      Dream journal(s)

      When I started keeping a dream journal, I bought a notebook and have been writing them down in it. But since joining Dream Views and seeing the Dream Journal tab, it's suddenly dawned on me that I could keep my dream journal on my laptop, making my entries easier to share via copy & paste. So now I'm curious as to how everyone else keeps their dream journal. Should I keep writing them down? Type them into a dream journal on my laptop? Maybe both?

      Also, is the Dream Journal section on this website just for lucid dreams? Or is it for all dreams?

      I tend to keep a sheet of looseleaf and a pen at my bedside, and whenever I wake up in the middle of the night, I write down notes about the dream I had. I do this in the dark without turning any lights on, and sometimes not even sitting up in bed. Usually if I write enough scribbly notes about a dream, I'll remember the full thing in the morning. It's in the morning when I go over my dream and type the full entry up here.

      The Dreamviews DJ system is like your own personal blog; each post gives you the opportunity to categorize it, be it a lucid, non-lucid, nightmare, etcetera. In other words, you can use it for any kind of dreams; some people also use it for sleep paralysis, OBE and astral projection experiences.

      We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
      some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

      Puffin do you still write down when you are wanting to DEILD chain?

      Nope, I write down after I finish however many DEILDs I want to do. The more you chain, the less vivid the previous dreams can become, though.

      Thanks, Puffin. That's a good idea, just jotting down notes or maybe even a few key words. And I see the reasoning....it makes going back to dreaming easier and quicker. I'll give it a try!
