It is a root which can offer profound visions of truth and understanding reality and your place in it. It is commonly associated with visions and interactions in the ancestral realm and what many call a life review.
IBOGA MICRODOSING
Refers to a microdose of Tabernanthe Iboga root bark (containing small doses of Ibogaine). It can effect profound changes on a person’s day-to-day experience while staying at a sub-percetual level.
Learning how to microdose safely with therapeutic guidance can effectively take you to the roots of your experience and help you to address life with renewed stamina and strength of spirit. It is this sense of flourishing and connection that we cultivate together in our group processes or working one-on-one with an experienced therapist or coach.
Many years of anecdotal, and now new research, are beginning to highlight the unique ways iboga can enhance introspection, self-awareness and insight. Our unresolved trauma and unexpressed emotions are what prevent us from having a more productive, more compassionate, more loving, and plentiful life.
Microdosing Iboga quite often connects people back to a previous ceremony or flood dose of Ibogaine and reinvigorates its effects.
By microdosing we can be accompanied by the plant in our daily life. It is a sacred ritual we can implement at important times to enhance our personal growth and development.
BENEFITS OF IBOGA
Psychedelic experiences can help us to heal very deep aspects of the mind. Those who have worked with us over the years have reported experiencing profound and life-changing insights which have allowed them to address:
deep-rooted self-destructive habits and patterns
All forms of trauma
A new perspective on their place and purpose
Clarity and gnosis
releasing of contracted emotions
Healing relationships and forgiveness
A re-connection with inspiration, dreaming and their true nature
Renewed ability to confront life with vigor and strength
An ease to choosing a healthier lifestyle and a freshness to their communications
General feeling of renewal, a quiet mind, and “system upgrade”
Connection with their lineage and understanding of family dynamics
