Lucid Recall

[Razorback]

I have been having this weird experience recently with my dream recall especially for lucid dreams. When I wake up I know I was lucid the night before, but I can't remember anything about being lucid, also when I do slightly remember I only remember parts of when I was lucid I can't remember anything specifically. I was just wondering if anyone could help me out with techniques that would help me on my dream recall and maybe make them seem a lot more realistic. Sorry Could someone move this into Dream Signs and Recall forum.

Firstly, get into the habit of writing down your dreams when you first wake up.This will help your mind think that they are important, and you will remember your dreams alot more. Secondly, each night tell yourself aloud that your going to remember your dreams when you wake up.Say that about 10 times aloud to yourself before you fall asleep.This will get it set in your mind that you want to remember them, so it will increase your chances. Try those and see how much that helps (it should help quite a bit actually).

I've recently been having problems remembering my lucid dreams. My issue, is that when I start LDing, I don't particularly want to stop. I will wake up from an LD, remember it and could write it down, but I choose to instead risk remembering it fully the next day and go back directly into another LD. If i wake up and go to write it down, I won't be able to easily WILD into another one. It's a bit of a tradeoff. What's worked for me, is that during the LDs i intentionally try to remind myself to remember them when I wake up. That seems to work very well. I have never kept a dream journal, even though i probably should start because I really want to remember all my LDs in great detail.
