Who is Iboga for?

Iboga is for anyone who is called and ready to heal once and for all. Those with heart issues, liver and kidney dysfunctions, or reliant on psychiatric medication may not be eligible for Lunaire.

Is Iboga safe?   

Yes, it is 100% safe under the supervision of a Bwiti-trained provider and after thorough health screening by a trained medical professional.

What am I going to get from this?

Resolution of past trauma, clarity and perspective shifts toward eternal peace, sustainable contentment, and answers to any of life’s unanswered questions — to name a few.

What will it feel like? Will it hurt or be uncomfortable?

Through the duration of the retreat, the majority of time is spent resting and in solitude. The physical side effects that could potentially arise include nausea, sensitivity to temperature, emotional processing and purging.  You will largely be completely lucid, even chatting with Maryam during the night, and totally aware of yourself and your surroundings. The day following The Ceremony can feel at the least tiring, and at the worst, nauseous. 

How does Iboga compare to ayahuasca and mushrooms?

Nothing compares to the sacred experience of Iboga. Ayahuasca is more of a spiritual exploration with little control, and mushrooms is more of a visual experience. Iboga is an intentional medicine with the goal of permanent healing.

What do I need to do to prepare?

It is a conscious decision to be fully open and willing to go deeply within. We will have 2-3 calls to uncover your intentions and give us a roadmap to ensure we are both clear on your goals and what you want to get out of it. There is a specific pre-ceremony protocol for Lunaire which includes prep calls, health screening, and personal exploration to establish goals and questions desiring answers. Additionally, clients should plan to be off the grid during The Ceremony. You will be guided through all of it, and there is nothing else you need to change leading up to The Ceremony.

How does Iboga differ from Ibogaine?

Ibogaine, which you will probably find more of during a Google search, is an extracted alkaloid of Iboga (i.e. pharmaceutically altered). Iboga is the naturally occuring, root form of the plant, and what is used traditionally by the Bwiti-Mossoko tribe. 

Who shouldn’t do Iboga?

Those with heart issues, seizures, schizophrenia or serious psychological issues, kidney or liver dysfunctions. Additionally, if you are not ready to let go of all blocks in your life, and fully take responsibility for yourself, this is not for you.
