Meet the bwiti tribe
Recorded live at Bwiti House in Gabon, Africa, Skip from the Living Indubiously Podcast (#57) shares an unforgettable conversation with our 10th Generation Bwiti Missoko Nima (Shaman), Moughenda Mikala. Together, they dive into the sacred Bwiti tradition, exploring the profound physical and spiritual healing powers of Iboga . They also unpack the challenges of the Western mindset and reveal why Iboga’s transformative potential is no longer a secret.
Iboga Plant medicine
Iboga is celebrated as the ultimate plant medicine by one of the oldest living civilizations in human history, with roots stretching back over 10,000 years before Christ. In Gabon, this sacred plant is enshrined in the country’s constitution as a national treasure and a vital resource, reflecting its profound cultural and strategic importance.
Known for its extraordinary healing powers, Iboga embodies both masculine and feminine energies, drawing its strength from the bark of its root, a symbol of its ability to address issues at their very core. Just like pulling a weed out by its roots to stop it from growing back, Iboga zeroes in on the root causes of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual challenges, unlocking deep, lasting transformations.
What sets Iboga apart is its unique ability to work on all these levels at once, speaking a universal language of truth that resonates deeply with each person’s unique journey, guiding them toward profound healing.
At Bwiti House, we’re committed to offering only the highest-quality Iboga, sourced directly from the Pygmy tribes of southern Gabon. Our Iboga is renowned for its exceptional purity and potency, ensuring an authentic and life-changing experience.
Every harvest is conducted through a sacred Bwiti ritual process, preserving the plant’s spiritual and medicinal integrity—honoring the traditions that have safeguarded Iboga for millennia.

What is the success rate of iboga treatment for depression?
While formal studies are still evolving , a lot of anecdotal evidence and observational data highlight Iboga’s potential. More and more participants report significant improvements in their mood, clarity, and overall well-being after undergoing Ibogaine therapy for depression.
The role of Bwiti House: Improve this potential by providing holistic care, with a huge attention put on the therapeutic power of Iboga, and of course, a share of traditional teachings and a reactive integration support.
"It’s definitely a life changing experience and one you won’t regret! I am free and happy, yet the courage, healing and deep realizations came because of the strong solid support from Moughenda and everyone in the village.Moughenda is a real down to earth human being, an amazing healer with deep integrity and respect.It’s the first time I have felt completely respected, loved and cared for by both men & women. This is a true spiritual community!"
Rupi Saran
"The ONLY way to connect deeply with the spirits of master plants is through TRADITION. The massive work that Moughenda and the community do is pristine. The ineffable luxury of rituals and teachings lies in their excellence of sharing sacredness.
Protected, listened to, contained and above all guided through the sacred codes. Moughenda's wisdom, great sense of humor and presence is unmatched.
Thank you Moughenda, Chris, Boussengue, Kanga, Magnima, Mututu, Ferol, Gilles, Mboma and all the rest who make this possible."
Giuliana Rivero
"In 2022, I spent 4 months in Moughenda’s village for both psycho-spiritual provider training as well as drug & alcohol detox training. My time with Moughenda and the Bwiti Tribe was life changing. Fully stepping into the Bwiti tradition allowed me to see the Truth, which allowed me to understand the healing process. Moughenda has the purest of hearts and is an incredible mentor. It is an honor to work under him and help Iboga medicine reach the people of the world."
Sarah Yardley
"My two-week Iboga initiation in the jungle of Gabon was one of the most profound and deeply healing experiences of my life. To sit with Iboga in the land where it comes from, guided by 10th-generation Bwiti shaman Moughenda, is something that simply cannot be replicated anywhere else in the world. Being immersed in the culture, the land, and the lineage that holds this medicine added a depth and integrity to the experience that I will carry forever. The ceremonies were incredibly powerful, deep, and beautifully held. The dancing, the singing, and the collective energy of the temple created a space that felt both timeless and alive. The fire talks were sacred, intentional, and deeply healing."
