dream diary
Nocturnal vision log
A dream diary is a journal kept beside one's bed to record dreams immediately upon waking, before memories fade.
The practice serves various purposes—from creative inspiration to psychological self-analysis to lucid dreaming training: I've kept a dream diary for years and notice recurring themes.
Also called a dream journal.
