    139 | Iboga Integration Struggles and How I'm Getting Through It

    What happens when a psychedelic experience makes life more confusing instead of more clear? Working with Iboga soon? Enlist Lana's support. In this unguarded solo episode, Lana shares an honest update 16 months after her second Iboga experience, and reflects on how much her understanding of Iboga, "truth", and integration has changed along the way. Rather than looking back from the other side with a neat story about what it all meant, Lana speaks from within an integration that is still unfolding. After a challenging year of uncertainty, mental spirals, shifting identity, questions about love and relationships, and even moments of resentment toward the medicine, she explores what it means to keep integrating when there are no easy answers. At the center of the episode is a Bwiti teaching that has become an anchor throughout this process: the mind is not a sense. Lana explores what it has meant to return to the present moment, confirm truth through the senses, and learn to trust her direct lived experience over the stories, fears, and projections of the mind—even when those stories began with something experienced during an Iboga ceremony. This episode is about the messier side of psychedelic healing: when medicine makes things harder before they get better, when integration stretches far beyond the retreat, and when the work becomes less about finding answers and more about learning how to live with the questions. In this episode: What does it actually mean to call Iboga a “truth medicine”?The Bwiti teaching about how to find truth Distinguishing intuition from anxiety, fear, and mental projectionTrusting direct experience over the stories of the mindWhen psychedelic experiences make things worse before they make them betterWhy Iboga integration can unfold over yearsIdentity, uncertainty, relationships, and learning what you really wantFeeling resentment toward a medicine you also deeply respectThe loneliness of long-term integration and finding the right supportLearning to keep living—and moving forward—even when the mind is screaming Explore Coaching with Lana: Psychedelically Informed Consciousness Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (6 Month Program)⁠Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠⁠ (Doing the Work w/ Iboga)Focused Transformation Coaching (6 Week Program) Kanna Wellness: Get 15% off your first order with Kanna Wellness using MODERN15 at checkout Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠Blog: Field Notes by LanaYouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠ DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.

    138 | Can Psychedelics Heal Collective Trauma? w/ Rick Doblin

    After more than four decades working to bring psychedelics into legitimate scientific and therapeutic contexts, Rick Doblin is thinking about a much bigger question: What would it look like to move from healing traumatized individuals to healing traumatized families, communities, and cultures? In this episode, Lana sits down with the founder and president of MAPS to explore the next phase of psychedelic healing—from individuals to group therapy, families, communities and global humanitarian projects. Rick shares what MAPS is learning from work in Somaliland, Bosnia, Israel and beyond, including the challenge of bringing psychedelic therapy into cultures where Western psychotherapy may not be the right model. They also explore the relationship between culture and psychedelic progress, the limitations of individual healing in a traumatized world, and Rick’s long-term vision of reaching “net zero trauma” by 2070. In this episode: From individual healing to community and collective healingWhy cultural change is as important as scientific progressGroup psychedelic therapy and peer-supported modelsBringing psychedelic healing into low-resource communitiesHealing trauma in Bosnia and the BalkansCouples, families, and intergenerational traumaCulturally specific approaches to psychedelic therapyRick’s vision for “net zero trauma by 2070” Explore Coaching with Lana: Psychedelically Informed Conciousness Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (6 Month Program)Focused Transformation Coaching (6 Week Program)Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (Doing the Work w/ Iboga) Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠ Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠ Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠ DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.

