African Bwiti Iboga Retreats in the homeland. For all those who feel called to iboga and work deeply with the medicine and the bwiti are welcomed.

Bwiti is not a religion. It is a tradition; a spiritual path of self-discovery. It is simply the study of life itself, and through that study, a mastery in the art of living.

There is no guru, no priest, no pope.

But for the Bwiti, there is a school of life. And Iboga is the teacher.

Thousands of years ago, after the Pygmies of Central Africa discovered Iboga, usage and practice of the medicine eventually shaped the Bwiti tradition.

Born in the South of Gabon, the Bwiti melded the Pygmies’ shamanic skills and healing modalities with the teachings of Iboga.

Bwiti use Iboga as a tool, to connect to spirit and to innate truth. The medicine uncovers and accesses this truth that lies within each of us. The Bwiti know that, from day one, Creator gave us everything we need, and that this truth exists deep inside of us. We do not have to ‘pay’ to be alive. We simply are.

The value of one’s life is held in the Bwiti’s highest regard. They treat themselves with care, and possess honor, courage and commitment for their life.

They recognize that they are a part of nature, and they do not abuse it.

The Bwiti live in the moment—without holding on to past or projecting into the future. They accept what is, always engaging all of their senses to help guide them.

Fear does not exist in their tradition. To them, fear is only a thought, and illusion that limits human potential.
