You can spend nearly two hours dreaming each night—so why can an entire night of dreams disappear within moments of waking?
In this episode of The Woo Files, we explore the science behind dream recall: what happens to memory during REM sleep, the role brain chemistry may play, and why some people seem to remember their dreams far more often than others.
We’ll also look at the curious connection between briefly waking during the night and remembering a dream, plus a few simple things you can do to improve your own dream recall.
But perhaps the most intriguing question isn’t why we forget so many dreams...
It’s why certain dreams stay with us for a lifetime.
The Woo Files — short explorations of the strange, the mysterious, and the unexplained.
