Have you ever experienced time moving at a faster pace than you expected ? Maybe you were in a mood swing and looked at the clock and realized that 2 or 3 hours of your day just flew by. Or maybe you’ve experienced the opposite ? Like working at a boring job and time seemed to go by at a snails pace. Understanding time and becoming conscious of our relation to it psychologically can be very helpful in allowing us to slow down. And by slowing down we can get behind the movement of time and experience more joy, and more peace as we access the present moment.
The present moment to some people is in constant motion. For them it is moving into the future and leaving the past behind. They may be playing constant catchup with their day, schedule and routine. This psychological map does not allow one the context to access the present. But there is another model that we can reference to gain better insight into the present moment. And this reference is that the present moment is eternal, and still. That it contains everything we need to be happy if we stay present in the moment. And to access this present moment requires only that we stay aware.
This awareness may take some training, because we are not taught how to remain attentive at all times. We are taught to remain present for a few hours of school work, or a job shift, but after that we go from one distraction to the next. With the current mass media, TV time, computer and cell phone addiction and the fast pace of life in the modern day we live in, learning to remain attentive to the present moment will take a new conditioning. But when we increase our attention span our ability to remain present will increase and allow us to experience time in a clear, calm and peaceful way.
One of the techniques that we can use to train ourselves to remain present and increase our attention span is to shift our focus from head thinking to heart feeling. It is interesting that the heart has the capacity to feel in a much greater way than the head has the ability to think. In a sense the heart is its own feeling brain center. Once the connection to the heart is made and recognized enough times a new neural network will establish itself and make it easier to remain centered. And this centering will be pleasurable and peaceful. Your attention to the heart will over time and practice develop an energetic feeling and help to stay in the present moment.
This practice will slow time down as we recognize how we feel and as stay connected to our feelings. In addition to this practice there is a tool that can aid energetically to center. It uses scalar technology to ground the body and nervous system with the electromagnetic resonance of the earth. This tool is a Scalar Home System by EarthCalm.com. I find that this energy tool helps to slow time down and creates a vibrational resonance within the heart and spinal column, which helps to remain present and centered. It also helps detox the body and can be helpful in reducing some of the side effects of medication. I find that while using this tool my mood is more level and consistent. Check it out if you are able to. The investment in this tool is well worth its price.
In Conclusion, psychological time can be experienced in a number of ways. It can move fast, slow or remain still to the degree that we can remain still and stay present to the moment. Our context for how time moves can help us stay present and increase our attention span. By increasing our attention span and applying it to the practice of slowing down we can stay present and access greater peace, gaining greater clarity in our lives. This can help consciously outgrow the limitations of our moods. While we may always have mood swings or mood shifts if we can stay present and connected to our heart these changes in perception can be more manageable and less of a burden. The heart in this sense is our roadmap that can constantly orient us towards mental mastery.
