Is Quantum Mechanics Controlling Your Thoughts?

The rules of quantum mechanics are turning up everywhere these days, and may be behind the efficiency of photosynthesis, the accuracy of our sense of smell, and even the source of our conscious mind.

I read Mark Anderson's article "Is Quantum Mechanics Controlling Your Thoughts" back in 2009. I have also read a number of articles related to this. After reading the article, I decided to do a little experiment.

I thought that maybe there is something going on at a quantum level in antioxidant rich foods, and maybe the brain really does rely on such quantum level behaviors.

I started splitting blueberries with my daughter.

A strange and unexpected result happened. I think that it took 9 days of this, and I started having highly vivid dreams that could be easily remembered. I think that this is related to quantum entanglement, and as Einstein described it, I think it is spooky.

After I stopped the experiment, the affect faded within a few days, and I was once again barely or almost never able to remember my dreams.

I've done this experiment off and on about half a dozen times since 2009, and each time I get the same result.

I posted a blog to see if anybody else might try this and corroborate what I have found, but so far, nobody has seen it. http://blueberrysplit.blogspot.com

I think that there are a lot of fascinating implications to this.
