Old age has many valuable and positive qualities, but negative features are also observed. Experience and maturity of thought remain a privilege of the elderly. Old age has its attractions. We must remember that personal development never stops. The aging process does not mean the degradation of the individual, it is the process of transforming it in the better way. To the aging process proceeded successfully, it is necessary to control the subjective feeling of the passage of time. Two factors determine the course of psychological time — information and our inner «I». To slow down the time we need to get as much new information as possibly, and also block or weaken the structure of our inner «I» through meditation. Prospects for further research in this area is the development on the basis of the data obtained guidelines and intervention programs, that allow older people to improve the physical and psychological condition, quality of life and be more productive spending the last years. One of the negative factors is the acceleration of the flow of time perception in the elderly. As part of the preparation and adaptation of older people to the final period of the life cycle, and also to improve the conditions and quality of life of older people, providing them with psychological problems help, we investigated the factors affecting the perception of time in older age, with a view to learn how to manage their own time in life and to expand it, to practically live longer.
