ROOTED IN IBOGA

IBOGA RETREAT SANCTUARY

ROOTED IN NATURE.RECLAIMED BY TRUTH.

An intimate, oceanfront Iboga sanctuary on the island of Hawaii. Disconnect from the noise of the modern world and anchor your healing in sacred lineage, raw nature, and expert therapeutic care.

Where the jungle meets the ocean, your return to self begins.

To be rooted is to respect the source. We provide a trauma-informed, deeply held space honoring the traditional wood medicine of West Africa. Combined with Western medical screening safety protocols and dedicated integration specialists, we ensure your psycho-spiritual exploration is profoundly deep, completely safe, and structurally supported from the moment you arrive.

The sanctuary experience

Ten days, three ceremonies, held with care

The retreat

Ten days in a group of four to eight, on set dates. Organic whole foods at every meal, quiet rooms with natural bedding, and Daisy and Nick beside you throughout.

The ceremony

Three iboga ceremonies at the fire circle, held with reverence and expert care, with outside distractions stripped away so you can go deep within.

The integration

Yoga and meditation each day, the ocean, the jungle, and quiet rest. Processing days after each ceremony let insight settle into the body before the next.

The Canopy

Your journey begins long before you step through our doors. The drive down historic Government Beach Road introduces you to a different rhythm of existence. Traveling beneath a dense, cathedral-like canopy of trees and wild jungle growth, the modern world naturally falls away. The historic corridor acts as a natural decompression chamber, preparing your mind and body for the deep work ahead.

The Earth

Our sanctuary is built directly upon the raw, black basalt rock of Hawaii’s eastern coast. This is land born of fire - pure, unyielding, and incredibly alive. Sitting on this volcanic foundation provides an immediate, unmistakable sense of being grounded. There are no distractions here; only the tangible presence of an island still forming itself, inviting you to rebuild your own foundations from the bedrock up.

The Ocean

We sit directly on the ocean’s edge, where the endless Pacific meets the coastline. The rhythmic, powerful crash of the waves against the volcanic rock provides the ambient soundtrack to your entire stay. The ocean acts as a visceral force of clearance - washing away stagnant layers, mirroring the vastness of the internal landscape you will explore, and providing a constant, soothing frequency during your stay.

The medicine and its lineage

To be rooted is to respect the source.

Iboga (Tabernanthe iboga) is a shrub of the Central African rainforest. Its root bark has been held sacred for generations by the Bwiti tradition of Gabon, in ceremonies of initiation and healing.

Our medicine comes from its source, deep in the jungles of Gabon. Daisy completed her iboga provider training there, within the Bwiti tradition, and the ceremonies here are held with the reverence that lineage asks for.
