At The Anzelmo Ibogaine Center we have carefully selected various therapies as part of our detox plan and recovery program. These therapies help you on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level, in order to make your transition into a sober lifestyle as easy as possible after your Ibogaine treatment. When a recovering addict opens up new body and mind pathways of thought, emotion and being, new vibrations are created, thus disrupting and decreasing previous addiction memory pathways. As you remove your old habit — addiction — we want to replace it with new habits: positive and supportive techniques that you will take with you when you leave and start rebuilding your life. Kundalini yoga is one of the classes we offer at the Anzelmo Wellness Center, A recent patient, AP, 39, a plumber from Baltimore, talks about how Kundalini yoga helped him: “Kundalini has probably been the biggest impact on me since I’ve been in treatment, other than the Ibogaine. It’s hard and it makes my shoulders hurt, but at the same time the feeling of triumph makes me leave my body,” says AP. According to the James McCrae and his blog, Shit Your Ego Says, “Kundalini is an ancient Sanskrit word that literally means “coiled snake.” In early Eastern religion (long before Buddhism and Hinduism) it was believed that each individual possessed a divine energy at the base of the spine. This energy was thought to be the sacred energy of creation. This energy is something we are born with, but we must make an effort to “uncoil the snake,” thereby putting us in direct contact with the divine. Kundalini Yoga is the practice of awakening our Higher Self and turning potential energy into kinetic energy.” “If I hold the kriya (In Kundalini Yoga a kriya is a series of postures, breath, and sound that affect the body, mind, and spirit simultaneously) long enough, I leave my body. And every time I leave, I go see my brother. He’s been dead since I was two and I never consciously knew him,” says AP. “When the kriya is done I lay on my back, and I get the exact feeling I got on Toad (5 MEO DMT), which is a feeling of comfort and bliss. It’s my absolute favorite thing to do here. Kundalini is the crack cocaine of yoga. I see colors in the ceiling. I haven’t done any research, I had no idea what to expect. I don’t want to do any research. Kundalini is my go to now. I never meditated once before I came here. I’ve done vinyasa yoga, but that’s all. My outlets seem to be meditation and kundalini.” “During the kriyas, when it hurts to the point where I want to drop my shoulders, it’s almost like I feel like they’re held up by my brother. I know it’s my brother.” “I started out with painkillers and went to heroin. I used because something was taken from me as a kid that I wanted back. My brother. I started using ten years ago and it turned into a full blown addiction seven years ago. I came here because I knew if I didn’t quit using I was going to die.” “I’ve already found a kundalini studio to practice in at home. It’s already in my recovery plan. It’s giving me a connection to something that I’ve obviously been missing for 37 years and seven months, since my brother died.” “I got my first taste of how powerful Kundalini is a few days ago. I left my body for a second. And after that I was hell bent determined to get a full dose. And the next time it was absolute glory. And since then I’ve been able to meditate and slow my breathing down enough to get a little taste of it just through breath. And if it’s all in my mind, I’m comfortable with that. It’s all in my mind anyway.” “I had a craving the other day and I talked to Lily about it and we did a meditation to Ganesh, the remover of obstacles. We just did a meditation with a chant, and it helped.” “That’s the thing I was looking for with drugs — this feeling of bliss and comfort within my own body — and now I have it inside me. So that’s what I’m gravitating towards. Right now it’s going to be two nights a week when I get home, and it might even become more.” “I’m a Christian, but I’m more religious than spiritual. I used to go to church but the deeper I got into my addiction, I sort of stopped. I’ve done more praying than church going. Now I think I kind of have them both — the spiritual thing and the religious thing — working for me.” “I feel prepared to go back home. Adamantly, yes. No more using. It’s a pretty good feeling. I was using between 100 and 200 dollars a day — I spent $450,000 over ten years. Kundalini is a lot cheaper. I’m ready to get on with my life.” Kundalini yoga is a vital step in a 10-part program at The Anzelmo Ibogaine Center. We have found that this ancient Hindu practice will not only increase vitality but is directly able to re-direct cravings into emotional balance. The Anzelmo Ibogaine Center is an integrated clinic dedicated to healing severe addiction, deep trauma, and other challenges that life hands us. Our treatment philosophy combines the best of Western treatment modalities with ancient healing techniques and traditional indigenous wisdom.

