I notice a legitimate difference in my dreams when I’m in the habit of writing them down. they don’t change necessarily, but their hold on me does if that makes sense?
I keep a little notebook and pen on my nightstand and as soon as I wake up I scribble down whatever I can remember.
nightmares are normal occurrences! dreaming about death can be jarring but isn’t necessarily a warning sign of anything. sorry that’s happening tho 💖

you have to catch a dream before you lose it to get started, but once you get into the habit of writing down your dreams and bodily awareness when you’re awake (pinching yourself to see if it’s real, for example - in a dream your fingers will pass right through the skin) you may gain better memory upon waking. lots of people say to write them in a physical journal, but i just have a notes app page going with several years worth of dreams. here are some silly ones from recently

💤me and my friend who shall remain nameless have a shared note in the notes app where we log our dreams. we've been doing this for a few weeks now, and it's a great way to keep track of my own subconscious and learn more about my friend.
one day i texted my friend "hey you have pretty violent dreams" and they were like "yeah" and i was like "how do you differentiate between dreams and nightmares" and their exact words were "I win in dream" [sic] and that's the hardest text i've ever read

☁️I’ve been having nightmares lately and I write them down and look up the meaning and try to decipher how it relates to my own life. Even if it’s not true, in a way it is

😃at least casually. don’t delete the accounts but don’t have the apps on your phone either.
rediscover your love of reading thru the magic of recognizing titles strangers are holding on the subway. become a subway reader.
don’t use sound as an escape from your thoughts/feelings/surroundings. grocery shopping without headphones is actually kind of beautiful!
pick up a new hobby or two or three. one of them should be something you’re not good at, and at least one should be no- or low-cost.
never. stop. learning. the library, the parks and rec department, and nearby museums offer great materials already but also usually have free lectures or courses.
go outside more. like, a lot more.
(took this much less literally, so apologies if it’s not what you’re looking for lol — as a narcoleptic I have no tips on how to Not Sleep since Sleep is basically my job)

📚keeps it funky, keeps it fresh! a book for outside, a book for downstairs, a book for bed, a book for the subway, a book for the bathtub…..
