Atoms are made of quantum particles, and quantum particles are just excitations in the quantum field. The quantum field is all around us, even in empty space. When you move, the excitations are traveling along the quantum field. You are now made up of a different part of the quantum field. Same excitations, but a different part of the quantum field. Just by existing, matter travels at the speed of light at all times. There are two directions for it to travel, through space, or through time. Light travels through space very fast but almost not at all through time, so it almost appears to be existing in more than one place at the same time. We, as matter, travel through time instead of space, so we can appear to be still. The closer to light speed our matter travels, the slower through time we will be traveling relative to those who are still.
