There are currently around 100 clinical trials of all stages for various psychedelic compounds, including #ibogaine, which has shown incredible potential for the treatment of addiction. Barnes believes that ibogaine has the potential to save countless lives, particularly for opioid #addiction. Many ancillary services being created, such as coaching, #microdosing, and retreats, are helping to create a culture around #psychedelics and psychedelic normalization.

#personalupdate: I’m going totally offline for the next 3 days, while participating in a Sacred Silence retreat, and meeting for the first time with the #plantmedicine teacher/healer whom I’ve been calling (as he introduced himself to my brother in a dream) “Mr. Iboga” (aka #ibogaine).
I’ve been off all forms of caffeine, cannabis, and alcohol for a week now—which I intend to continue for at least the next 3 years—while I dedicate myself to finishing my book of #poetry, I AM THE SINGULARITY.

“I have treated more than 2,000 patients with ibogaine over 17 years and the relapse rate is about 50 percent in the long term, but around 85 percent of people leave the clinic without withdrawals and cravings,” Dr Felipe Malacara MD, the chief clinical operations director, says.

@sizlingh not sure I understand the question , but I don’t think you can have a complete picture of #harmreduction tactics/best practices without at least including the powerful #psychedelic #entheogen #plantmedicine known as #ibogaine. Why would you want to keep them separate?
