Lucid dreaming.

Recognizing a dream while it is happening.

THE OBSERVATION

Look closely.

A lucid dream is a dream in which the dreamer becomes aware of dreaming. Some episodes include deliberate actions or changes in the dream scene, but awareness and control are different features. Laboratory research has documented lucid dreaming during verified REM sleep. Dream imagery remains distinct from verification of information outside the dream.

A STARTING PROTOCOL

Make a record.

Keep a dated dream journal on waking. Record the remembered scene, the moment of recognizing the dream, any deliberate action and how certain the recollection feels. Preserve the first account before adding interpretations or comparing it with later events. Use ordinary sleep and spontaneous recollection as the starting point.

Keep the original observation, the method and any interpretation together in the record.
