We are taught to believe that time is linear: as human beings, we are born, we live, then we die. But modern physics, whilst not discounting that statement, may also suggest that there is far more to it than that and time may, at different parts of our life, pass at different speeds. Steve Taylor PHD, gives this hypothesis a thorough examination in Time Expansion Experiences, taking in spiritual and psychological phenomena along the way.

We’ve all heard the phrase “my life flashed before my eyes,” right? Taylor suggests that this might well be the case, but the way we see it is akin to somebody climbing a mountain and surveying the landscape below. What, furthermore, are the effects of drugs in terms of time; does smoking marijuana slow time down or is this just a perception? (In fact, can it do the opposite?) Taylor will also introduce you to the concept of time expansion experiences, or TEEs, themselves and believe me when I say that he has dug deep within this field, using several case studies to back up his findings.

Importantly, too, Taylor’s writing doesn’t baffle you with technical jargon: it’s presented to us mere mortals in simple layman’s terms, making it a fascinating, eye-opening read on how time works and how it’s perceived. If your mind wasn’t particularly open before reading Time Expansion Experiences, it certainly will be afterwards.
