In this short clip of the Dr. K show with Dr. Michael Karlfeldt and his guest Dr. Maya Shetreat. Introducing Dr. Shetreat as a bestselling author and frequent guest on the Dr. Oz Show. Dr. Shetreat shares her unconventional journey in medicine, describing how her passion for nature and plants led her to explore herbalism and medicinal mushrooms. She explains that personal experiences, including those with her son and in her marriage, significantly influenced her path into plant consciousness and alternative healing methods. The conversation delves into the concept of consciousness in plants and humans. Dr. Shetreat describes consciousness as collective, expansive, and eternal, containing a trove of universal wisdom. She emphasizes that individual consciousness is part of a greater collective, and that relationships play a crucial role in our journey of self-discovery. Dr. Shetreat also discusses how external sources, such as plants or animals, can often trigger awakenings that lead to deeper self-understanding and connection to greater consciousness. Dr. Shetreat explores the role of psychedelics and plant medicines in accessing the shadow self and facilitating transformative experiences. She explains how these substances can temporarily alter brain function, allowing for new perspectives and emotional healing. The discussion touches on studies showing the effectiveness of psychedelics in treating conditions like depression, OCD, and addiction. Dr. Shetreat emphasizes that while these substances aren't magic pills, they can create lasting changes through neuroplasticity and enhanced connection to oneself and others.

She emphasizes the healing power of plants and how traditional plant medicines can complement modern medical approaches.
