Guide

How to use a dream journal

Dreams fade within minutes of waking. A dream journal by the bed catches them while they're still there, and over weeks it shows the people, places and feelings that keep coming back.
  1. Keep it within reach

    Leave the tablet or a printed page by the bed and write before you check your phone.

  2. Write first, tidy later

    Scribble the dream as it comes back, even fragments. Fill in the date, bedtime and sleep quality after.

  3. Note people, places and feelings

    Three boxes under each dream make it easier to spot recurring themes later.

  4. Mark lucid dreams

    There's a field for whether you knew you were dreaming, if you're practising lucid dreaming.

  5. Review monthly

    Read the month's dreams and note patterns on the monthly review. The sleep log adds context.

What to include in a dream journal

A dream journal needs to be quick to fill in when you're half awake. This one includes:

Calendar

Weekly and monthly pages

Twelve undated month pages for marking which nights you recorded. No weekly or daily pages, so every page is for dreams.

Dreams

Dream Journal

90 dream log pages with fields for date, bedtime, lucidity and sleep quality, the dream, people, places, feelings and what it might mean.

  • Dream Log · 90 pages
Sleep

Sleep

A monthly sleep log.

  • Sleep Log · every month
Review

Monthly Reviews

A monthly review for spotting recurring dreams and themes.

  • Monthly Review · every month

Every section can be switched off in the builder, and sections from other planners can be added.

Digital vs printable dream journal

A digital dream journal in the dark Midnight theme is gentle on the eyes first thing in the morning, and an e-ink tablet has no glowing screen at all.

A printed dream log by the bed with a pen is the simplest version. Print a month of pages on A5.

An example week in a dream journal

One goal, followed through a single week. The milestone and weekly actions are the kind of lines the AI goal step writes onto your month and week pages; the daily notes are what you add by hand.

Goal

Questions

Dream journal questions

Will it help me remember dreams?

Many people find that writing dreams down straight after waking helps them recall more over time. Keep the tablet or a printout by the bed and write before checking your phone.

Can I use it in the dark?

The default Midnight theme is dark, which is easier on the eyes first thing in the morning or at night.

Is there a free dream journal?

You can build this dream journal and flip through every page in your browser for free, with a watermark. The tabs and links work in the preview, so you can check the layout before you pay. The clean PDF is $12 once, or included in Pro at $49 a year for unlimited planners. There is no free download of the full planner.

Does it work with GoodNotes, Notability, Samsung Notes and e-ink tablets?

Yes. Download the iPad size for GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf, Xodo, Collanote or ZoomNotes; the Android size for Samsung Notes, Penly, Flexcil or Xodo; or the E-ink size for reMarkable, Kindle Scribe, Boox and Supernote. The links work in any app that follows PDF links, usually in read mode rather than pen mode. Every size is included in the price.

Can I print the dream journal?

Yes. Choose A5, A4, US Letter or Half Letter in the builder for a printable PDF with a wider inner margin for hole punching. Printable and digital sizes come with the same purchase, so you can use the dream journal on a tablet and print the pages you want on paper.

Does the AI fill in the dream journal for me?

Only the goal parts, and only if you want it to. Type up to six goals and the AI writes a milestone for each month and a short action for each week onto your month and week pages, plus a motto for each month. You can edit every line before you download. Everything else, from the calendar pages to the trackers, is yours to fill in by hand. You can try it 3 times a day without an account.

How many pages is the dream journal?

With the default settings it comes to about 151 pages. That includes 12 month pages, the Dream Journal, Sleep and Monthly Reviews pages and 20 notes pages. Switching off sections makes it shorter, and the builder shows the total as you change things.

Make it yours in about a minute.

Set your dates, device and goals, flip through the preview free, and pay only when it's right.
