Hey guys, I'm pretty much a noob as far as dreaming is concerned. I never believed that I could remember my dreams until a friend introduced me to this site, but since then I've been trying to build up dream recall and work towards lucid dreaming. I've only ever had one lucid dream in my entire life. I dreamed that I was flying above that world at an incredible speed, so fast that all I could see of my surroundings were blurs. It felt incredible, and then suddenly, I realized that I was dreaming, and with that realization came the primal understanding that I could literally go anywhere. I woke up at that moment, probably because I got excited. I've been trying to recapture that feeling ever since; it ranks among the most amazing in my life.

I usually don't post on forums, but I decided it might help me dream if I browsed the Dreamviews forums each night right before I go to sleep.

Anyways, lately I've been having troubles remembering dreams. I've never been good at it, but right after I started trying to I had a run of 5 really vivid, detailed, lengthy dreams that I recalled right in a row. Lately, however, it seems I've hit a slump, and I was wondering if you guys had any advice for building up dream recall, especially for someone who's really bad at it. Thanks!
