I had a dream where a bearded man was describing ways to increase your dream recall. He was doing an interactive presentation with a group. His first question was if you flick a light switch what happens? The answer is that the light turns on.

I was thinking back to my previous dream segment in this current dream thinking ot my self. If I was in my room, where was I before? My answer was my living room. I started to think and got an image of the living room and a feeling that I was actually there in my previous dream. It was a little hard to remember more beyond the feeling.

So my tip is that when you remember yourself doing an action in a dream, ask you self, what would be the next logical or semi logical step where your prevous actions would have produced your current action. If you are loooking to remember stuff in the future just like the light example ask your self if I put on my glasses in my dream, what happened. If I opened the door what happened. If I walked in to my room what was I doing before that.

This goes backwards and forwards.

Good Luck

But what if the place you were last wasn't the logical place to be? the dreamworld is instable and illogical so, technically you could have been anywhere!

It sounds like a good idea, and i'm gonna give it a shot, but i just thought i'd say that.

Im going to have to agree with aphius on this a little. I just had a lucid dream last night and the locations do not connect at all. I was in my school walking around and then the next thing that happened was that I was swimming at a beach. I still don't know how I got there. Maybe I was teleported....

maybe instead of asking yourself what logical thing happened just ask your self what happened. I think that the main idea is to try to make an association with one action to a past or future action. Forget the logical part.

also you can ask your self what you felt what you saw. Any type of observation that you made when you did the particular action. Any sensory physical emotional info.

This will work up to a certain point...because in a regular dream most people accept all inconsistancies...but maybe in a low level lucid dream, someone would ask these questions...and i have obtained lucidity through this method before, in a way!, so it has worked for me!

The odd thing for me is in most of my dreams everything seems to run logically. Except for the floor plans of buildings.
