What is Time Line Therapy
The concept
of Time Line Therapy is an ancillary form of Neuro Linguistic
Programming and Ericksonian Hypnosis. This concept was first developed
in 1985, by Tad James. These thoughts were then produced through his
first book, Time Line Therapy and the Basics of Personality which
was published in 1988. The basic concept followed in Time Line Therapy
is that it helps describe the human experience with time. This therapy
has the potential to make some sense from your temporal experiences in
life. It also proves to change your perceptions on the impact of
negative emotions on you. With this information, you can create a more
meaningful future by understanding human temporal experience.
Everyone
has their individual Time Lines which is basically the method your
unconscious mind tends to encode and store your past memories. With your
Time Line, you learn to differentiate between a past memory and a future
dream. With the Time Line being an unconscious process, seldom will you
be aware of its functioning. The Time Line keeps working throughout your
life, recording and storing whatever events and memories you come across
in your lifetime.
The
benefits of the Time Line Therapy techniques that have been discovered
are that it is finally possible for one to resolve any and all
significant events that occur in a person's life. Along with this, with
the help of Time Line Therapy, it is possible to release whatever
negative thoughts or emotions a person may have in those memories. These
negative emotions can be erased from one's memory both quickly and
easily within a short period of time. The main reason one employs Time
Line Therapy is that with the release of negative thoughts, there is a
great impact and reasonable rectifications in one's behavior and nature.
If a person keeps negative thoughts pent up within them, there will be a
time when they choose, and have to release anger of their past memories.
This anger proves to be destructive to the person and may only bring
problems to the person. In the process of releasing past memories of
negative emotions, all the learning that one may have experienced in the
period is forgotten.
With the
help of Time Line Therapy, it is possible to eliminate some limiting
decisions. These limiting decisions may include thoughts that one is not
smart enough or that they will never become rich. This attitude is
developed mainly because of some wrong decision made in the history of
the person. Everyone is sure to have gone through some incident in the
past, where a different decision made then would have lead them to a
different position or situation today. So with the help of Time Line
Therapy, one reevaluates their past to change decisions they are limited
with as one's present behavior is usually dependant on the decisions
made in the past. All the decisions one makes are stored in the Time
Line, with which it is possible for one to access them.
Finally,
the most important benefit of Time Line Therapy is helping you create
your future just the way you want or picture it and then actually help
you have that incident happen in the future. It should be known that the
process of creating one's future is as powerful as the process involved
in the releasing of negative emotions and clearing all limiting
decisions one has. These three techniques are collectively considered to
be the major techniques of the Time Line Therapy.
It can be
said that Time Line Therapy is a concept in which the therapist employs
the knowledge he has on the storage of memories. Consequently, the
therapists use this knowledge to find out the effect these stored
memories produce on the individual personalities of the person. People
involved in Time Line Therapy know that the thoughts that are stored in
a person tend to mould and shape one's personality.
