Welcome dear One!

Here is everything there is to know about the training: what I'll be teaching you, how the month is organized, and the cost.

This is a condensed, immersive learning experience. It gives you all sorts of tools to help humanity, and the heart of it is the facilitation itself, in the midst of the action. Being there, facilitating ceremonies for people.

I keep it at a very accessible price, because one of my deepest intentions is for Iboga to be in the hands of as many clear and authentic providers as possible.

Now I'm even training new facilitators! (And it brings me so much joy.)

How the training works

Iboga provider training, in the midst of the action

Everything happens in person, aside from a preparation process before you arrive. The main material matters, and the main part of the training is facilitating ceremonies for people, hands on, so you know how to apply every element.

Two glowing humans sit facing each other in the woven pavilion, a braided strand of golden light flowing between their hearts.
Direct transmission, heart to heart.
  1. I

    Before you arrive

    A preparation process at a distance, so you land ready.

  2. II

    One month in Tulum

    You have a place to stay. You receive a full retreat yourself, if you want. Then you assist in the other retreats that happen during the month, both as assistant and as facilitator. We also do various ceremonies at different times during the trainings, and if you feel the need, you can always participate in them as receiving instead of facilitating.

    All along you receive direct transmission of the modules, exercises, journeys and practices that help you embody the role of a clear channel for the Divine.

  3. III

    One month by your side

    The month after is dedicated to helping you facilitate on your own, at a distance. I'll be there to answer your questions and let you know how to handle the situations that come up, until you feel fully ready and confident to start your own retreats and lead ceremonies.

  4. IV

    Your own retreats

    You get preferential pricing on the medicine from The Iboga Source, and you're added to the network of trained facilitators of The Iboga Source. Leads come to you from the main website, and I show you how to set up other booking services to reach more people.

    A single retreat with 2 people alone can cover the whole cost of the training.

The month includes

  • 2 or more Iboga ceremonies
  • One or more 5-MeO-DMT ceremonies
  • A Celestial Breathwork Journey
  • Several meditation journeys
  • More medicine on a need basis (Microdosing days, etc.)
  • Several quick read charts that help you easily remember
  • Full integration process

(There is no shortage of medicine!)

We cover all the practical points of facilitation, safety, energetics and holding space, as well as the unseen aspects of becoming a strong and grounded guide. And you witness a variety of scenarios as we host retreats together, so you know exactly how to respond in different situations.

The curriculum

What you'll learn

Everything I teach, in four doorways. Of course, it all happens on a need basis: if there's something you'd rather not cover, we simply go over it gently.

  1. A glowing human kneels beside a young Iboga shrub with orange fruits, hands on its glowing golden roots.
    I Iboga Holding the ceremony, from the space to the sweet spot.
  2. A glowing human sits in meditation as an ocean of white and golden light opens into stars and galaxies.
    II 5-MeO-DMT Guiding people through infinity, and back.
  3. A glowing human lies on a woven mat in the bamboo pavilion as a ribbon of golden breath light rises from the chest.
    III Breath and journeys The breath, meditation journeys and somatic release.
  4. A glowing human stands upright in a column of golden light inside a woven bamboo pavilion.
    IV The clear channel The heart of everything we teach.

I · Iboga

What you'll learn about Iboga

A glowing human kneels in front of a woven bamboo pavilion, both hands resting on the glowing roots of an Iboga shrub.

The medicine and the ceremony

  • How to create a healing space wherever you are, for a powerful ceremony: protection rituals, organizing the space so everything supports the highest healing possible, and setting the intentions for the ceremony.
  • How to determine each person's tolerance for the medicine.
  • When to choose which method of administration (powder, pills, tea).
  • When to go gradual with the dosing, and when to go "all in".
  • The benefits of microdosing and macrodosing: how to give microdoses, and how to use them to learn the best way to help the soul you're working with.
  • How to read the signs of where someone is at with the medicine: the different phases, and how to get them to the perfect "sweet spot".
  • How to create powerful intentions that carry a momentum of energy through the whole ceremony. (This is truly fundamental in everything we do as facilitators.)
  • How to create crystal grids that make an energy system around the ceremony.
  • How to make potions and elixirs before ceremonies, and how to use them for certain effects during ceremonies.

