Thread: Recalling 3-4 Dreams per Night?

I believe it essentially boils down to how consistent you are and how much practice you put in. If you have great dream recall and know your own dreams very well, this is the first important element. The second element is how often you think about your dreams during the day. If you can categorize one scenario as dream and the other reality, and consistently remember this throughout the day, you will find lucidity to become easier and easier.

Needless to say the results are in direct proportion to the importance you place on being lucid. A simple example: If every single one of your dreams took place on Mars, lucidity would be a simple matter of thinking about this as much as possible while awake. Of course, dreams are not so similar, therefore the more you can simplify your dreams into categories and contemplate these categories, the more consistent lucidity becomes.
