So the other day I woke up bout 40 minutes before I usually do. While I was awake I didnt care to write down my dreams and forget them all very quickly. I went back to bed, hoping to get a little bit more sleep. when I woke up about 40 minutes later I remembered a lot of dreams, enough to fill a page of my dream journal. So that got me wondering, " Do we only remember dreams from our latest REM cycle and forget the rest of the dreams we have that night?"
