Iboga Retreats
Discover the Root creates a safe, judgment-free space for iboga retreats. We cultivate a supportive environment that promotes healing and growth for each individual.
Oral shamanic Bwiti traditions, teachings, and tools that have circulated for centuries are passed on to you. These teachings will serve you in your everyday life. This traditional knowledge will grant you the ability to choose a happy life.
Retreat Information
We hold small, intimate iboga retreats with a maximum of 10 guests. This gives us the ability to support each person in their journey.
You are your own healer. We're simply here to facilitate so you feel comfortable going into the depths of your healing process. Iboga medicine is a profound teacher and we are committed to assisting each guest along their unique journey to their full potential.
Iboga Ceremony
We’ve traveled to Gabon, Africa to study these sacred iboga teachings. We've learned to guide these ceremonies in alignment with the Bwiti traditions and spirit.
Our teacher was Gabon-native and 10th generation Bwiti shaman. The Bwiti tradition was passed on to him from his ancestors and the Mobongo people.
There are two ceremonies in our week-long retreat. There is no order to these ceremonies as each person is unique and will have their own experience:
Our Healing Ceremony offers you a night of physical and mental healing and detox. On this night, you’re clearing a path to align with your soul. Iboga is a truth-seeker, here to support you in freeing yourself and provide clarity. It does this by detoxing your body and healing your third eye to allow awakening.
The Psycho-Spiritual Ceremony is where you are guided to meet your soul. You can ask questions about your life’s purpose, meet Ms. Moon, or chat with loved ones who have passed. Here you can truly dive into the truth of who you are or want to be.
