How to remember your dreams

Great tips for remembering your dreams the morning after on the theme site (a.k.a. "lens") of the information sharing site Squidoo:
1. Maintain good, consistent sleep habits. Not getting enough sleep or going to bed 'dog-tired' can dramatically reduce natural dreaming activity.
2. When you go to bed tell yourself that you will remember your dreams. Repeat "I will remember my dreams" to yourself several times as you drift off to sleep. It sounds odd, but this tip has been shown again and again to be one of the most helpful.
3. Try to wake up slowly to remain within the 'mood' of your last dream. Buy an alarm clock with a gentle wake setting (sometimes called a progressive wake). Here is one idea: iHome iPod Alarm Clock Radio - Great if you are an iPod devotee.
4. Awake at least once during the night, many times this will occur around an REM sleep cycle. Set an alarm or drink a lot of water prior to bed to ensure you have to wake up at least once.
5. Think about (but do not dwell upon) your mood/emotions as you drift off to sleep.
