If you’ve tried and still found that you have difficulty keeping a dream journal, try subliminal conditioning.
Subliminal recordings play motivating phrases at a low sound level for the conscious mind to perceive. What this means is that you won’t hear the phrases consciously. Instead, you’ll listen to them subconsciously. The “Remember Dreams” subliminal audiotape available from Real Subliminal features many motivating phrases.
- I will be dreaming soon.
- I am going to have a dream.
- I am going to sleep and will be dreaming
- I will have several dreams tonight
- I always remember my dreams
- I recall my dreams as soon as I awake
- I consistently remember my dreams
- Every day I remember my dreams in greater detail
- I remember all the details of my dreams
This helps to train your mind to realize you will be dreaming soon and that you need to remember what happens.
Subliminal conditioning is a form of learning that bypasses the conscious mind. It’s a form of self-hypnosis.