Facilitation skills

Spiritual guidance
Calling upon ancestors, angels, soul family, star family: all the beings in full and total alignment with Divine Love and your Soul Blueprint.
The Soul Journey
Assisting people in fully reconnecting with their soul and getting their questions answered. Knowing when it's possible and when it isn't, when a regression is needed, and what to do in every scenario that can happen, so you always feel prepared and trustful.
Complete care
Taking care of the people in your ceremonies physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, including when they can't function by themselves and need help to go to the bathroom, throw up, drink water or blow their nose.
Their own answers
Finding what is most holding someone back, and getting them to their answers without being the one telling them. There is mastery in allowing people to realize the truth for themselves, and this is the core of your role as a facilitator.

Mastery of facilitation

  • Techniques to let the Divine speak through you, so you say what serves the highest and best outcome.
  • How to not take things personally with clients.
  • How to be a clear vessel for the medicine to pass through, from you to the client. (This is a journey of constant expansion, and it doesn't end.)
  • How to keep the challenges of your own life from affecting you during the work, and stay fully focused on the people in front of you, even when there's turmoil in your life.
  • What to do when deep emotional turmoil comes up in a ceremony: fear, panic attacks, anxiety, anger.
  • Energy healing techniques that help people release what isn't serving them anymore.
  • How to deal with entities, in case such energies show up.
  • The role of each element in the ceremony, and the best practices around music.

II · 5-MeO-DMT

5-MeO-DMT facilitator training

A glowing human meditates in the jungle at night while waves of white-gold light expand into stars and spiral galaxies.

A lot of what's true for Iboga applies to 5-MeO as well, and there are more elements specific to this medicine. Since my process involves both, you learn both.

Technical mastery

  • The correct dosage for each method of administration (vaping, vape pen, insufflation).
  • The 3 rounds technique: small, medium and high doses in succession, reassessing between each one to make sure the next is appropriate.
  • How to create a safe space for 5-MeO. It's a completely different space: it gets to be "baby-proof".

Deep understanding

  • What to do during the medicine, in all the scenarios that can present themselves. Somatic releases are possible here: people screaming, removing their clothes, having extremely deep emotional releases, needing you to guide them through, basically, infinity.
  • Reminding them of the infinite love they are, of the unity between everything, of the divinity of all things, of their eternal nature.
  • How to do energy work during the ceremony to make everything smoother.
  • How to prepare people for reactivations. The medicine can keep working with people a little while after a full ceremony, sometimes when the retreat is already done. As we understand it, this is a natural mechanism: the brain making its own 5-MeO-DMT. So you let people know ahead of time that it can happen, and you guide them on what to do if it comes once they're back home.

To convey this with the certainty and trust it asks for, you get to know it from experience. So the training holds a deep, deep attunement to the non-dual nature of reality. Everything is One: the infinite oneness of eternal love and ecstatic energy, in constant expansion, everywhere. And of course, that is also what you and I are at the most fundamental level.

III · The breath and the journeys

Breathwork and meditation journeys

Inside the woven pavilion at dawn, a glowing human rests on a mat while golden breath light spirals up into the dome.

Breathwork

  • The breathwork techniques clients use at different times for different results.
  • How to guide people through a deep breathwork journey, like the Celestial Breathwork Journey.
  • What to do when somatic releases occur: crab hands, painful moments, uncontrollable movements, crying and yelling.
  • How to breathe properly!
  • How to use your own breath as a facilitator to create energetic environments that support each person through every process of a retreat.
  • Access to my recording of the most advanced breathwork session there is, in 3D audio, with guidance that leads into a big scream and the release of many traumas. And future ones I make!

Meditation journeys

  • How to make meditation journeys that help people go deep within themselves, access higher dimensional energies, call on angels and use commands to release what no longer serves them.
  • What you can do during someone's meditation so they get the best results from it (energy healing, prayer).
  • Access to the meditations I recorded and use in my processes, and how to make your own recordings, if you'd like.

IV · The healing arts

Energy healing and somatic release

A glowing human in the jungle at dawn; a crust of dry bark breaks away from the body and golden light pours out from within.

Energy healing modalities

Working with light and with elemental angels, opening portals, setting powerful intentions, affirmations, imagination as a healing tool, asking the right questions, grounding, activating the heart space, zones of protection and transmutation, certain geometries, and more.

