Speaker: Jasen Chamoun
About: I will be talking about my experiences over the last 20 years being directly involved with hundreds of treatments for all sorts of conditions from heavy opiate addiction, meth use, alcohol, OCD, depression and other disorders.
Iboga physiologically resets opiate receptors to an almost pre-addictive state.
I also believe because of its anti-parasitic and anti-bacterial properties, it helps to kill parasites that excrete the toxins that make us crave whatever it is they want to eat, be it heroin, sugar, alcohol etc, helping with having little to no cravings post Iboga.
Iboga/Ibogaine heals on different levels in different ways. It has many mechanisms of action, physically and psychologically. From killing off bacteria, parasites and the like to firing new neural pathways in your brain, resetting opiate receptors, helping psychologically, emotionally and other healing we would not even be aware of as yet. There are also ways this medicine heals, on other levels, that can’t yet be fully described by science. It truly is a remarkable medicine.
After firsthand experiencing the marvellous benefits of this beautiful medicine I deeply felt the desire to help others receive the gifts Iboga/Ibogaine has to offer. I felt compelled to help others as this medicine had helped me. Hence the last 20 years being involved with Iboga/Ibogaine.
Bio: My name is Jasen, I am a 59-year-old man who was addicted to methadone and other opiates for 23 years.
My first drug intake was smoking cannabis at age 9 as I was the youngest sibling, and my brothers and sisters and their friends were already into everything which I of course delightfully aspired to. I injected heroin for the first time at age 14 and the spiral began. I thought I was a man and knew what I was doing, I knew everything! I was child in a man’s world thinking I was also already a man with full understanding.
Such was my arrogance and ignorance at that age. To give you an idea of how deep I went into the drug world, at age 15 I was selling to the working girls in Darlinghurst and Kings Cross Sydney to support my habit and lifestyle. There was an older person that used to supply my then 27-year-old working girl girlfriend and myself with heroin in larger amounts on credit which we made into smaller packets and sold to the working girls. I went onto methadone at the age of 15 and was stuck for 23 years of opiate ups and downs. Whatever I tried to be free of my addiction, it didn’t work for me. Many rehabs and different detoxes.
At age 38 at my wits end and not knowing what to do or how to be free of my addictions I was guided to this beautiful plant medicine called Tabernanthe Iboga. This beautiful plant not only helped me with my physical withdrawal, but it also helped on other levels such as emotionally and mentally, basically rewiring my brain with Ibogaine/Iboga. I felt healing on different levels, a sense of fullness that took away the thought of using opiates.
The last 20 years I have been working with this beautiful and powerful medicine. I am a happy man, though of course have still life’s ups and downs, I have 2 young children, a wife and home, something I wouldn’t have thought possible in the throes of my addiction. Thank you Iboga/Ibogaine.
