How to Remember Dreams

hi welcome to watchmojo.com i’m your
host poorna and today it sits down with
dream specialist monica abdul ahad it’s
going to tell us why we forget our
dreams and give us tips on how to better
remember them why do we forget our
dreams because there are often times
when you wake up and then 10 minutes
later you’ve forgotten pretty much every
detail about the dream you just had yeah
there’s a big recency effect there if
you if you have a pen and paper next to
your bed for example and you write it
right when you wake up you’re more lucky
to remember it because if you keep
waiting longer and longer more things
coming into your head you’ll forget it
why would we remember certain images in
our dreams better than others depending
on sort of the value of it if if it’s
something personal to you you’re more
likely to remember it rather than
something that doesn’t have so much
meaning per se let’s say you picture
yourself in the beautiful filled with
flowers if you’re by yourself you’re
probably not going to remember that but
if your dog comes into the picture
perhaps then that image will stay with
you because of your dog you know you
love them and all these feelings come to
you so it has my personal value
