The School of Whispers Podcast - A podcast by Stephanie Osborne - Mondays
Categories:
This week on the show, I’m sharing my recent journey of initiation into the spiritual tradition of the Bwiti in Gabon, Africa.What is the Bwiti?Why Gabon? Why did I choose to do this—and what did I gain from it?All of these questions (and more) are answered in this episode. For 17 days, I stayed in village and underwent three initiatory ceremonies into the Bwiti tradition. Out of respect, many details remain held in my heart, but here I’ll paint the picture: the wisdom and lessons, the trials and tribulations, and the otherworldly moments in between.Some Highlights:- Lessons in community, passion, and living fully in the moment from my time with the Gabonese people- Reflections on what is truly worthy of being held as precious in my life and spirituality- Wisdom from my big iboga initiation ceremony, and how it has inspired me to move forward in my life- A pivotal moment of choice: to descend into darkness, or to reclaim my source of radianceThis episode is both a glimpse into a sacred path and an invitation to reflect on your own journey of growth, resilience, and radiance.Youtube video: Iboga & the Brain, TBI, PTSD, and the Science of Healing with Root and WisdomIf you’d like to connect with me, you can contact me here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ [email protected] If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with me at my current clinic, Balance Point Acupuncture, you can either visit www.balancepointacu.com or call 561-615-4535 to schedule your appointment todayDISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.
