When I'm dreaming I generally only experience 1 sense. Sight. I therefor find it exiting when I have dreams in which I can Touch and hear. When I say I can hear in most dreams, I can tell what the noises are (for example, I know its raining without seeing it, and I can tell what people are saying) But its like listening to my own thoughts. (Which I guess it is. ) A few nights ago I had a dream that was very vivid, sound wise. As for touch, I can only remember experiencing it once, When I stuck my finger into a candle. I can not remember ever experiencing taste or smell. Basically I only experience hearing in my most vivid dreams. Is there any way I can gain these senses?

Also, how do your senses behave in dreams? I know that for me, when I can hear, It sounds like everything is happening right next to my ears.
