Time Paths

We will use the term "Time Path" to denote the Client's understanding or Metaphor for time. 

In NLP a Client's Time Path typically runs left to right and or front to back. Of course, based upon the individual Client this may be reversed or may be some other path or arrangement entirely.

Time Based Techniques (TM John Overdurf) are used to "move" a Client's experience forward or backward through time in order to experience or re-experience the past or future.

This movement through time may be accomplished consciously by instructing the Client to imagine moving along, above or beside their Time Path, or unconsciously by using appropriate language, verb tenses and prepositions.