ewebmarketing1@gmail.com, , Holistic Therapy for Addiction Treatment, Ibogaine Treatment, 0At The Anzelmo Ibogaine Center we use plant medicines to help clean your system of opiates, but also to help you to see yourself: your habits, your pains, wounds, traumas, and the roots and cause of your addictions or depression, in such a powerful and clear way. Ibogaine can show you why you have your anger, stubbornness, loneliness, separation, sadness, reactions, and emotional triggers. It can help you release the shame, guilt, and self-judgement. And can help you forgive yourself, for all the suffering you caused others, yourself, and the wrongs that have been done to you. Two promising studies published in the American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse found that Ibogaine Treatment should be further studied as a treatment for opioid dependence – especially for those for whom other treatment options have not worked. Found in the iboga plant of Africa, ibogaine is a naturally occurring psychoactive substance that is used to treat various addictions including alcohol, methamphetamines, heroin, methadone, and food. It’s also effective treating anxiety and depression, as well as other types of mental illness. Both studies were sponsored by MAPS, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies. The study in Mexico, which came out on May 25, had 30 participants. 12 of 30 reported 75% reduction in their drug use 30 days following treatment, and 33% reported no opioid use three months later. “Iboga could give an opiate addict several months to half a year of freedom from craving, and a period of time in which to get their life together and learn to face things straightforwardly, directly and honestly. Iboga will not do the work for you,” said one participant in the Mexico study. The second study, from New Zealand, which came out April 12, showed that a single dose of ibogaine could reduce withdrawal symptoms for heroin and opioid users, and result in complete abstinence from the drug or a consistent reduction for up to 12 months. One patient in the New Zealand study who was not properly monitored by the medical staff, died. It’s unclear what caused her death, exactly. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that the opioid epidemic caused 91 deaths per day in the United States in 2016. The Anzelmo Ibogaine Center is an integrated clinic dedicated to healing severe addiction, deep trauma, and other challenges that life hands us.

Ibogaine Saved my Life

And can help you forgive yourself, for all the suffering you caused others, yourself, and the wrongs that have been done to you. A recent patient, Kim, shares her story: “It’s been 77 days since I got to The Anzelmo Wellness Center and I’m still sober and I feel great. Every morning I wake up and I tell myself what I’m grateful for. I go to two to three meetings a day. I have a sponsor, I’m doing service work. I’m going to talk to schools during Drug Week. When I was in high school, my drug program was focused on weed and drinking they never talked about hard drugs ever. I feel like schools need to concentrate on heroin. They need to know they really could ruin their lives if they use. That’s my dream, to go around talking to kids about meth, crack, heroin and how it ruins your life.” “I don’t know if it will help but I look really young and I feel like they would actually listen. Maybe not, but even if I’m talking to 200 kids and just one kid came up afterward and started talking to me, I would feel so good about that.” “I will tell them how I started using and how I lost everything. I’d tell them about my dad, who was a drunk, and how I grew up in a my dad’s friend’s bar, serving drinks to the old guys who would tip me because I was cute. My dad worked there, he’d get super drunk and then we’d walk home at five in the morning together.” “I was introduced to drinking when I was 11 by my sister. I started with Bacardi 151. I thought I was so cool. Then I started smoking pot, the older kids thought it was cute that I smoked. Then