I chose this DVD at random from the college library. Its cover made me think that in some way its content would be "mystical" or "spiritual." I was very surprised when I began to watch it, finding that it was in fact about Quantum Physics. I'm not sure whether to describe it as a film or a documentary; I will settle on describing it as a mixture of both genres.
I was fascinated by its content and could even go as far as to say that it has changed the way I think about the human mind and body. I have always believed that our minds are the power behind our well being, our intellect and our emotions, but until I watched this DVD, I had not really considered how powerful the mind is.
I know that I should not believe every word said by the philosophers and scientists interviewed, but their beliefs made me think a lot about my beliefs and the way I think.
One thing that really stood out for me was that whatever I am addicted too will continue to create in me a negative thought process. I am now beginning to notice exactly what I am addicted too on a mental and emotional level. The discussion centered on being additcted to certain ways of thinking, and that if we are unable to stop ourselves from thinking in those certain ways, then we are addicted to our habitual thought processes.
For instance I am constantly in need of reassurance because of the lack of faith I have in my own abilities. This has become a part of myself that I find very annoying and frustrating. Before watching the DVD, I hd wondered what it was about my past experiences that made me this way. But now, instead of trying to delve into my subconscious, thinking and trying to analyse this need in myself, I am simply changing these thoughts into a more positive mind set. I am allowing myself to believe in myself and my abilities. I no longer have the tolerance with myself to dwell on any weaknesses that I have. Instead I want to embrace the fact that if I look at problems and challenges in a different way, then I can find solutions to overcome those problems. Of course this is wonderful in theory, but the doing will take some time to establish a change in those habitual thoughts that plague me.
In this film the theory was explained in very simple terms. It was demonstrated through animation showing what happens when our thoughts manifest themselves in peptides which in turn cling to the cells in our bodies causing distress, mistrust in ourselves and a lack of confidence in certain situations. There are many other fears, worries, thought processes experienced by humans but it seems that we all have the ability to change the way we think and how our bodies react. If we learn to accept that anything is possible and think about what we really want in life then thouse thoughts will manifest and slowly what we want is what we will get!
It may all seem very obvious but sometimes an epiphany occurs because of some small change in the way a philosophy is heard, read or seen. This is what happened to me when I watched this documentary film. I knew already what I had to do to change my thought processes, but this film almost screamed it out at me and at last I truly understood.
