You should get up as many times throughout the night as you think you can with your schedule and still get enough sleep (although I wouldn't suggest more than three times per night). Getting up a couple of times throughout the night will allow you to remember dreams that you would have forgotten otherwise.Quote:

I like to set an alarm in 2 hour increments and write down my dreams as soon as I awake. If I haven't dreamed after the first 2 hours, I simply go back to sleep. What B6 does is make your dreams more vivid/clear/bright/colorful. It doesn't necessarily help you become lucid. An easy way to get B6 is drink apple juice before bed. Also peanut butter contains B6 and quite a few other foods. You can also buy B6 vitamin pills in stores. Good Luck to you!
You are keeping a dream journal, right? That's probably the most important thing for improving dream recall. Taking tons of B6 and waking up 20 times per night* will be useless if you don't write your dreams down.
*In no way am I recommending waking up 20 times a night. It will just make you tired in the morning.
I usually get up once and I had a lot of luck with that. As for the B6, right before you go to bed, it's absorbed slowly.
thanks for the tips
Well, I take B-6 in a vitamin. Vita-Vim to be exact. Since I started taking it, I could remember at least 2-5 dreams a night.
I can always remember a dream in full detail waking up once a night. Just make sure your room doesn't
have a ton of distractions. Like lights or a tv. Slow music is fine Right when you get up write the dream in a dream journal. You will form a habit
very fast.