Advanced healing techniques

  • Releasing stuck emotions in many ways, including one I haven't shared before: connecting to a feeling in the body, and through certain steps and questions going back to the original trauma that created that tension, then alchemizing the energies of that younger self and integrating everything back into the true self.
  • Rituals and meditations to align someone (and yourself) with the Golden Timeline of their soul: the version of you that experiences the most joy, the most alignment with your true self, the most success in being who you truly are. Converging every version of you into the truest you, and embodying that fully.
  • Soul Constellations, to realign everything in someone's life and change the energies and relations between things in a beneficial way.
  • Your own gifts, talents and psychic abilities. Everyone's light has a different flavor, so the way I do things and the way you do things won't be the same, and that's perfect. You'll find your unique ways, and what you specialize in that helps the people who come to you the most.

Five more pieces of the work

  1. Music and sound How music affects the participants, and how to use certain frequencies at certain times, binaural beats and more.
  2. Physical detox Detox protocols for participants who want the total experience and come in with as clean a vessel as they can.
  3. Self-love preparation All healing is basically directly proportional to the amount of self-love you have. It creates the safety for the most buried blockages and traumas to surface.
  4. Somatic release Bioenergetic exercises, breathwork and movement that let traumas release through the body, without needing the "story".
  5. Integration Exercises to find the core motivations behind daily actions, act from the true self, see how people, activities and environments affect your energy, and lead integration calls.

The heart of everything

How to become a clear channel for the Divine

Becoming a clear channel for the Divine. Everything we teach is for this.

Embodying the highest and best perspective at all times. It allows you to be compassionate and non-judgmental with even the darkest things people want to heal.

Becoming a channel for the Divine is the main thing to embody, so that everything else in your life (In this training, and far beyond it) flows effortlessly, always. It's what brings the right people to you at the right time, the right opportunities, the right information, and everything becomes part of this one beautiful flow.

Living with intention. Starting the day setting intentions with the Divine, and continuously putting intention in the actions you take, using your soul's resonance to amplify everything you do.

The greatest thing you can learn, to be the greatest facilitator, is mastery of yourself. Every bit of growth within you is reflected in the quality of service you give humanity at this time in our history.

The heart is your connection to Source, the portal for Source to work through you.

Your guide

Learn from Alek Dumas

What is the most effective way to get someone from a state of suffering to a state of thriving?

This one question has guided pretty much everything I do.

It took me to Gabon, Africa, where I was initiated into the Bwiti tradition. It led me through Ayahuasca, breathwork, sound, energy healing, 5-MeO-DMT and hundreds of Iboga ceremonies.

Always refining. Always adding what makes it all better.

This training passes all of it on to you, so the medicine reaches more people through clear and authentic hands.

Questions

Questions about the training

How much does the Iboga facilitator training cost?

$8,888 USD. It includes your stay, a full 7-day retreat as a participant, the month of hands-on training during our retreats, a month of support after, and nearly 50% off the medicine for life.

How long is the training?

One month in person in Tulum, Mexico, then one month of support at a distance. A preparation process before you arrive gets you ready.

Is this the same as Iboga provider training?

Yes, but there is a slight difference. A provider's role is usually just to give the medicine, and ensure this is done in a safe way. A facilitator not only learns to give the medicine in a safe way, but also to facilitate its healing by being a channel for the Divine to work through the facilitator. A facilitator has access to many tools other than Iboga that make the whole experience better and deeper for the people receiving the medicine.

Does the training include 5-MeO-DMT?

Yes. There's one (Or more if needed) 5-MeO-DMT ceremony during the month, and the 5-MeO-DMT facilitation module: dosage, the 3 rounds technique, reactivations, the safe space and guiding people through somatic releases. Of course, most of the learning will come from direct experience of facilitating for others.

Do I need experience with Iboga first?

You can receive a full retreat yourself during the month, so you train from your own experience of the medicine. In your application, I'd love to hear about your past experience with Iboga or deep medicines.

Can I pay in parts?

Payment is preferably made in full before joining. If needed, a grace period can be arranged: at least $4,444 before arrival, and the balance by the middle of the process. Payment plans are available before the training starts.

What happens after the training?

You get preferential pricing on the medicine, a place in The Iboga Source network and on the Find a Facilitator page, leads from the main website, the monthly facilitator meeting, and my support while you start your own retreats.
