Always Forget Your Dreams? These 5 Tips Might Help Them Stick

Have you ever had a dream that gave you valuable information, knowledge you were completely unaware of in your waking life? While some dreams don't have much use or value, others can be profound. Intuitive dreams can warn you of potholes on the road ahead and give you guidance on action steps to take to improve your life. Here are five ways you can increase the amount of intuitive dreams you experience.

Creating space could look like delegating chores to children or roommates, making open space in the evenings after work to futz around on a hobby whenever you can, performing a ritual, phasing out some of the unnecessary busywork at your job, or hiring someone to help you clean or organize your home. If you can, set aside an afternoon with no agenda and let your soul lead you to your joy, whether it's a long walk in nature, a warm bath, or a phone call with an old friend.

Some dreams are nonsense, but by simply making note—perhaps in a mental review on your train ride into work or while you are preparing breakfast—of your dreams the night before, you are reinforcing to yourself that you already have dreams you remember. Perhaps you woke up with a song in your head that had been playing in your dream. Go online and listen to the song, making note of the lyrics and if there could be a message in them for you. Acknowledging the dreams you remember will make the idea of getting important messages from your dreams feel less far-fetched.

Some people might receive premonition or intuitive guidance dreams and second-guess the message. If you receive information that comes as a complete shock to you, like the name of a supplement you've never heard of or the title of a book you've never read, it's worth investigating this information when you wake up. If someone you know comes to you in a dream and tells you they have a crush on you or that they want to promote you at work or that they are secretly jealous of you, this may be your intuition's way of giving you information you could not have easily gathered in daily life.

When we place importance on something, it can grow. Those dreams that right now seem fragmented and unclear might become crystal clear, helpful messages from your intuition in time. By jotting things down in a journal and quickly researching (either through a book or an online class) what that dancing bunny might have meant or why you were flying through the air on a magic carpet, you are putting energy toward your dream life. And where your energy goes, things grow.

And if you're just not a big dreamer, even after giving these a try, don't get frustrated! There are plenty of other ways for the universe and your intuition to send you guidance. You can find many more in my new book, Angel Intuition.
