The Science of Dream Recall

Have you ever wondered why some people remember their dreams so clearly, while others forget them completely  The answer lies in brain activity during sleep. People who wake up more often during REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep    the stage when most dreams happen    tend to remember their dreams better. If your brain briefly wakes up after a dream, you’re more likely to store that dream in your memory. On the other hand, deep uninterrupted sleep often makes dreams fade away quickly.

Habits That Improve Dream Memory

Interestingly, dream recall can also be trained. Simple habits like writing in a dream journal every morning or repeating to yourself  I will remember my dream  before sleep can help improve dream memory. Stress, sleep quality, and even personality traits also play a role. Creative or sensitive people are often better at remembering dreams because their brains naturally pay more attention to emotional or unusual experiences    including dreams.  Shutdown123
