Join me, Furkhan Dandia, on this episode of EZ Conversations as I delve into the profound world of Indigenous Spiritual Practices with our special guest, Ben Oofana. Ben shares his remarkable journey of learning and integrating these ancient traditions into modern life, shedding light on their transformative power. In this enlightening conversation, Ben opens up about his experiences with Indigenous Spiritual Practices, revealing how they became a pivotal tool in his healing journey. We explore the concept of vision quests and how they catalyze overcoming deep-seated trauma and fostering inner growth. Throughout the episode, Ben eloquently discusses the significance of various spiritual practices in facilitating connection—connection with oneself, with others, and with the natural world around us. Drawing on his wealth of knowledge and firsthand experiences, he offers valuable insights into how these practices can enrich our lives and lead to profound personal transformation. Tune in as we embark on a journey of exploration and discovery, uncovering the timeless wisdom of Indigenous Spiritual Practices and their relevance in today's world. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to the path, this episode promises to inspire and empower you on your spiritual journey. After a succession of destructive relationships in his mid-twenties, Ben realized that he was reenacting the traumas of his childhood and adolescence. Being very intuitive, he began to develop an entire series of intensive meditation practices to facilitate the awakening of the innate healing intelligence residing within the body and mind. Ben began to explore a wide range of therapeutic interventions and soon after that, returned to the ancient practices he had learned while training with Horace Daukei, a traditional Native American doctor (medicine man) from the Kiowa Tribe. Ben later went on to train with Chinese Master Sifu Li Tai Liang. He has incorporated these practices that have their roots in the ancient Taoist lineages.
