It's definitely a life-changing experience, one you won’t regret! The courage, healing, and deep realizations came from the solid support of Moughenda and everyone in the village. Moughenda is a down-to-earth healer with deep integrity and respect. For the first time, I felt completely respected, loved, and cared for by both men and women. This is a true spiritual community!

My experiences at Moughenda's Village have been absolutely life changing. The healing and initiation ceremonies helped me address addiction and mental illness at their root. The provider training deepened my self-knowledge and equipped me to help others. Moughenda is an amazing, genuine teacher, balancing toughness with love. This is the place to connect with yourself, the truth, the medicine, and the Bwiti people, who are full of life and love.

Best Place on Earth to Heal - I attended Moughenda’s Village for Iboga Provider Training and a rite of passage. The supportive team ensured all my questions were answered, and the professional medical assessment made me feel safe. The powerful healing experience with Iboga and the village staff helped me address deep-rooted issues that other modalities couldn't. Now, I'm prepared to provide this medicine safely and professionally, sharing Bwiti teachings and helping others build better lives. If you're committed to healing, this is the place to be.

Moughenda’s village is an awesome place to heal/ learn. There are many things to know about life and oneself in this special place. My experience was phenomenal and a little piece of my heart will always remain in Gabon, Africa.

The Village Saved My Life - I was impressed with the caring nature of each member of the village. Everybody I encountered was deeply knowledgeable, kind, thorough and committed to helping people heal. I’ve never met a more devoted group of people like the Missoko Bwiti in Moughenda’s Village. Thank you Moughenda, Boussiengue, Manimha, Lucien and all the beautiful people who supported me in my journey!

Review 6/10

After leaving the military, I felt lost, depressed, and anxious. Despite trying various remedies, I couldn't find peace. This changed when I went to Gabon and found the missing piece in my healing journey. If you're in a similar situation or want to provide plant medicine to others, Moughenda’s village is the place to be. Although traveling to Africa may seem daunting, it's worth it. Moughenda and his team welcomed me warmly, ensuring my comfort from the moment I arrived in Libreville. Working with Iboga in the village was transformative, and I am deeply grateful for the experience.

I’ve tried many medicines and retreats searching for peace but always ended up seeking more. From the moment I arrived at Moughenda Village, I felt at home. The warm smiles and genuine faces made my heart sing. Desperate to end my endless healing quest, I found what I needed here. Moughenda Village didn’t just change my life; it gave me my life back and a peace I didn’t know I was missing. Moughenda is amazing, with humor and clear communication. If iboga calls, run to Moughenda Village and let the experts guide you. Much love and respect to the tribe.

introduction

Understanding Anxiety & PTSD

Anxiety and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) are mental health conditions that can significantly impact your daily life :

Anxiety is characterized by excessive worry, fear, or nervousness, which can then lead to several physical symptoms such as restlessness, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating

Regarding PTSD, it develops after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, its symptoms including for example flashbacks, nightmares, emotional numbness, and even heightened alertness.

The main information here is that both of these conditions are rooted in the brain’s response to stress, which makes it so challenging to break free from the cycle of fear and distress.

So even if traditional treatments like medication and therapy work for some people, it’s not the case for everyone, especially as more and more people are looking for a deeper approach to healing. And this is exactly where an Iboga retreat for Anxiety & PTSD shows its true potential, directly and simultaneously addressing the mind, the body, and the spirit.

Iboga Plant Medicine

Ibogaine for Anxiety & PTSD

Ibogaine is the active compound in the Iboga plant, and has shown an important potential in helping individuals with anxiety and PTSD.

How does the iboga plant work? This plant medicine for anxiety simply works by resetting your neural pathways. As a result, your brain will be able to process unresolved trauma and reframe negative thought patterns in an easier way. Ibogaine is also well-known to facilitate a profound introspective journey.How?

People choosing ibogaine treatments are regularly reporting that they discovered the root causes of their emotional struggles. The main benefit here is that the comprehension of the root causes of their anxiety allowed them to even better understand themselves, so heal in a more effective way.

This psychedelic therapy for trauma is therefore a powerful tool for anyone seeking for an emotional release and a spiritual insight, naturally leading to relief from anxiety and PTSD.

Who should not take ibogaine?

Even though ibogaine has transformative potential, it might not be suitable for everyone. It implies that individuals with certain medical conditions such as heart issues or psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia should avoid ibogaine in order to avoid the deterioration of their health.

Individuals taking medications such as antidepressants should consult a professional before even considering an ibogaine retreat, as it can have unknown possible effects of this kind of medications.

‍Good to know: at Bwiti House, every one of our participants undergoes a serious medical screening in order to guarantee safety and suitability for the iboga healing process.

Challenges of western treatments

The usual therapy and medication treatments for anxiety and PTSD are only focused on symptom management, not addressing the real root causes. But medications can also have a lot of side effects, while therapy may take years to yield significant progress.Unfortunately, these limitations leave many individuals feeling stuck in their healing process. The next step for them is naturally to search for alternative solutions by their own means.

And this is where alternative therapy for anxiety and PTSD like the power of iboga steps in, with a way more profound approach including a real emotional, spiritual, and physical healing, starting directly from the root causes of anxiety.
