Turning Points: Time Shifting – an interview with Stephan Rechtschaffen, MD

What’s important is taking the first step in moving from aging to sage-ing.  Whether you do your eldering work alone or in socialized settings at workshops and meditation retreats, or through solo meditation and journal writing, remember that the work of integrating body, mind, and soul requires time and commitment…you can begin shaping your life into a noble masterpiece.”

 – Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi

 

To support you on what Reb Zalman refers to as “this pioneering journey into your unmapped potential,” whether you are young or old, Sage-ing® International offers 3 categories of educational programs, each with its own unique flavor.

The Signature Programs

serve as an excellent introduction to sage-ing’s core topics (Images of Aging, Life Review, Forgiveness, Facing Mortality, Legacy, and Service).  They provide the tools and resources needed to explore the aging years in order to navigate the second half of life with greater understanding and purpose. 

 

The World Wisdom Programs

allow participants to explore cultural traditions and perspectives across the globe on aging and spirituality to deepen their understanding of their own aging years and to enhance their “Sage-ing tool-box.”

 

The Enrichment Programs

supplement and broaden SI’s range of educational opportunities by inviting guest presenters who are accomplished authors, innovators, Sage-ing® Leaders and other creative professionals, to facilitate workshops and webinars that reflect their areas of study and mastery of topics related to aging more consciously.

Sage-ing International presents a Turning Points Interview

At the beginning of 2023, Sage-ing International announced a new program, Turning Points, a series of highly inspirational interviews featuring amazing thought leaders who have inspired many people on their conscious aging journeys. The feedback from both interviewees and participants has been so overwhelmingly positive, that the team has decided to offer the remaining interviews as single sessions.


What makes these interviews so unique is that they do not focus on the careers and successes of these accomplished thought leaders; rather, they focus on the significant turning points in their lives, the times of struggle and transformation along with the wisdom gained from their own experiences of uncertainty, missteps, and difficulties. From their shared stories, we will learn more about how these difficulties in life have the power to lead to meaningful new beginnings. We will be inspired to reflect on those “dark nights” in our own lives and to adopt some of these valuable learnings of others.

February 27th – Stephan Rechtschaffen, MD

Stephan Rechtschaffen, MD, author of Timeshifting, is the creator and visionary of Blue Spirit Costa Rica in Nosara – and a founder of Omega Institute. He established the Nosara Longevity Center to provide those coming to Blue Spirit the opportunity to experience optimal well-being and longer life – through aligning with the surrounding natural world. Recognizing that many plants and creatures live far extended and healthier lives than humans – heeding these lessons can contribute to our own well-being and life balance. Through understanding what keeps us healthy, instead of simply waiting to treat disease – learning the lessons of nature and our ancestors, combined with new longevity scientific and medical studies – we can develop daily practices to maintain well-being and vitality far earlier. Thus becoming less likely to get caught in the chronic disease cycle of aging.