at 13 I was doing coke, experimenting with ‘shrooms and ecstasy. Then my dad stopped drinking and my mom started drinking.” “My boyfriend was abusive mentally, physically, and he cheated on me. We were together for 8 years. He was a dealer so girls would throw themselves at him. When I was 19 I got into a car accident and I fractured my pelvis in two spots and I was prescribed Oxycontin. I was on bed rest for six months. When they stopped prescribing it to me, I tried to get them on the street but they were really expensive so one day my boyfriend said “Just do a bag, it will make you feel better.” So I did. And then I just started using heroin because it was cheaper than Oxy. I sniffed it at first and then a month later I was shooting it.” “I was using it for three years and when I got pregnant I was clean for nine months and when I was breastfeeding. But at the hospital they gave me pain meds to help after the pregnancy and that started me using again. I was still a good mom. I was working at a bank. But in 2011, I got a settlement from my car accident — $90,000 — and I spent it all on drugs. I was spending $1,000 every other day for my habit – three stacks every two days. My son and I were in and out of shelters, living on other people’s couches. I moved back in with my abusive boyfriend and Children’s Services were called on me four or five times but somehow I beat it every time. I tried to get clean a million times. I would go to detox, rehab, detox, rehab, for three years. I would get out of the program and immediately be using again. In April of 2017 my new boyfriend, Christian, died of an overdose.” “I went to his funeral and I watched him get put in the ground and I thought, “That could be me in the ground and Dominic standing where I am.” A week later I asked my mom to meet me at a park. I hadn’t talked to her for 3 years. I told her I really need to get help. It so happened that a friend of her’s had a son who had heard about Ibogaine Institute so I went. I didn’t know anything about plant medicines.” “I’ve been in and out of more than 20 rehabs. The Anzelmo Wellness Center wasn’t like any of those. At the rehabs, they just wanted you in and out. They didn’t really care about how I was doing. They were about making money. When I first got here, I was really resistant. But the staff never gave up. I almost got kicked out like 4 different times and they actually cared enough to knock some sense into me. They listened when I talked and they gave me amazing advice. They’re like a family. The doctors and the nurses were so great. I gave the nurses so much shit but they took it and never got offended and just tried to help me.” “The ibogaine cleaned my system, but it was the ayahuasca that really saved me. It’s not like you’re tripping, it makes you dig deep into your soul and see things that you never wanted to deal with — the things that got you using in the first place. I was in so much pain from my car accident, my body hurt so badly. But during one night of ayahuasca, I just started to accept the pain. I finally gave up and accepted it. And my body hasn’t hurt since then. As soon as I accepted it, it went away instantly. My back has not hurt since then.” “And then I dealt with Christian’s death. I kept avoiding it during the first five ayahuasca ceremonies, but on the sixth night I accepted it and I cried and cried about it. I can’t say my grief is gone but I’ve accepted that he’s gone. The heaviness lifted. I still think about him all the time.” “Now I’m living in a sober house in Florida and I have no desire to use anymore. I work the program, too. The medicine saved me, but after you leave the Institute you can’t expect to stay clean if you don’t go to meeting and do service work and have a sponsor and work the steps. I do all of that. I feel great. I am so happy. I wake up every morning and say what I’m grateful for. I’m so proud of myself.” The Anzelmo Wellness Center is an integrated clinic dedicated to healing severe addiction, deep trauma, and other challenges that life hands us.

