      I have a question :S

      I have tried to lucid dream but i wake up in the morning and i don't even think i dreamed at all, does everyone dream every night?
      If so, how can i help make sure my mind knows to do a RC inside the dream because as soon as a wake up i don't even feel i had any dream.

      Well, it is a diese that makes you not dream (Unconfirmed fact) wich is very rare. But I think that it is your recall who are bad. When I started to practise lucid dreams, I had no recall at all the first few nights. After a while, I found on a forum that you can use mantras to improve your recall. I said the first few nights that I will remember my dreams. The result: I started to remember my dreams. After a few nights with mantras, I started to not use them( just to try.) The result: I could remember my dreams without mantras.( It was only fragments though.) After 2 weeks, I got my first dream that I rememberd almost all details.

      It is a few things though that makes you have a bad recall: Gone to bed deadtired, taking drugs, being drunk when you gone to bed, and stress.

      I hope this tip helps you

      Dream Journal.
      Reality Check.
      WBTB.

      A dream journal will actually help your dream recall. I don't really know why it works, but it DOES.
      Getting into the habit of doing reality checks will cause that habit to carry over into your dreams. All you need is one reality check while you happen to be dreaming for it to work. Then you're suddenly lucid.
      Try the WBTB method of lucid dreaming. You are trying to induce lucid dreams at night, which even I have almost no success in doing.
      ---o--- my DCs say I'm dreamy.

      Your ability to recall dreams is not the best. Try lying completely still when you wake up and wait for the dreams to come to you. Don't think about anything and try not to fall asleep, but relax enough for your brain to think you are going to. You can try the mantras aswell. Good luck!

      I used to always have really good dream recall and as of late, since I've started my new job, this is how I've been waking up. Except, every night, before I go to sleep, I write in my agenda under daily goals to remember my dreams. Then I lay still when I wake up, as mentioned above, and let it come to me. I haven't been getting much but I have been remembering at least something most nights. I write it down in the agenda and then when I get home from work, write it in my DJ. Just a suggestion. Just tell yourself before you go to sleep that you will remember your dreams. Really focus on that thought as you drift off. I just have to write it down to really get it into my subconscious. Hope this helps with your recall, that's the first step into the world of lucid dreaming, after all.

      I forgot to mention it.

      From my knowlegde, it is because your brain is build like that you should not remember dreams. It is also because you haven't cared about dreams before. Why the dream journal works is because you are training your brain to remember dreams when you are writing in it.

      @BradonMac Another tip to remember that I forgot to mention is: Lay STILL in the posistion that you woke up in. Your brain will think that you wants to get back to sleep, so it continoues the same process that it was about to do when you woke up. This will probably give you a fragment of your dream/dreams. After you got this fragment you will start to remember more fragments and then you remember your dream.

      I know some of the extremists set alarm clocks to wake them while they sleeping so they can write down their dreams and therefore it builds recall, but I don't think this is a good idea because it makes you really tired, it can wake you during a lucid and it's hard to do (because of noise or sleeping partners whatever)
