I have, on a few occasions, managed to briefly slow down my perception of time... but only for a few seconds. I think it involves, more or less, "overclocking" one's mind. Faster mental processing == slower experience of time passing. A big rush of blood to the brain may have contributed. But I've got no idea if such a state is sustainable for long or something I could manage to refine/control. I suspect it would be extremely stressful to try to maintain, possibly even damaging. So it's not a skill I've tried too hard to cultivate.
(If you're curious how I know it was happening, one time it occurred I was actually playing a Rock Band game. So I had a very objective outside measurement of time to compare with. The interesting thing is that my perception was of the musical notes themselves slowing down and lowering in pitch, like a vinyl being undercranked, but they remained in-tune. Just lower pitched.)
