Hi all

I'm starting a new dream journal so thought I'd start thinking about how I want to journal this time. Last journal got a bit un-energized. Thought I'd see how others journal and see if I can start this next one in a more useful way. Any tips on how to make journaling effective, nourishing and time efficient?

Habits that have been good in the past include

writting titles on dreams (makes it so much more accessible to flick back through and the effort of titling forces one to think of the dream)
Writting dreams on right hand page and keeping left hand page for reflections on the night and non dream content related , tracking time's of sleep, and writting intentions.
writting brief pieces during many micro awakenings in night
underlining dream signs as they occur (when more giving energy to this, writting them on left as well as a category for these)
when creative -doing some drawings


bad habits have been
just writting content on both pages with no titles, so its an impenetrable mess of dream content that is off putting to look at later
only writting on final wake and so losing much connection that was there on micro awakenings..
not writting dreams
