Will listening to music as I try to WILD negatively effect my chances of succeeding?
I dont like going to bed while not listening to music...
Is it possible that listening to music is effecting my dream recall? I only remember like parts of 2 dreams per week...
You're probably going to want to build up a decent recall first...I would recommend getting plenty of sleep and also using a mantra/auto suggestion to bolster recall (I like to use "I WILL remember my dreams.") Many people have reported great success with this method. Also, when you first wake up, hold perfectly still and try to remember as much of your dream as possible. Also keep a dream journal. Sounds silly, I know, but it is invaluable.Quote:

Good luck!
I suppose you won't really know until you experiment.Quote:

The scientific method should be applied. I agree with Higurashi--try both. Also, make sure you have success with at least one or the other before you judge. There's no reliable way to determine on which attempt you were "closer to a dream." You can only draw a valuable conclusion from dream-yeilding results.
