That is a very good idea thanks

Before you go to sleep you may want to tell yourself to wake up so that you can remember. I don't know if that's already been mentioned.

What can I do to help remember my dreams

What do you see dreams being? First, you begin writing them down in a dream log everything you remember. I would even write down if you don't remember. The statement you feel like you are dreaming is lucid dreaming and now you want to remember it. You begin to find dreams are symbols coming from the unconscious. Now the thing is not only do we not remember dreams but we block them to (once consciousness takes over). What I find revealing about dreams is, to my knowledge, I don't recall ever having a recreational dream. Every dream I've ever had has told me or given me advice about something. I never realized this before. The dream is merely a story. Dreams are not ordinary but created.

So many replies I figure you'll have your questions replied already but my take on this is that the longer after said dream you think and remember about it the better you leave your brain for the next time you try to think about the most recent ones.

Keeping a journal is a must as lots have already said. So write once you wake up and before going to bed that night re read what you wrote to "refresh" that area of your brain :)
