As a member of the International Association of the Study of Dreams (IASD), I help them maintain various lists of books and videos about dreams. I invite you to visit the ASD site and peruse the many titles you'll find there.

Recent Dream Research Publications

This is a fairly thorough list of recent (mostly scientific) publications about dreams from a variety of journals and magazines. Sometimes I come across a particularly good one about sleep, and will include it here also.

Here are some of my favorite dream related websites. Some of them are very informational - great resources. Some of them are simply fun.

International Association for the Study of Dreams
|
The International Association for the Study of Dreams is an international organization made up of sleep scientists, physicians, psychiatrists and psychologists, academics, authors, and PEOPLE WHO SIMPLY LOVE DREAMS. I invite you to visit their website at www.asdreams.org. You will be amazed at the wealth of information, but fun and useful, that they offer to visitors. However, one of the most important things in my mind is our Ethics Statement. I practice dreamwork by this code because I think it is so important for the people I work with. I invite you to read it.

Dream Recall
|
I have people tell me all the time that they don't dream. That's a misconception. Only about 5% of the population doesn't dream. It's more likely that you simply don't recall your dreams. They are lots of things that you can do to improve your dream recall. Some are easier than others, some are more effective than others. It's an individual thing. Here is a list of Dream Recall Tips that I've collected from numerous dream scientists, authors, and professional dreamworkers. Be gentle with yourself. Don't expect miraculous results on the first attempt of any one technique. Remember, it takes 21 days to create a habit. It also takes habitual effort to see the maximum results from these tips.

Sleep Hygiene
|
Funny term isn't it? As a sleep scientist I learned that this is what other sleep scientists and sleep doctors call good sleeping habits. If you don't recall many of your dreams, one of the first things you should look at is your sleep hygiene. I've collected here a long list of Recommendations for Quality Sleep made by sleep physicians and scientists on ways to improve the quality of your sleep. By maximizing the quality of your sleep, you can also maximize your dream time, and hopefully increase your dream recall.
