    You cant stop it but you can slow it down.

    Wut

    No


    Time passes at the same rate regardless


    Next you'll tell me that parrots don't taste like chicken

    But you can treat your body in a way that it ages slower or faster. There is a reason why drug addicts look older faster and why some people who take care of themselves look younger than their age.

    No, no you can’t. Sure you can slowdown how your skin ages, but you can’t slow down time.

    Aging is different than time. Of course we cant control time.

    If I had the answers I would bottle it up and sell it. After I use it on me first of course.

    I guess you could get a new identity and change your age? Maybe if you say your new age enough you will start to believe it? But what happens to the rest of you as you get older is a different story. :smile:

    I will say being active, as stress free as you can, eat well and just taking good care of your self will go along away. Take it from me at 50, I should have started a lot earlier.

    (><)...simple, stop breathing, encase yourself in a vacuum, & stop replicating new cells...
    Alternatively, travel to a 3D or fewer dimension...

    I just travel into space at near light speed every few years...surprised no one else is doing it. It's "relatively" easy...lol

    So, time is relative.

    So depending on our position and speed, time can appear to move faster or slower to us relative to others in a different part of space-time. And for astronauts on the International Space Station, that means they get to age just a tiny bit slower than people on Earth.

    The phenomenon is called "gravitational time dilation." In a nutshell it just means time moves slower as gravity increases.
    That's why time passes slower for objects closer to the center of the Earth where the gravity is stronger.

    There is also something called "relative velocity time dilation" where time moves slower as you move faster.

    Time gets even more complicated because gravitational time dilation and relative velocity time dilation can happen at the same time. A good way to think about it is to consider the astronauts living on the International Space Station.

    They're floating about 260 miles above, where Earth's gravitational pull is weaker than it is at the surface. That means time should speed up for them relative to people on the ground. But the space station is also whizzing around Earth at about nearly five miles per second.

    That means time should also slow down for the astronauts relative to people on the surface.

    You'd think that might even out, but actually their velocity time dilation has a bigger effect than their gravitational time dilation, so astronauts end up aging slower than people on Earth.

    So the next time you find yourself wishing the weekend would last longer, stay low to the ground and move really fast. It won't feel like your weekend got any longer, but technically you may gain a teeny, tiny fraction of a fraction of a second.

    Make sure you are born to parents that have good genetics so at least you won't look older as you age.

    Or if no fountain of youth, drink booze until you think you look younger 😏
