-
Keep paper and pen (or a tape recorder) within easy reach of your bed.
-
At night, think about your wish to remember more dreams. Imagine yourself waking up
and writing down your dreams.
-
Try to have calm, slow-paced mornings.
-
Lay in bed a while after you wake up. Keep your eyes closed.
-
Cast your mind back ("What was I just thinking about a minute ago...?")
rather than forward to the coming day’s events.
-
Write down every dream you can remember, even just a tiny piece of a dream when you
can’t remember the whole thing.
-
If you can’t seem to remember anything at first, try gently turning to one of your
favorite sleeping positions. Or try thinking about people you know, one by one, to
see if they trigger any dream memories.
-
Talk about dreams with your friends. Read about dreams. Think about them during the
day. People may recall more dreams when they pay a lot of attention to them.
