Unfortunately for those like myself, I cannot remember the last time I have had a dream. I close my eyes than there is nothingness, no thoughts no dreams just black, than it is morning. this has happened for years now, I don't think lucid dreaming is much of an option.
Did you have dreams as a kid?
You can set the intention to remember your dreams by saying to yourself as you fall asleep "I remember my dreams. When I wake I remember my dreams." Many find that with conscious effort they can remember their dreams
I had very few dreams as an adolescent . In fact so few that I remember every dream I have had. Now there is just nothingness. It has been that way since i was around 10 years old. I like to think that when I sleep it is similar to how death will be.
