His work has been described by Eckhart Tolle as “an important contribution to the shift in consciousness that is happening on our planet.” His website is https://www.stevenmtaylor.com/

Here he examines time from the perspective of altered states of consciousness that result in a sense of time expansion, time contraction, or even time cessation. While such states can be triggered by emergencies, they are also relatively common among athletes. He also looks at the radical implications of near-death experiences and research on precognition.
