      My Mantra Isn't Working Anymore!!!

      I've been using a mantra since I started here, but my Dream recall has slowly gotten worse... What should I do?
      Bollocks.

      A repeated phrase. "I will awake from my dreams, and remember them completely."

      Just curious...do you repeat these mantras just prior to falling asleep? And are they supposed to be spoken out loud?

      Mantras shouldn't work in general. They don't focus the mind; they numb it. Just try it: say any word or phrase you can think of, over and over in your head, and it will quickly lose all meaning. It will become a jumble of sounds. Try it.

      What you should be doing is subvocally 'understanding' that you want to do something. NOT a mantra.
