Keith Martin-Smith

Keith has long been passionate about spirituality and mysticism, about the mind and developmental psychology, about history and systems thinking, and in understanding himself and his world as deeply and intimately as possible.
He worked for Ken Wilber from 2006-2009, and is currently a featured monthly speaker on Integral Life. His areas of speciality include shadow and awakening, men’s work, book writing and creativity, and bringing Integral to everyday people.
Embodiment is also one of his core expressions, through a life-long practice and teaching of Chinese martial arts, Qi Gong, and the best of modern training modalities.
Keith has had five books published since 2009, including the award-winning “A Heart Blown Open,” which Ken Wilber said, “Written with extraordinary heart and skill, A Heart Blown Open chronicles the making of an Integral Zen master. Jun Po’s life has been as unpredictable as it has been astounding.”
Keith is also an ordained Zen priest.
