Deep dives

Slowing Down Time

As we grow older, time seems to pass by faster due to the increased capacity for experiencing happiness. To restore the sense of time going more slowly, one can practice being a simple witness of the passage of events and focus on the present moment through the five senses. By immersing oneself in the sensations of touch, smell, taste, sound, and sight for a few minutes each, time can be perceived to slow down, resulting in a greater sense of mastery over the flow of time.