    137 | LIVE from Anatha Fest: Myths about Psychedelics

    What if some of the most common beliefs about psychedelics are actually making the journey harder? In this special live episode, recorded at Anatha Fest, I unpack six common myths about psychedelic medicine work—from the idea that psychedelics will "fix" us, to the belief that bigger doses always lead to deeper healing. Drawing on my own experiences with ayahuasca, iboga, 5-MeO-DMT, coaching, and psychedelic integration, this talk explores a more grounded, nuanced approach to personal growth and transformation. Topics Covered Why psychedelics won't fix you (and why that's actually good news)The difference between insight and integrationWhat it means to be an active participant in your healingWhy the medicine won't tell you what to doThe myth that bigger doses are always betterMicrodosing, nervous system readiness, and the power of going slowNatural vs. synthetic psychedelics: a nuanced conversationSpiritual ego, psychedelic identity, and bypassingWhy healing isn't a shortcutThe role of preparation and integration in lasting transformationThe importance of psychological safety in psychedelic workAbout Anatha Fest 🎟️ Join me at Anatha Fest this August (use my link for 10% off): ⁠Get Your Anatha Fest Tickets Here⁠My Anatha Fest BTS VlogThis talk was recorded live at Anatha Fest, one of my favourite wellness-forward music and arts festivals in Canada.

    136 | Kanna for Psychedelic Integration

    What do you actually do after a psychedelic experience ends… but the process doesn’t? In this episode, I explore one of the most underrated tools for psychedelic integration: kanna — a legal, non-psychedelic, psychoactive plant that supports emotional regulation, mental clarity, and nervous system balance. While psychedelics are known for their intensity, insight, and disruption, the reality is that most of the work happens after the experience in the messy, everyday moments. Integration can feel overwhelming, confusing, and hard to navigate. This episode introduces kanna as a gentle, daily support tool that helps you stay with what’s already unfolding. What you'll learn: What psychedelic integration really looks like beyond the peak experienceWhy integration can feel overwhelmingWhat kanna is and how it works (SRI, PDE-4 inhibition, empathogenic effects)The difference between psychedelics vs. kannaHow kanna supports nervous system regulation, mood, and mental clarityWhy kanna is considered a sober-friendly alternative in social and recreational spacesThe role of presence in integration — and why it matters more than insightHow kanna can support identity rebuilding after psychedelic experiencesReal-life ways to use kanna during integrationShow Links: A Guide to Kanna [download]Kanna Wellness - MODERN15 for 15%1:1 Coaching with Lana - $500 off all April  [apply]Diaspora Diaries - Vlog series on YouTubeExplore Coaching with Lana: Psychedelically Informed Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (6 Month Program)Focused Transformation Coaching (6 Week Program)Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (NEW-now enrolling) Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠ Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.

What happens when a psychedelic experience doesn’t expand your sense of self, but instead collapses it?

This is a deeply disorienting phase where your old sense of self no longer fits, leaving you questioning who you are, what you want, and how to move forward. Drawing from my own experience nearly a year after Iboga, I share what this process actually feels like, and how to navigate it with more clarity, stability, and self-trust. This episode offers grounded, practical psychedelic integration support for anyone experiencing anxiety, confusion, loss of identity, or emotional overwhelm after a psychedelic journey. What you'll learn: What a post-psychedelic identity crisis isWhy psychedelics can trigger ontological shock and ego destabilizationCommon symptoms: anxiety, low self-trust, confusion, lack of directionHow to ground yourself when your sense of self feels unstableMastering the mind and anxietyThe importance of emotional care and nervous system regulationActivating sobriety and prioritize clarityHow to reconnect with yourself through everyday lifeWhy curating your inputs (social media, content) matters, and how to do itReframing identity crisis as personal expansion and transformationMentioned in this episode: Kanna Wellness: MODERN15 to get 15% off your first order (Canada only)1:1 Psychedelically-Informed coaching: $500 OFF for March + April start datesPersonalized Coaching ProgramDoing the Work w/ Iboga: Iboga Prep & IntegrationStay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠ Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration JournalFREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠ DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.

