      Practicing dream recall while still in the dream

      A few nights ago I had a long lucid and I remember running through everything that had happened and making sure I remembered it all before I woke up. Then when I woke up I already had it all there ready to write down and didn't have to take any time to try to remember it all, because I had already done that work while still dreaming. Does anyone else practice their recall throughout their lucid dreams? It's what I'm focusing most on now. Especially at the moment I become lucid, I try to really embed that moment in my memory so I can be sure I will remember it later on.

      That's great, if you can remember to remind yourself to remember your dreams when you awake! hehe.

      One thing that has helped me, is an in-dream DJ.

      ^^Yes! I really want to do this. ~Dreamer~ does what she calls "in-dream narration." Sort of a running DJ entry of the dream while experiencing it. I remembered to try this just the other night in an LD and it raised my awareness and vividness to super-sharp high levels, creating an incredibly grounded, stable moment. But I almost immediately forgot about it and continued on with the plot. In that moment when I was doing it, everything was bright and clear and the experience was basically indistinguishable from being in a waking location, at least that was how it felt.

      I'm going to try that next time. Did you actually narrate out loud in the dream? It would be funny if a dream character walked up and I said "...and then my friend Jerry walked up to me!" and he would look at me strangely. If Jerry then continued to narrate along with me, that would be amazing.

      It was more "mental" notes: "there is a tree blowing in the wind, I can see the individual leaves; I'm on a long wide street with old-European looking 4-story buildings, there's a cross street and some cars are moving along it; there are 2 mimes leaning against the building across the street. One's a girl, I should get back to her later..."
