Time is the linear storage mechanism the brain uses to track observations of changes between the "frames" of reality which self erase and rewrite per planck second, the perception speed of these "frames" is directly proportional to the maximum potential of your brainwaves to process in any one time-less moment of "frame" reality experiences.
The ability to perceive more and even the ability to control and manipulate "time" requires a simultaneous expansion of the chakra system into your complete awareness, both upper and lower must be fully integrated.
In dreams you are existing in a dimensional space or density of space without the bodily attachment and limitations of a brainwashed set of belief systems, this is where you learn to manipulate time, you need to be able to bridge this consciousness gap whilst staying in the body but being rooted to the earth itself.
