Читать книгу Understanding Dreams: What they are and how to interpret them - Nerys Dee - Страница 19

Some dreams are so real they make strong impressions which make them hard to forget. Others, however, are fleeting while yet others vanish without a trace. One way to remember them is positively to programme yourself before going to sleep. By appealing to the power of your creative imagination you can link a dream with your memory. This aspect of your unconscious is always ready to receive suggestions so all you have to do is to visualise and talk to yourself in a determined way.

Once you feel ready to go to sleep, turn your attention to dreams. Think of previous ones if you can. Then, relax by breathing in to the count of three, and breathing out to the count of ten. Repeat this twice more, then breathe normally. Without moving, imagine you have just woken up in the morning and as you do, you reach for the pen and write down a dream. Bring your attention back to the present and become aware of feeling comfortable and warm. Finally, before dropping off to sleep, speak to yourself, saying ‘In the morning I shall remember my dreams.’

The best book you will ever read on dreams is the one you write yourself. This is, of course, your Dream Diary.
