#385 Embodied Wisdom: Navigating Fear, Martial Arts, and Meditation w/ Michael Holt

Kyle Kingsbury Podcast

In this episode, I welcome Michael Holt, a multifaceted being known for his expertise in men's groups, meditation, and martial arts. The talk covers Michael's journey from a troubled youth in Philadelphia to becoming a meditation and martial arts expert based in Los Angeles. We discuss the profound impacts of art therapy, personal struggles with emotional stability, and transformative experiences with meditation and spiritual practices. Michael shares insights on his unique men's work organization, Savage and Saint Collective, which combines the intensity of martial arts (the Savage) with the peaceful depth of meditation (the Saint). Additionally, the episode touches on the significance of cultivating both a savage and saintly aspect of oneself for balanced self-governance. Michael's experiences with unique spiritual practices such as grave and darkness retreats offer a glimpse into his journey of deep emotional healing and self-discovery. The conversation highlights the importance of meditation and the pursuit of personal growth, especially for men dealing with fear and emotional trauma.
