In this solo episode, Lana dives into the often-overlooked phase of pre-work that occurs before a psychedelic ceremony or experience. Drawing on her own experiences as she prepares for her upcoming Iboga retreat, Lana explores how life often begins to feel chaotic and overwhelming as deep-seated emotions, traumas, and blockages rise to the surface in anticipation of the journey.

The theory being proposed here is that the pre-work phase is the medicine’s way of already working with you, helping you clear the path and integrate deeper healing before you even sit down for ceremony. Lana shares personal insights, offers tips for navigating this challenging yet transformative phase, and provides guidance for those experiencing similar discomfort.

Topics Covered:

- The pre-work phase: what happens before the ceremony and why it’s crucial

- Navigating chaos: how life can feel like it's falling apart before a big ceremony
