Time Shifting: Creating More Time to Enjoy Your Life

By Stephan Rechtschaffen

Book Overview

Do you ever feel so rushed that you can't stop to think? That you don't have enough time to do your job well--or even to read this paragraph carefully? That's because you spend your time either speeding forward or thinking about the past few minutes, without really concentrating on living in the present moment. We all have the capacity to look at time--and, by doing so, to step into a new awareness of it and experience its next dimension, time freedom. But we cannot just look with our eyes and understand with our mind, we must experience it with all the facets of our being; with all our senses, with our perceptions, our feelings, and our heart. Timeshifting is the method for doing this, and how you can learn timeshifting is what this breakthrough book is about. In Timeshifting, Stephan Rechtschaffen teaches us that time is subjective, not objective, and that we can take back control of our lives by changing the way we think about time. We can relearn how to live our lives to their fullest potential; to have the time to enjoy ourselves, our families, and our jobs. Timeshifting is not about time management; it won't teach you how to do more in a shorter period of time. It will, however, give you back all the time you need to accomplish what you want, and you'll find that you are more relaxed, less stressed-out, and better able to enjoy the best things in life.

A must read!

This book is a great reminder of the spice and foundation one's life really depends on--that is, time. It is the non-renewable resource. I believe anyone who feels that life's circumstances has a greater hold on them, then they do on it, should read this book.I work in the crisis field, and one's job IS to give your time to others in crisis--and you can often find yourself far removed from yourself, in the name of helping,...

A Profound Perspective

Rectschaffen's book provides a profound perspective for anyone who is seeking a deeper sense of being in these times. He speaks to many audiences, whether you are just beginning your search or further along. I am retired and his words on aging struck a very clear chord with me. I am only sad that I was not exposed to these views years ago. He is definitely on to a way of viewing the use of time in a sane and meaningful...

a new way of relating to time - with much less stress

This book has been a great gift - an extremely easy read, it has helped me to re-define my relationship to time. In a profound yet simple approach, I've found that being at the effect of time is a self-made prison - this book has helped me to be free. It's a great read.
