THIS IS WHY IT FEELS LIKE TIME SPEEDS UP AS WE GET OLDER

✍️ Scientists have found that time doesn't actually speed up, but it feels faster because of how our brains process experiences as we get older.
👉 The study found that older participants' brains switched between different neural states less often 👉 This results in a blurring of experiences and a feeling of time passing more quickly 👉 Neural dedifferentiation is the process where the brain's activity patterns become less distinct with age 👉 Our perception of time also changes mathematically as each year becomes a smaller proportion of our total life as we get older 👉 New experiences, travel, and meaningful connections can make time feel richer and more expansive
