What The Bleep Do We Know!?

Three key ideas from the movie:

            One key idea from this movie is that we our controlled by chemical addiction in our bodies. When we get an emotion our brain releases specific proteins that go to every cell in your body. After your cells get exposed to this protein many times they become accustomed to it and want it and you become addicted to the emotion associated with the protein.

            Another key idea was that your mind can affect reality. This means that if we think something it can change the outcome of something. The water experiment where writing words on water containers changed the shape of the water molecules shows that this theory may be correct.

            A third key idea was that what we see and what we remember use the same part of our brains. This brings up the question, how we can tell the difference from what we remember from what we really see. Amanda had this happen to her at the wedding multiple times. One time was when the groomsman and bridesmaid were in the bathroom together. Because of the memories of her cheating husband she saw the groomsman as the groom and thought he was cheating on his newly married wife.
