The title covers it. No matter how hard I try, I can't remember a single detail of my dream. |

This space is reserved for signature text. A signature goes here. A signature is static combination of words at the end of a post. This is not a signature. Its a signature placeholder. One day my signature will go here.

I hit a dry patch recently, and used a mantra to get my recall going back in the right direction. I also used a mantra when I first started my dream journal and it started out strongly. So I believe that it really does help. |

1. How long are you sleeping each night? If you are only getting say 6 hours, you will not get the longer REM periods needed for dreaming, which occur later in the night. Also being tired you will sleep deeper which makes it harder to remember dreams. You need to regularly get 8 hours to get better recall. |

Agreeing with joggerman, don't move when you wake up. If you have to turn an alarm off go ahead, but then just lay there and try to think of the last thing you can remember. Try to recall anything: a color, a character, an emotion, a landscape, an object, etc. Often I've found that if I can recall one detail, that usually unlocks more details and I try to work backwards to figure out just what happened. Then, when I feel I have a good grasp on my memory of the dream, I grab my DJ and write down a summary. I then go back later and fill in the details. |
