The way I've understood it is that everything which can 'move' in spacetime has to have a momentum vector with constant magnitude C (when expressed in the right units, C = 1)

The faster you 'move' through space, the more you have to 'borrow' from the time component of the vector to maintain a magnitude of C

That means your 'position in time' moves slower; and so for people who aren't moving as fast through space as you are, they appear to 'experience more time'
