First non-psychedelic Iboga
What is Iboga
Tabernanthe Iboga is a shrub plant that grows in Africa. It has been discovered and used by local tribes in spiritual and religious rites of passage.
Components of Iboga's alkaloids have psychoactive abilities to induce a "neurochemical reset" on human brain and nervous system. And its psychedelic qualities result in alterations of perception, mood, consciousness, cognition, or behavior. During traditional ceremonies people ingest Iboga and experience intense physical and emotional shifts, which is often labeled as "healing effect".
Why non-psychedelic
In normal, traditional setting of Iboga people experience intense purging and hallucinations, and this is believed to be the key to healing process. However it was these "psychedelic and hallucinogenic effects" that did not allow my body to reach deeper levels on subtle body and unconscious mind.
My body informed me that psychedelic intensity puts body under pressure and battle. Purging is a process of toxication nothing but attempts of the body to reject foreign and overwhelming substance.
My inner compass guided me to explore more gentle and save ways for Iboga to meet the body. I dedicated one year to researching, extracting and taking Iboga by myself. And that's when I discovered a different perception of plant medicine work. Purpose of this Iboga is not to shake and challenge, but to find Balance and Harmony.
I learned that Iboga contains deep hidden abilities, and understanding how to turn it into a simple and safe agent became the essence of my craft. The success of it does not only hide in the recipe of extraction. But also in my state.
During time of extraction I hold myself in a certain energetic and mental condition. I preserve the space of work in a container of calm, silent and intuitive listening.
The final product becomes a neutral agent, free of human ideas, religions and personal interference. This allows safe and deep compatibility of Iboga with my client's body.
Body does not need to struggle, vomit, shake, hallucinate, or cry in order to reach depth of harmony and calmness.
This method is perfect for those who:
-
do not want to experience psychedelic intensity
-
want to stop over-stimulating own nervous system and instead harmonize it
-
are not interested in digging into dark traumatic past, and open "pandora box", but instead want to explore abilities of peace and Light
-
want to turn loud mental chatter into soothing mental silent clarity
-
are interested in a long-term balance
-
have cardio-vascular, digestive and nervous system issues
-
want to explore nature, animals and plants on a deeper level during the journey