    134 | How to Actually Step Into Your Power

    $500 OFF during March: ⁠Psychedelically Informed ⁠⁠Coaching ⁠NEW: Custom Coaching Program Application⁠ We often confuse power with control — being right, getting our way, influencing outcomes. But control isn’t power. It’s conditional, and it drains us. In this episode, I explore a different definition: True power is the conscious exercise of choice. We talk about how trying to control people, outcomes, and timing actually gives our power away — and how choosing our perception, response, and energy brings it back. This is especially relevant for anyone navigating growth or psychedelic integration. Insight alone doesn’t create change. Practicing choice does. What You’ll Learn: The difference between control and conscious choiceWhy control burns energyHow to shift from reaction to responseWhy space and pace are essential for integrationHow coaching helps you reclaim authorship of your energyExplore Coaching with Lana: $500 OFF during March: Psychedelically Informed Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (6 Month Program)Custom Coaching Program ApplicationFocused Transformation Coaching (6 Week Program)Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (NEW-now enrolling) Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠⁠Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠ DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.

    133 | Nine Months After Iboga: Life is the Integration Plan

    Released on my 35th birthday, this episode is a cozy conversation between me and one of my closest friends about iboga integration. We discuss what life has been like in the nine months since I had a shocking Iboga experience. One that allowed me to access the source of deepest shame within myself, after six years of working with psychedelic medicine. Since then, I have been given the opportunity to transform my relationship with that shame. This is a cozy story time style episode where I reflect on everything I have been learning, integrating, releasing and opening up to, after iboga at etereo. I definitely haven't "figured it all out", and I am in still in process. This is a glimpse into it the inner work that helped me befriend my shadowiest shadow. Show Links: ETÉREO: Center for Truth @etereo__baja Doing the Work w/ Iboga Topics covered: What Iboga reveals about self-deception, truth, and identityThe shock and grief phase of post-Iboga integrationWhy integration often feels harder before it feels lighterSlow healing vs. making healing your whole personalityAnxiety, thought spirals, and learning not to act from themReleasing control, oversharing, and curated self-imageCultural shame, father wounds, and returning to the BalkansCreativity as integration (photography, fashion, expression)Entering a secure romantic relationship after years of singlenessAnxious attachment, earned security, and emotional regulationLiving long-distance as part of the medicine’s curriculumWhy “life is the integration plan”Stepping away from facilitation and the savior roleChoosing to enjoy life without abandoning depth or devotion

    132 | The Belief Paradox: They’re Not Real, Yet They Run Our Lives

    Beliefs aren’t real — and yet they shape our lives in very real ways. In this opening episode of Season Six, Lana explores a paradox that sits at the very root of personal development, consciousness work, and psychedelic integration: beliefs are not truth… yet they determine how we experience reality. Lana breaks down what beliefs actually are (and what they aren’t), why we need them to function, and how outdated belief systems quietly run our lives long after they’ve stopped serving us. This episode is an invitation to step out of unconscious patterning and into agency — to see your beliefs not as fixed truths, but as stories you are actively participating in, reinforcing, and therefore capable of updating. As Lana explains, you may not be able to control everything that happens to you —but you can influence how you interpret it, the meaning you give it, and how you respond. That’s the power of belief systems. What You'll Learn: How beliefs differ from objective truth — yet why they still matter deeplyHow beliefs shape perception, energy, behavior, and resultsWhy many of our core beliefs are inherited unconsciously in childhoodHow beliefs that once protected us often become the very things that limit usA real coaching story that illustrates how outdated beliefs create burnout and stagnationWhy changing beliefs isn’t about “positive thinking,” but about alignment and agencyExplore Coaching with Lana: Psychedelically Informed Consciousness Coaching (6 Month Program)Focused Transformation Coaching (6 Week Program)Iboga Integration & Prep Coaching⁠⁠⁠ (NEW-now enrolling) Stay Connected to Modern Psychedelics: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@modernpsychedelics⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠Modern Psychedelics YouTube⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠www.modernpsychedelics.net⁠⁠Substack: The Healthy Ego⁠⁠ Free Resources: FREE Iboga Preparation Guide⁠FREE Set Better Goals⁠FREE Integration Journal ⁠FREE Intention Setting Journal⁠FREE Psychedelic Ceremony Checklist⁠FREE Playlists for Psychedelic Journeys + Integration⁠ DISCLAIMER: Modern Psychedelics does not endorse or support the illegal consumption of any substances.
