Thread: There is a name for it!

IR145, welcome to Dream Views!

It's wonderful that you spend so much of your dreams lucid and kinda sad that you don't recall them.

Below is a tutorial on dream recall: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ead.php?t=6207

For me, what really messes up my recall is being jarred awake by an alarm or some other sound and/or if I immediately change position or start thinking about my day once I wake up.

Try telling your subconscioius to wake you up after each dream or to wake you up about 15 minutes before your alarm goes off (I know it sounds stupid but you'd be surprised how accomodating your subconscious can be).

Once you wake up.. do not move! Think about the dream that you just had.. If nothing comes to mind.. try to remember if there was a specific person, place, thing, food or emotion in the dream. Once you come up with even a tidbit of the dream.. try to work your way backward.. how did you get there.. who was with you, etc.

welcome and good luck increasing your recall. And it is an absolute neccessity to write down your dreams every day to increase your dream recall.

Yes, even though can be a pain, write out your dreams when you wake up.
