The Sleeping Third

February Dream Summary

February dreams were off the charts, with an uptick in lucidity, overall recall and tons of long detail! It’s always exciting to see bumps like this, though dreams always ebb and flow. I attribute the spike to the seven books I read in February dedicated to either sleep or dreams! Of course, I tend to have high recall already, but the books seemed to have given that extra boost. But that’s not all! I’ve been experimenting with some new bedtime routines to optimize my sleep, re-introduced some days of meditation for closer study (more consistency is on the way!), and I’ve generally felt a higher dreaming energy lately!

And one more thing - it’s my favorite dreaming update! Many people love red light pens to record their dreams in the dark. I hate them! I need a very particular kind of pen to write, and it’s taken me a long time to test dozens of pens to find the best one for me. But, I’ve been getting increasingly sloppy with my night scribbles in darkness, so I had to find a solution. So, I found a small book light with a red bulb. It’s perfect! I absolutely love it. Now I simply switch it on in the middle of the night, and it gives me enough red light to see my notepad easily. Obsessed!

Phew! I guess, “that’s it!” Lol. Loving it. Time for some stats! ✨
