Tips for using it

  1. Half asleep? Record a voice note in the entry and write it up properly once you're awake.
  2. List recurring people and places at the bottom; searching for one later finds every dream it appeared in.
  3. On the web, switch on dark mode for late-night writing that's gentler on your eyes.

Questions

Why keep a dream journal?

Writing dreams down helps you hold on to them, and over time you may notice the same people, places or feelings coming back.

When should I write in my dream journal?

Straight after waking, before you check any messages. Pin the note so it's the first thing you see.

Start with a template, keep it private.
