#14 Kay Phongsan - Beyond the Material: Consciousness, Energy, and Plant Medicine

Kay Phongsan’s journey began with a deep curiosity about the universe and our true nature. He earned a Ph.D. in nuclear fusion from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and worked as a researcher and university lecturer before realizing that science often explains how things work but not what they truly are. This led him to explore consciousness, spirituality, and plant medicine.Trained in Peru’s Sacred Valley, Kay discovered the profound healing power of plant medicine ceremonies. Since then, he has hosted hundreds of ceremonies in Thailand, helping others on their healing and spiritual journeys. His work integrates martial arts, energy cultivation, and powerful ceremonial chanting to guide participants toward alignment, light, and self-discovery.In this episode, Kay shares his journey from nuclear science to the depths of psychedelic healing and energetic awareness. He discusses how plant medicine shattered his materialist worldview, the intersection of science and spirituality, and the power of ceremony, breathwork, and integration.This conversation is an exploration of paradox, awakening, and surrender. Whether you're drawn to consciousness, energy work, or the mysteries of plant medicine, Kay’s insights will challenge and inspire you to look beyond the material world.Explore more of Kay’s work:https://www.instagram.com/metta.dojohttps://youtube.com/@MettaDojohttps://plantmedicineth.com/ LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTYouTube: http://youtube.com/@soulplaycollectiveSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5icEbjpZncymw6w0ksEWcbApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1726862361Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soulplay.collectiveFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554106794895NEW TO SOUL PLAY?Thanks for stopping by!