Ibogaine and QT Prolongation
ewebmarketing1@gmail.com, , Holistic Therapy for Addiction Treatment, Ibogaine Treatment, 0At The Anzelmo Wellness Center we use plant medicines to help clean your system of opiates, but also to help you to see yourself: your habits, your pains, wounds, traumas, and the roots and cause of your addictions or depression, in such a powerful and clear way. Ibogaine can show you why you have your anger, stubbornness, loneliness, separation, sadness, reactions, and emotional triggers. It can help you release the shame, guilt, and self-judgement. And can help you forgive yourself, for all the suffering you caused others, yourself, and the wrongs that have been done to you. Ibogaine can be dangerous to those with heart conditions – most of the fatalities reported from ibogaine treatments are as a result of QT Prolongation. “After each heartbeat, your heart’s electrical system recharges itself in preparation for the next heartbeat. This process is known as repolarization, according to the Mayo Clinic. “In long QT syndrome, your heart muscle takes longer than normal to recharge between beats. This electrical disturbance, which often can be seen on an electrocardiogram (ECG), is called a prolonged QT interval.” QT Prolongation is often the result of abnormalities in the heart’s electrical system that are either inherited or acquired, due to a medication or an underlying medical condition. A side effect of ibogaine is that it can slow the heartbeat of healthy individuals with normal heart rates, and increase QT intervals. In a patient with normal heart rhythms, this won’t cause any risk. But in patients who have preexisting QT prolongation, ibogaine can cause the heart to slow too much, posing a risk for ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden death. The staff at The Anzelmo Wellness Center performs an exhaustive medical assessment and rigorous cardiovascular monitoring prior to treatment to prevent any risk to our patients. This includes a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s medical background and current medical conditions. Each patient is given an EKG (electrocardiogram) which measures the electric impulses that pass through the heart, causing it to contract and release. Our doctors are trained specifically to screen for those who have QT prolongation. Those with an abnormal EKG reading will be seen by an outside cardiac specialist who will map the heart through a 3D rendering to see how it will react under stressful conditions. Anyone that we treat — normal heart rate or not — will have a heart monitor affixed to their chest during the entire treatment. A doctor and two nurses are with the patient for the duration of the treatment, and an EMT and ambulance are on standby throughout the night. Those who don’t pass muster with the outside cardiologist can still be treated with ibogaine, but instead of a “flood” dose — 10–25 mg/kg of body weight — they will be given a microdose regimen of the medicine, which means they will get the same amount as a flood dose, but spread out over 14 days. That way there is never a high enough concentration in the body to cause a QT prolongation, but the end of the 14 days, they will have taken enough to end their addiction without withdrawal. It will be administered slowly enough to keep the slow heart rate from being affected.

Our treatment philosophy combines the best of Western treatment modalities with ancient healing techniques and traditional indigenous wisdom.

In the late 1800s, the Bantu tribe of Gabon retreated into the rain forest of Equatorial Gabon to avoid French Christian Missionaries who wanted to eradicate the tribe’s traditional beliefs. In the jungle they met pygmy tribes who introduced the Bantu to Tabernanthe iboga — a small rain forest shrub that contains hallucinogenic alkaloids. The Bwiti religion rose up around the sacramental plant — a combination of pygmy, Bantu, and Christian beliefs combined into a new, hallucinogen-based religion. The root bark of the iboga plant is an entheogen — allowing users to “see God within.” Instead of hearing about God in church as with traditional Christianity, the Bwiti get to see God for themselves, thanks to iboga. “In church, they speak of God. With iboga, you live God,” according to one Bwiti practitioner, writes Wesley Thoricatha in Psychedelic Times. Many Bwitists commonly believe that Gabon has a connection with the biblical Garden of Eden, and iboga with the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, according to the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance. According to GITA: “Bwiti incorporates elements of ancestor worship as well as animism, which holds that all things hold within them the energy that was produced during the first moment of creation and that by learning the language of the spirit of things it is possible to communicate with God.” The Bwiti hold weekly mass ceremonies in which the tribe dances, plays music, feasts, and imbibes low doses of sacramental iboga to facilitate a feeling of joy and connection within the tribe. During an initiation ceremony — held for a new member of the Bwiti tribe, which opens itself to anyone who would like to join — the initiate takes a large dose of iboga