Earlier this week I woke up and began journaling my dreams from that night. I wrote down three dreams. Then I got out of bed and started my morning routine and was getting ready to leave for work when I realized that I didn’t have any breakfast. Maybe I could pick up something on the way to work, I thought. But then I opened up my refrigerator and looked inside and “ping” I remembered another dream. A fourth dream.
I have been concerned about my overall health lately, specifically my thyroid. It runs in my family, but I don’t believe in prescription medicine for myself. I won’t even take an Advil or Motrin except in the case of a migraine. Over the last year I’ve researched natural and organic foods that can help reduce the size of the small thyroid goiter that I have.
Back to the refrigerator moment…
I instantly recalled another dream I had that night. In my dream I was told that the root of my thyroid was (and this may not be true for everyone) my immune system. My immunity needed to be boosted and that I should drink orange juice. The vitamin C would be beneficial. In my dream I felt that I should continue to take care of this naturally without medication.
The point of this story is not my health or my thyroid. My point is that you can recall dreams when you wake up at two o’clock in the morning or upon waking at your regular time or even in the oddest of places. Usually it’s a word or phrase, a song or a place or thing, such as opening a refrigerator, that will trigger your dream recall.
The key to recalling your dreams is never doubt them and be consistent about writing them down. It’s a practice. The more you do it the better you will be at it. Dreams will seemingly begin to flow and your recall will become a habit. That’s not to say that you will remember all of your dreams. We can have many dreams in one night. Some will be forgotten, but the important ones, the dreams you are meant to get will be shown to you while you sleep.
Several people that I have met and talked to have told me that they dream but they don’t remember them, if they have any at all. Others share them with me or ask me to interpret their dream for them. We all dream every night. Whether we remember them or want to is a personal choice. I feel that recalling dreams is a helpful divination tool. The point of recalling and interpreting your dreams is to get the message that the universe has for you.
