I sat down again with Miles Kessler, an old friend and long-time aikido and meditation teacher, to explore the urgent issue of polarization. We talk about why societies feel more divided than ever, how conflict shows up in the body and mind, and what we can learn from years of aikido, meditation, and peace-building projects in places like Cyprus and the Middle East.

Miles brings deep wisdom from his work in conflict zones and spiritual practice, and we reflect on the tools that actually help people stay open in the face of division. We also touch on burnout, the limits of dialogue, and why embodied presence is so vital when the stakes are high.
