I had a pretty freaky experience with time while fire dancing about a year ago... |

Fight or Flight is completely true but there is a science to it. Its all the adrenaline thats pumping through your body and speeds up your reaction time and reflexes. |

Seize the Day, for it could be your last
haven't tried them yet, as I just got to this topic (It has the same topic number as a topic I made which got deleted in the forum crash, so I got a "topic reply notification" with that topic name, and I haven't checked my email in a while.) It sounds really interesting though, and definitely worth trying. Anyways, did I understand correctly as you meditating every day for the last 2 years? How do you meditate, I can never figure out what to do as there is too much crap on the web, and half the stuff is a cheap sales pitch. |

Time distortion with regards to slowing down perception of time is a skill I've often considered trying to learn. Too much I have the feeling that everything seems to be going by too fast. Having more time (perceived time) to simply think would be invaluable to me. |

Thinking of a dream

The idea that there are limitations creates limitations. Your reality is a idea based on what your brain gets from outside input. Some of your own posts about dreaming made me see that more clearly |

No no, Im saying your right it 'slows' time. When your in a fight or doing something that gets your adrenaline going, it'll feel like much more time has past than what really has. Most street fights last around 15-30 seconds at most. In those type of fights or in other extreme activities youll get a big dose of adrenaline and your reflexes and reaction time enhance, and everything seems to move slower around you including time. So what may seem like a long fight or activity is likely a lot shorter. |

That looks pretty interesting Penter. I don't know how possible this really is unless administered by an experienced hypnotist, buy it's true that limits are mostly set by our minds. Take the first guy who ran a 4 minute mile. Everyone thought it was impossible, but he pushed himself until he succeeded. After he succeeded, many others have run the 4 minute mile (I am not one of them though). It just goes to show. Also, thanks for the meditation links. I'll check them out. |

you so got that from Dune! |

I have done some experimentation with perceptual time dilation using the method of carefullly concentrating on everything, trying to predict what will happen, etc. on things like ping pong, or for floor hockey in gym...that kind of stuff, and it seems to have worked quite well, especially for ping pong |

I actually do this some times when i present a project in school |

Holy old thread batman! |

I do this in school all the time. I find that the fewer amount of times I look at the clock, the faster the class goes by. |
