This information is used only to:
- communicate with you
- determine if a retreat is a safe and appropriate fit
- guide you through the next steps of the process
We do not sell or share your information with third parties.
Because this work involves health and personal background information, we treat what you share with care and discretion. This website is not a HIPAA-compliant medical platform, and you should avoid sharing highly sensitive medical records through the form.

You can opt out of communication at any time.
Use of This Website
This website is for informational purposes only. The content provided is not medical advice and should not be treated as such.
Nothing on this site guarantees acceptance into a retreat or specific results from participating in this work.
Iboga work involves physical and psychological considerations. You are responsible for consulting with your doctor or healthcare provider before participating.
Bwiti Healing Journeys does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment.
Application and Intake
Participation in a retreat is not automatic. All participants must:
- complete an intake process
- disclose all relevant health conditions
- disclose all medications
- complete required medical screening
Acceptance is based on safety, readiness, and overall fit. Bwiti Healing Journeys reserves the right to decline participation for any reason related to safety or appropriateness.
Medication and Health Requirements
Iboga has known contraindications with certain medications, including but not limited to SSRIs and benzodiazepines.
If you are taking any contraindicated medications, you must work with a licensed medical professional to safely discontinue use before attending.
Failure to disclose accurate medical information may result in removal from the retreat without refund.
Deposits and Payment
A deposit is required to secure your spot in a retreat. All retreats must be paid in full prior to attendance.
Details regarding payment timing and structure will be provided during the intake and booking process.
All payments are for retreat services, including preparation, lodging, meals, guidance, and integration support. No payment is made for the medicine itself.
By securing your spot, you agree to complete full payment before the retreat begins.
Failure to complete payment may result in loss of your reservation.
Cancellations and Refunds
Because retreats are small and capacity is limited, cancellations affect the entire group.
Specific cancellation and refund policies will be shared during booking.
In general:
- deposits may be non-refundable
- refunds may depend on timing and circumstances
