dawn rem naps section added
Worth mentioning that one of the people kept waking up every 20 minutes for a long time even after leaving Zoidberg, so one should be aware of such possibility when attempting this schedule. Same warning can be applicable to any other nap-only schedule though.

It was suggested that it might be possible to have [[SOREM]] in naps during the dawn hours (close to the REM peak) even if they are placed close to each other, which is based on the observations how monophasic sleepers often keep dozing off during the morning, getting more and more REM each time, which is also a common technique for increasing dream recall in the lucid dreaming community.

There were also a few reported cases of getting SOREM in a couple of naps during the dawn hours with a short gap in between (around 60 minutes), which suggests the possibility of placing naps more densely on [[Everyman]] schedules or SPAMAYL.
Generally this method can be used for increasing time spent in REM. A dawn pronap often is used to achieve the same, but a few naps instead can have benefits for those, who tend to wake up after 15-20m of SOREM. This should also be beneficial for dream recall, since for some sleepers pronaps often end in light sleep, which makes more difficult to recall any dreams from the SOREM. Triggering SOREM more times and waking up from REM more times increases chances of the dream recall.
