PS: Question

[crows]

Have any of you got experience keeping a regular dream journal? Either public or private, computerized or written longhand...

If so, how do you keep it? Do you write down all the dreams you have, or just ones that seem particularly vivid or interesting? Does it help you remember dreams better when you wake up, with practice? Does it help you have more control over your dreamscape?

I figure, everything - every stimulus, pleasant or otherwise - is some kind of resource. I might as well start trying to make use of more of them.

I have a dream journal that I keep by my bed. Sometimes I just write down a vignette or a feeling or some symbol I think might be meaningful; I tend to consider dreams generally meaningful if I remember something about them when I wake up. It's certainly a good resource for introspection, or possibly outrospection.