over a three day period. The initiate lies on the floor of a church, watched over by a “mother” and “father” who oversee the initiation process. Other tribe members will play the mougongo, “a monochord usually fashioned out of a single bent piece of wood and a taut string, and a ngombe, or a ritual harp with eight strings often fashioned out of fishing line,” along with rattles, bells, sticks, and drums, according to the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance. “Large doses of ibogaine can result in complete disassociation with reality for extended periods of time, which can lead to powerful revelations as the initiate speaks with their ancestors or even religious figures such as Jesus, the Virgin Mary, or God. After the iboga runs its course, the initiate shares their experiences with the rest of the tribe and is then considered a full member of the community henceforth,” writes Thoricatha. “Among the Bwitis the moment of initiation is the moment of greatest illumination and must be taken into consideration for the rest of the initiates’ life: in each moment of crisis, the Bwitist goes back to the time of initiation, thus putting himself at the best strategic point of observation., writes Giorgio Samorini in the journal Integration. “During the vision, the initiate undertakes long journeys to the land of the dead, who serve as mediators with the divine. He may also encounter his ancestors or other persons known to him. Others find celestial figures during their journey, the Virgin Mary, Jesus Christ, St. Peter, shedding their divine light. Others have direct encounters with God. The hallucinations experienced during the trip are full of profound symbolic meaning, personal as well as cultural; the world of the jungle with its trees, plants, and animals acts as an experimental and imaginative substrate for the visions. Always during the vision the spirits of the dead, Jesus Christ or any other entity tells the initiate his new name, the initiatory name (nkombo), a name which is added to the initiate’s proper names,” writes Samorini. “Following the three days and nights of the initiation, the initiate wakes up to what he considers a new life. Sometimes energetic intervention on the part of the officiating member is necessary to wake up the initiate and at times the loss of consciousness may continue into the following days. This is interpreted as a positive sign since if is taken to be contact with the divine. Only on rare occasions has the initiate failed to wake up and died. As in the rare instance of a “bad trip”, iboga is not considered the cause, it is the individual who is responsible, because of his impurity and bad thoughts,” Samorini explains.

Suboxone Detox
ewebmarketing1@gmail.com, , Addiction Treatment, Holistic Therapy for Addiction Treatment, 0At The Anzelmo Wellness Center we use plant medicines to help clean your system of opiates, but also to help you to see yourself: your habits, your pains, wounds, traumas, and the roots and cause of your addictions or depression, in such a powerful and clear way. Our unique approach walks you through your work to have deeply entrenched patterns fall away to be replaced with new habits and the discipline to resolve future cravings, create supportive relationships, resolve past wreckage, and get back to building the life you dream about. Many heroin users turn to suboxone to get off dope. But at the The Anzelmo Wellness Center, we know how hellish it is to get off of suboxone. We talked to our patient Andrew, who came here to get off of suboxone, about how hard it is to detox from a drug that is just as addictive as heroin. “I tried to stop taking it, but I couldn’t function. You get restless leg syndrome, you’re sick, depressed, confused, sweating, you have diarrhea, you’re vomiting, you’re confused, and sleep is out of the question. “Doctors claim that it’s easy to get off of, but it’s not true. They don’t really talk about that part too much, but if you ask, they say it’s not a big deal. But it is a big deal. Its awful. It’s like heroin withdrawals, not perhaps as intense, but they last for weeks instead of days. It’s just awful. I’ve been trying to get off myself but that’s a hopeless situation. I came here because I was desperate.” “When you try to go off on your own, you can’t do anything. You get desperate. You get restless leg syndrome, you’re sick, depressed, confused, throwing up, sweating, you have diarrhea, you’re vomiting and sleep is out of the question.” “The drug itself is very sticky. It sticks to your brain receptors, it just hangs on to your brain and it doesn’t let go. It’s a living hell to get it out of your system.” “Doctors put you on it too easily. The idea is that you’re getting free of your addiction by taking this, you’re taking something safer than heroin, but suboxone is the definition of addictive.” “People stay on it for their whole lives unless they want to go through several months of hell. I’ve heard that people who go off it, it takes about a year until they feel normal. I tried to stop taking it, but I couldn’t function. That’s why I’m here.” The Anzelmo Wellness Center is an integrated clinic dedicated to healing severe addiction, deep trauma, and other challenges that life hands us.

