Why Don't Some People Remember Dreams

Why can’t some people remember their dreams?

Very well written BBC article through some might enjoy. Within the article are links to other articles I found equally interesting.

Duke good post. Now reading this
IMO I believe when people remember dreams we are ment to. I also IMO believe and others do also, that when we are asleep it is easy to be contacted by other beings cause we are in a state of relaxation. Either spirits and or interdenominational.
The one thing about the brain no one truly knows how it works. It is the only organ in the human body that they can do surgery on while the person is awake. Not saying all studies are wrong but I was reading before were people (doctors) really don't know why brain or people have certain types of dreams why they happen.

Read this article last night and it's a good one. Gives an excellent overview of how the brain processes. One of the notable things I found in it is how to remember your dreams and the timing of the dreamstate. This correlates to another thread that mentions remembering a dream or it being lucid because you have to wake up to pee! lol Good tie in.

that when we are asleep it is easy to be contacted by other beings cause we are in a state of relaxation.
The study doesn't mean that this doesn't happen. If you believe in non-local reality, that the brain is a "receiver" of sorts, then this can co-exist within the parameters of the study and many other studies. This also leaves the door open for visitors of the spirit kind.

Science and spirituality can co-exist and I hope that sometime in the future that will be proven from the scientific standpoint. Spiritually based people already believe this from a faith standpoint.
 
I’ve tried many of the tricks to remember my dreams. I have the occasional memory but not often. This was interesting on how the brain works though.
 
I definitely remember my dreams. And then the next morning I try to figure out what caused me to dream about that. For instance: last Sunday night before I went to sleep, I had been looking at photos from a friend's last trip to WDW and how she's going back in like 2 weeks. I also looked at a photo of my sister and I from one of her last visits here. Then that night, I dreamed of my sister and I on a swamp tour (I live in New Orleans and there's a tour we've been on together that's 30 minutes outside the city), but neither of us were interested in the actual tour. We sat at the back of the boat on our phones the whole time. Lol THEN the scene changed and we were at WDW acting all crazy. She kept wanting to look at something that I know in real life she'd never be interested in and I kept saying, "But why? You don't like that stuff!"

What does WDW stand for. Sorry I’m not up on all the current acronyms.
