Thread: Gotta keep tryn

Yes, moving around alot right after waking up can cause you to forget some details from your dream. So can being startled awake, performing a task right after waking (talking on the phone, etc.), and many other things. I would suggest recapping your dreams as soon as you wake up and try not to move around to much. I wake up, think about and recall my dream in my mind, and then immediately write it down in a notebook. If you want a more effective way, you can set alarms throughout the night for every few hours. This will allow to write down your dreams right after you have had them. This way they will still be fresh in your memory. If you wait until the morning to recall all your dreams, you will most likely only remember the most recent one in detail.

Thanks a lot, I managed to have 2 lucid dreams in the past 2 days !!! sooo excited to be back

Congrats on your success. Just keep at it and I'm sure there will be many more lucids to come !
