An amazing gift to mankind

In this book Dr. Rechtschaffen exposes the beauty, texture and sensation of time in an amazing way that changes your very relationship with the time that you have now and have had in the past. In the foreward to the book Thomas Moore writes "As a writer I have had one ambition: to be able to make my living by writing so that I can get up in the morning and have before me a stretch of time that will very from morning to evening and from day to day. I don't want to be free to do things, as much as I want the variety of lifes possabilities to wrap time around me in the many different colorings and tonalities that are possible." The book shows you how to live a reality like this. The book needs to be reprinted - you need a copy.

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, with little personal resources left. This book has helped me remember some important personal standards that I need to adhere too, plus great ideas on how to get my life back.Thanks,Joe

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 way. This book is well written and covers a great deal of the choices in our lives in terms of the use of one of our most precious gifts, our time. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is not satisfied with the pace and the priorities that they might have embraced as they move through life.

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.