At The Anzelmo Wellness Center we use plant medicines to help clean your system of opiates, but also to help you to see yourself: your habits, your pains, wounds, traumas, and the roots and cause of your addictions or depression, in such a powerful and clear way. Ibogaine and ayahuasca can show you why you have your anger, stubbornness, loneliness, separation, sadness, reactions, and emotional triggers. It can help you release the shame, guilt, and self-judgement. And can help you forgive yourself, for all the suffering you caused others, yourself, and the wrongs that have been done to you. Many of our patients come to us having been prescribed suboxone in an effort to get off heroin. Suboxone (Buprenorphine/naloxone) has eclipsed methadone in recent years as a treatment for those coming off of heroin. It was originally intended as a detox medication to be taken short term while one goes through withdrawal from heroin. But it’s often not prescribed that way. Former heroin users are often on suboxone for years because once it’s been in their system, getting off of it is just as bad, if not worse, than getting off heroin. The pills themselves cost between about $200 and $700 a month without insurance, and a pill has to be taken once a day. Over time, it can fog your brain, users say, making you feel dull. “You’re just not altogether there, but people are used to seeing you on dope, so they don’t notice,” says one Anzelmo Wellness patient. “Normally I’m quick and funny, but not when I’m on suboxone.” But that’s not the worst part, getting off suboxone is the worst part. One patient, Andrew, is at The Anzelmo Wellness Center not to get off heroin, but to with the Suboxone Detox, He tried for months to get off it on his own, but couldn’t because the withdrawals were so awful. “I tried to stop taking it, but I couldn’t function. You get restless leg syndrome, you’re sick, depressed, confused, sweating, you have diarrhea, you’re vomiting, you’re confused, and sleep is out of the question. Ibogaine, on the other hand, is completely non-addictive. Patients take it one time and are are completely done with their withdrawal symptoms by the time they wake up. Some patients experience restless leg syndrome in the days immediately following their treatment, and some will have trouble sleeping, but there are no other symptoms. Cravings are gone, and there is zero sickness. And you never have to take it again.

At The Anzelmo Wellness Center we have carefully selected various therapies as part of our detox plan and recovery program. These therapies help you on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level, in order to make your transition into a sober lifestyle as easy as possible after your Ibogaine treatment. When a recovering addict opens up new body and mind pathways of thought, emotion and being, new vibrations are created, thus disrupting and decreasing previous addiction memory pathways. As you remove your old habit — addiction — we want to replace it with new habits: positive and supportive techniques that you will take with you when you leave and start rebuilding your life. Our Qigong instructor talked to us about how Qigong works, and why it’s so effective for those suffering from heroin addiction: “In the first days, they don’t feel strong enough to do the practice, they don’t see the sense in it. Most of them have never heard about it, they don’t know what it is, it doesn’t make sense to them. But after a few days you don’t need to know, you just practice and you feel it . You’re going to find out by yourself, which I think is a better way. Qigong is not something that you read. It’s something that you do. It’s a practice, and you can not compare it with anything. You have to discover Qigong. And that’s what we’re trying to inspire.” “Once you feel it, then you know there is something very strong and powerful that runs through your body. You will realize that it’s a very sacred and spiritual practice. You will realize you are alive and that you are really connected with everything around you and everybody. Then life will start to proceed in a different way. We start to perceive life in a different way, in a more connected way, in a more peaceful way, in a more joyful way. And the blessing that this practice gives to us is that we are free to go anywhere and we don’t need anyone to find the results that we are looking for.” “Well, maybe at the beginning we need someone to guide us to stand up properly, and how to breathe and remind us how to hold the body and to relax but once we have these general guidelines, we can do it on our own and you don’t need to know too much to be able to practice on your own. You can do it just by standing properly and having the right intention. And sooner or later you are going to feel the energy flowing all over you.” Qigong is a vital step in at The Anzelmo Wellness Center. We have found that this ancient Chinese practice will not only increase vitality but is directly able to re-direct cravings into emotional balance…in 5 short minutes.
