Accelerate to speed close to c moving with comfortable acceleration 9.8 m/s2 - it only takes a year or two to approach c. After that move over circular trajectory (with the same 9.8 m/s2 till your velocity vector aligns with the direction back to Earth. Start decelerating with the same 9.8 m/s2 acceleration - and you'll arrive on Earth with zero velocity and a few years yonger than your friends without need of yet-to-be built warp drive (which require such exotic thing as negative energy to work). But you are NOT moving into YOUR future any faster than non-moving observers: you still age with the SAME rate as you did before travel.
