How Iboga gave Vera Sola her singing voice and cured her lifelong endometriosis. In this episode of Plantscendence, we talk to poet, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Vera Sola, whose musicianship arrived as a shot in the dark after a transformative plant medicine ceremony in 2017. Vera talks about the profound impact that entheogens, and iboga in particular, have had on her creative process, spiritual practice, and physical wellbeing, including her recovery from lifelong debilitating endometriosis. She reflects on the power of sitting with darkness, and how delving into one’s shadow self can be a means of “seeing the world through the eyes of a child.” This episode offers valuable advice for those considering embarking on their own journeys, emphasizing the importance of preparation, integration, and choosing the right practitioners.
