Embody your Wild with Eli Buren

In this episode I speak with Eli Buren, a dedicated practitioner of over 20 years in yogic embodiment, awareness, martial arts, and outdoor leadership. He walks his talk with practices like qi gong, tea ceremony, sensory awareness, skin time and reverence. He describes how deepening our relationship with nature helps us appreciate each other more, and why it’s so important to become adept at both yin/yang aspects within ourselves: sharpness & softness, ferocity & vulnerability. He talks about how romantic love relationships naturally invite us into a place of being disturbed, and how turning toward discomfort can amplify intimacy and vitality. He shares why it’s so important for men to spend time with other men, gives helpful tips for women and shares powerful methods from his international men’s retreats.
