Memory Palaces- Better than voice recorders.

[kidjordan]

What's the best way to jot down your ideas quickly so that you can go back to sleep quickly? A notebook? Too slow. A voice recorder? Getting closer, but you still have to actually move and thus break sleep paralysis. I recently had the brilliant idea of using memory palaces to do dream recall. Pros: You don't have to move. It's highly reliable. You can impress people by memorizing arbitrary information. Cons: You have to spend 15-45 minutes learning how to do memory palaces. If you don't know what memory palaces are, google is your friend.

Well I mean unless people are looking to MEMORIZE their dreams this is useful but this seems way over the top. Most advanced LDers dont even need a DJ. It's usually just for those who are trying to recall dreams consistently. I do agree that a DJ/ voice recorder is a flawed way to recall dreams as it DOES disturb things like WBTB. But there isn't much of another way. Memory palaces are more for trying to memorize things like a series of numbers or something like that.
