Thread: Improving Dream Recall

The following is something I started doing a few months ago which has more than doubled my dream recall.

Although just about anything you would do that would improve your memory will help your dream recall, this one seems to work particularly well. The biggest problem with this method is the amount of time it consumes, but it does work remarkably well if you can find time to do it.

Here's the method:

Before going to bed, go back over the dreams you had the previous night, writing out a summary of their main points.
Do this from memory as much as possible by briefly looking at the dream you have already recorded and then writing it out again summarizing the main points of it.

To help with future lucidity, highlight any key points in your dreams where you feel you should have realized you were dreaming, and vow to realize you are dreaming the next time one of these things happens in your dream.

Let me know if this helps you or if you have any other ideas on how to improve on this.
