#47 - Sjana Elise: Ayahuasca vs. Ibogaine: Different Paths, Different Lessons

Yoga teacher and wellness guide Sjana Elise came to Beyond seeking cognitive enhancement and walked away with a sense of divine liberation. In this conversation with host Talia Eisenberg, she opens up about her transformational experience with Ibogaine, including how it brought her peace, clarity, and a renewed connection to self, spirit, and service.

Sjana reflects on her lifelong struggles with depression, ADHD, and suicidal ideation, and how those challenges led her to yoga and eventually to Ibogaine therapy. She contrasts Ibogaine with ayahuasca, emphasizes the importance of surrender, and speaks candidly about integration, dreams, and cultivating a new relationship with presence, intention, and her own voice. The episode also explores how this powerful medicine transcends addiction treatment to offer deep healing for anyone ready to meet themselves fully.

Sjana Elise is an Australian yoga teacher, content creator, and wellness advocate known for her poetic presence and deeply personal storytelling. With a background in photojournalism and a passion for embodiment and mental health, she shares her journey with honesty and grace to inspire others toward healing.
