Since waking reality profoundly impacts dreams, could dreams profoundly impact waking reality?
If you don't like that one.. then how about this,
From the documentary the Secret, an experiment showed that while an athlete was hooked up to machines monitoring her muscles was told to visual running a race, it turned out the same muscles fired in order as when actually doing it in reality. Thus no difference between experiencing it in the mind or reality.
SO... why not hook up this machine to a person while dreaming? It could map out the movements of the dream!
One more idea and then I am done...
Ever notice you can't look at both eyes at once when talking to somebody? The eye that you focus on while the other person is talking could be the brain they are using more of while speaking. The left brain (right eye) being more analytical, and the right brain (left eye) being more creative.
(while watching a movie I came across a female desperately begging a male for forgiveness as I noticed her eyes flickering from eye to eye, almost in search to find any sympathy from either side of the brain)
I lied I forgot one more..
Taste buds serve a higher purpose than detecting the taste. Everybody has certain foods that they despise or crave all of the time. If you are off put by a certain food, it could be because you have a surplus of some ingredient within that food and vise versa.
(explanation for why pregnant women crave odd combinations and why everybody has different taste buds)
TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. go.
I think these are all worthy ideas for a research project.
Good luck. Go.
@PUNKEY,
Thank you! I would love to research them, I have no access to the equipment needed though. Hopefully in the future I will.
