Hey forum,

Right now I am working on my Dream Recall and my ability to both identify and recognize dream signs.

I have noticed this pattern in my sleep where I will wake up naturally after my first or second REM period to pee. I also have shallow awakenings throughout the night that I am conscious of.

Here is the question I want to throw out to you men and women:

What techniques/affirmations/etc. can I use during those awakenings (especially the one where I go to the bathroom) in order to enhance my chances of remembering my dreams and possibly becoming lucid in them? I would also be interested if there are micro Reality Checks that people do during those spontaneous awakenings throughout the night.

Please leave your responses, I'd love any feedback.
