“Time is nature’s way of keeping everything from happening all at once.” Jeremy Rifkin, author of Time Wars, found this quote written on a café wall. Indeed, the way that we perceive time in this dimension as living beings causes us to witness events as happening sequentially. I believe that as we expand beyond these perceptions and yield to the true flow of the non-linear/non-local spirit we will experience the truth about our own existence; not only are we eternal, we are timeless.

This means that we will become less restricted by stereotypes and expectations that involve the chronological aging process. Such externalized perceptions limit our potential for greater vitality and wonderful adventures in our later years. In trusting a deeper place within ourselves—where the soul recognizes truth—we will have greater immunity to the persuasive influence of consensus reality. No longer will we feel the compulsion to acquire products that make us appear other than we truly are. Sooner than we can imagine, the physical body will have the ability to keep up with the spirit’s timeless progression.

Scientists now tell us that they are astonishingly close to discovering what triggers stem cell regeneration. Their research is taking them beyond age retarding hormones. They are discussing age reversal and estimate that people who are currently in their fifties will live to be one hundred and twenty or more. They predict that the younger generation will live as much as thirty years longer. Sociologists are already pondering the cultural ramifications of such breakthroughs.

We see more relationships that defy traditional chronological expectations with respect to choosing partners. Men and women are freeing themselves from imposed traditional expectations. I met a woman on the Isle of Wight in England who is currently in her eighties. She lives happily with her soul mate, a man who is forty years younger. She confided in a close friend, “A violin is never too old to play.”

A few years ago, I was sitting on a swing on the top of a mountain, overlooking a beautiful panorama of green rolling hills. I thought, “How would I see this through the eyes of a child?” I tried to shift my focus and do so.

A few moments later, I heard a rustle in the leaves behind me. I turned around and saw a young woman approaching. I invited her to come join me on the swing.

“It’s really weird,” she said, as she sat down beside me, “When I first saw you from the back, I didn’t know if you were a young girl, or a older woman.” I laughed, thinking how her remark confirmed the effect of my intention. By experiencing my surroundings through my timeless consciousness, I shifted my energy field and influenced the way she perceived me on an energetic level.

I vividly remember, as a child staring so long into a mirror that I no longer recognized to whom the face looking back at me. It was as if my soul was looking out from my body, pondering, “So this is who I am…this time...”

I personally think that we gawk when we drive by devastating car crashes because our personality-selves cannot comprehend what the Higher Self knows: Death is an illusion. Our essential self is eternal but our body dies. The Higher Self is in harmony with this contradiction, but the little self—the self of the rational mind—cannot grasp this paradox.

I cringe whenever I hear some people my age or older, say, “Wups, there goes another brain cell,” when they are unable to remember something. “Stop that!” I tell them. “The cells are listening!” Then I share a report I once heard from a neurologist, who said that it’s not that we lose brain cells. It’s more that in these days of “information overload” it simply takes a little longer to pull up the right file!

To this end, I have programmed myself to retrieve information that I am unable to consciously remember in a given moment. After trying as hard as I can to remember something with my brain, I then release all thoughts completely, concerning what I have forgotten. Then tidbits of information float back into my consciousness—like a boomerang.

I have perfected this ability to retrieve delivery of the unremembered information within five minutes. The only problem is that when I apply this technique in a social setting, by the time I get the information, the conversation has usually moved on to other topics.

At a New Year’s Eve party in London, I was trying to remember the name of the actress, Lily Tomlin, while the guests were chatting about American comediennes. I thought and thought, then suddenly released my efforts and silently commanded that information to float back to me, ASAP!

“It’s Lily Tomblin!” I exclaimed to the group. Unfortunately, it was after my famous five-minute delay. “Oh? Uh…um…so…?” Their looks conveyed a hint of annoyance for my interrupting the current topic.

My little trick involves more than mind over matter. It is an attitude that I practice. It helps me reject learned perceptions about aging. Your body is extremely responsive to your thoughts, beliefs, and perceptions about chronological aging. It will be happy to age you accordingly and mirror your limiting beliefs with diminished vitality and greater forgetfulness.

Emphasize your “aging” self and your body will most certainly give you cause to yearn for the younger years. The irony is that even during those younger years, you were most likely lamenting emerging wrinkles, excess weight and whatever seemed unattainable. With every encroaching year that you live with an ongoing identification to your physical self, your body will feel older.

It does not have to be this way. You can learn to live in sync with your timeless spirit. You will gain important insights from your observation of old habits and nonproductive patterns. You will learn more about yourself from those who trigger certain emotional responses in you. Transformation of old perceptions will increase your capacity to forgive old grievances. Then you are released.

Profound realizations will lead you to greater self-actualization and self-acceptance. Greater self-acceptance will make you glow and feel less need to judge others. Living in greater harmony with your self and your world will make you younger, no matter how many years you are wearing.

You will find yourself awake and attentive to gifts and discoveries that arrive in each new present moment. You will feel free to receive the wisdom gained from making more life-enhancing, life-expanding conscious choices. The Universe will commune with you and present all the more wondrous adventures, as long as you inhabit your physical body. You will never feel alone, for your spirit will serve as a vital conduit of your connection to the Source.
