That’s great about your memories coming back via your dreams. That is an important point – that we can recover memories that way, too.
I recover new memories at any time, but especially when falling asleep, and when doing my w/d-induced OCD’ing – checking locks and such. I am really curious about why I will suddenly get a stunningly vivid memory, apparently out of the blue, from the distant past, sometimes a very mundane moment from the past, while looking at a lock or a stove knob!
