Physician, author, and Founder of Blue Spirit Costa Rica and the Omega Institute in New York, Stephan Rechtschaffen is a serial entrepreneur with a passion for building successful and thriving businesses which have a positive impact in the world. He’s an anomaly; a visionary who has found multiple ways to integrate social good with financial viability. His reach goes beyond ventures, programs, and consulting, he strives to support individuals as well which he illustrates via the wisdom in his bestselling book. Time Shifting, offers a fresh perspective to help people find ease and reduce stress in a culture fixated on going faster. In alignment with this mission, to truly help people find health, longevity, and cultivate a fulfilling life, Stephan established the Nosara Longevity Center in Costa Rica at Blue Spirit which integrates science with tangible actions to help people rethink their approach to time, stress, and cultivating a long-life-well-lived. His latest venture? Combating and reducing the effects of climate change through natural treatments as opposed to pesticides - an initiative run in Costa Rica. Stephan can also be found consulting with socially integrative organizations focused on creating positive change in the world.
