IT CAME BACK!!

some of you may remember, after talking with me in chat, that i was having real problems with recall. okay, two nights ago i had a very 'fuzzy' dream, in that the details weren't really clear. I wrote down what i could remember. the same thing happened night before last, and i did the same thing again yesterday morning, still worrying about my lack of recall, and the vagueness of my dreams. Well, last night, before i went to bed, i simply told myself quite sternly that i would remember my dreams in full, and i also told myself that i wanted to dream about a particular person. I did this when i realised i was dropping off into sleep, just before i lost conciousness, and i said it out loud, i nearly woke up, but managed not to. Both of which, i did. I had not one dream, but three!! talk about going from the sublime to the ridiculous. Also last night i was hungry, and had a bowl of cereal before bed, i don't know if that made any difference... Just thought i'd let you all know, that my period of non recall is over!

Last night, I also had a bowl of cereal not long before bed (Frosted Mini-Wheats -- Vanilla Cream flavor), and I absolutely shattered my more-than-month-long dry spell for both recall and LDs. Of course, I was also trying elements of Gothlark's Confidence and Dream Feeling Induced Lucid Dream method -- I think that helped greatly.

ah, mine was weetabix, and the telling myself that i would remember my dreams seemed to work... will definitely be trying that in future. i think i got to the point where i just thought, 'don't be silly, of course you can remember your dreams!'
