Hi. Before I saw this site, I was able recall my dreams about 4 times a month. This was without me attempting to use dream recall, it just... happened.
Anyway, I here I am a week after first seeing this site (and attempting dream recall). I just registered today.
I always wanted to learn how to control my dreams. In fact, I actually DO NOT want anything more (well...except maybe to have my dreams come true in real life ) However, I am currently stuck on step 1..... dream recall. I've tried it every night of this week. I have not remembered any dreams at all, or even came close. When I wake up in the morning, even if I lay still and try to remember my dreams, I can't.
Why?
Well, it's because I need to have my mind wander for me to be able to fall asleep. What I mean is, I think about one thing, then go offtopic and think about another thing, and it will continue until I fall asleep. I almost do it unconciously in a way. Lucky for me, when I'm tired, my mind almost always wanders. If I'm tired and I fight my mind, preventing it from wandering, I remain tired but can't fall asleep until I give in. THAT is where my problem lies. Since I need to say and focus my intent on recalling my dreams on the boderline of being asleep, I can't do it. By speaking out lines, I am focusing my mind, and not letting it wander. Becuase of this, I can't sleep until I give in.
Please, do you have any suggestions for this? Thank you.
