Thread: Recalling Tricks please?

I started the Journal process two days ago, and I only got fragments. Even then, I'm not sure if it was what I dreamt about, as it's almost as if I never dreamt during the sleep.

Could you guys give me some tips to get better at recalling? I try the message method, it's not quite working...

EDIT: Nevermind! I'm not doing that bad, as I remembered a dream I did last night. However, a few ways to get multiple dreams at once could be a nice idea, though.

Stay perfectly still in bed with your eyes closed a few minutes after you wake up and all of your dreams should come back because your body and mind is preparing to go back into a dream.

Thanks! I'll give it a try tonight.

Bump...

It doesn't seem to help much, because my body knows it's a school day, and as such, tries to get me up... ><

Also, I tried telling myself to wake up after each cycle, but doesn't get much success, because at times, I forget to tell myself to wake up to remember my dreams...

Should I attempt it only on non-school days? Or is there a trick to get the feeling off?

I really can't say if that works for everyone and I wouldn't say that this substance is something for everyone, but after intense self-experiments with S. divinorum I was able to recall dreams perfectly every night for about two months after stopping the intake. At that time I also learned that I dream the whole night, because I could follow dreams seamlessly for hours. I wouldn't say I had much recreative sleep during that two months though. At some points it seemed too much to bear and I'm glad it was a temporary effect. There wasn't a night that I didn't wake up soaked with sweat and a rapidly beating heart.

If you think you must try that too, inform yourself amply and handle that substance with the utmost respect. If you have any doubt, don't do it. If you suffer or suffered from any mental problems, don't do it. That plant has a lot more facets than most would think.

Psy, I will add my voice to your disclaimer. Salvia is a powerful drug and can seriously screw up your brain chemistry. Don't F* with it unless you know what you are doing.

My preachy advice is to steer clear of it no matter how much you think you know. I used to be involved with the Shulgin/ Erowid crowd. I have friends that ended up in mental institutions, jail, and dead from this stuff. Personally, I don't know why its not a scheduled drug.
