Time Line Therapy and the Basis of Personality

by Tad James, Wyatt Woodsmall

Superb condition, lightly age worn only. Tad James utilizes NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) to eliminate irritating behaviors or issues. The Time Line theory is that you go back to the first time you remember a particular problem, do change work, and if necessary go to subsequent times when your behavior or response, was a problem and then do additional change work to resolve it. A good addition to any therapist's library or to anyone interested in behavioral change. (phi)

About the best book on hypnotherapy I've read. I highly recommend this one to anyone who wants to understand the inner workings of our minds and emotions.

This is a good book, and I highly recommand it to people who want to have good understanding of Time Line Therapy and how the inner emotions work.

La terapia de la "Time Line" es muy efectiva desde el punto de vista de la PNL. Este libro complementa a la perfección la obra "La Estructura de la Magia" de Bandler y Grinder. Sin embargo, hay algunas teorías que ya han sido superadas. Por ejemplo: que la línea temporal pueda ser vista de dos formas diferentes según vaya de izquierda a derecha (In Time) o delante y detrás (Through time) es algo erróneo ya que la línea temporal se localiza siempre de izquierda a derecha. El hecho de percibirla delante y detrás implica que esa persona no tiene los ases del Evideon (terminología de Corrado Malanga) en la posición adecuada. Por lo tanto, en ausencia de un problema de este tipo, que es fácilmente corregible, solo hay un modo de localizar la línea temporal.
"Time Line" ofrece ejercicios útiles para navegar por la consciencia. Quizá hubiera sido digno de aprecio un mayor número de tales ejercicios para consolidar la teoría de la línea temporal.

A valuable read to accompany my NLP training. I have found Time Line Therapy to be a wonderfully useful tool.

The original text on timeline therapy with extensive exploration of metaprograms. A useful read for anyone who uses alternative change work modalities.

I enjoyed the book! I think it’s worth looking through as a reference.

I find myself going back and re-reading the transcripts that are included often.

[Riccardo · Rating 2 out of 5]

Time line therapy seems to be an off shoot or sub-branch of NLP if there is such a thing. There is an introduction to NLP which I found satisfying enough. Many of the chapters however seem to just documenting lectures given by Richard Badler (one of the founders of NLP). The book is a mish-mash of NLP techniques. The whole premise of time line therapy did not grab me at all. Not a book for me I am afraid, but for fans of NLP it might add some new insights or techniques.

Have read this ready for my course. Will read it again afterwards to clarify some points. Extremely interesting.

Time Travel idea is amazing!

I wish there were ten stars for this rating system. This book tied so many things together for me. Anyone that works as a change agent needs to read this book.

Good content but a little loose in terms of organisation and structure
