So I'm reading Stop Sleeping Through Your Dreams by Charles McPhee, and it's really interesting so far. One of the things he said can help induce lucidity is to do something that will clear your head after you wake up and then go right back to sleep again. He has a long, drawn-out physiological reason as to why, and one of the things he suggests you can do is meditation (along with brushing your teeth and making love :o)

My questions are, does meditation help improve lucidity and/or dream recall in any way? Does anyone have any personal experience with it? Thanks :)
