Discovering the flow in life

The Purpose

From Science to Wellness

If you look through the lenses of engineering, life is a wicked problem. You can't calculate it or predict it. So what do you do? You design it, you get curious, ask questions, experiment, learn something, understand it and do it all again until you get an idea of how to live your life in the most meaningful and well way possible.

Learning and emboding the flow of life and what makes us live longer, healthier & happier is my focus, here is my story so far:

Hi, I'm Federico Jara
Rolex learning center. EPFL campus, Lausanne, Switzerland
I was born into a family of Chilean architects, where design, creativity, and the arts were a constant presence in my upbringing. This environment cultivated my appreciation for structure, aesthetics, and the interplay of form and function. Yet, as much as I admired the world of architecture, my deep curiosity and profound connection to the natural world led me in a different direction: the biological sciences.

This shift felt like a natural extension of the artistic principles I grew up with, blending creativity with analytical inquiry. Leonardo da Vinci’s timeless words resonate deeply with my journey: “Study the science of art, study the art of science. Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects with everything else.” These words capture the essence of my path, illustrating how art and science are not separate domains but interconnected ways of understanding and interpreting the world.

I embarqued on a journey of understanding to try to comprehend life, my life, and to hopefully contribute to something in the world.

From Science
As a scientist, my training instilled in me the confidence to question everything, a mindset that ultimately led me to explore the transformative realm of plant medicines. These substances played a pivotal role in my self-development, deepening my understanding of both myself and the interconnected nature of the universe. This journey fueled my passion for biology and bioengineering, which began with earning a degree in biology in Chile and later specializing in bioengineering at EPFL in Switzerland.
I thought I was on the road to bring wellness to people, however I realized that this was not the way, even if tese molecules are amazying to help and aid people they are just a tool.

Working at the lab to try provide for Big Pharma for money and, being just another part of the supply chain, was not really what I felt I needed to do, the time was not right. 
to Wellness
I quit and I started to learn and research more deeply of what these molecules had guided me.  

I decided to take my wellbeing and what I was feeling seriously and realize how in reality I was negleting many things.

Driven by a quest for answers and guided by my dedication as a scientist, I embarked on a journey of discovery. I uncovered the profound significance of connection and balance, and how the energy we perceive binds us together. My exploration led me to delve into the realms of the biofield or bio-energy, uncovering its intricate connections with spirituality, psychedelics, consciousness, mental health, and well-being. I embraced Reiki, an ancient tool of bioenergy healing. I reached a point of no return in my transformative journey.

For a long time this is was me. I craved cheat days so much.

Here I could see the view after a long road. An understanding that it takes time, and becoming the person.

Today
I continue to develop my health and wellbeing. My dirty secret? I would like to live until 150 years old.

Because of it, I created Wellness by Design, a platform to keepme in line and share awareness and wisdom.

The purpose: Offer science knowledge that can really target deep transformations making a difference in the way individuals see life, health and manage their wellbeing.

''Nobody can live life for you, you are the master of your own destiny. Become aware of the unique power you can develop''.
