I stumbled over an old post from an "Adoption Program" forum and thought that it was a pretty cool idea.

Unfortunately it seems that the forum is no longer in activity. It appears as if quite a few new people have joined in the short time since I have been a member of DV and I thought it might be a good experience for newer Lucid Dreamers to have someone to go to 1 on 1 for advice and what have you. Obviously it depends on if experienced Lucid Dreamers are willing to take on a role of mentor for a newer person.

Yes there are the DV academy courses which have been a fantastic resource for knowledge and encouragement for myself and many others, but maybe it would be fun to have a more personal 1 on 1 experience with someone willing to teach.

Personally, I have a pretty high motivation but I have a problem with wanting to "try one of every flavor" which results in inconsistency. Lucid dreaming is a personal experience to the point where almost everyone has a slightly different opinion on what approach to take with different techniques, etc.. which often causes me to switch things up frequently. It would be nice to have a single person to go to with questions and concerns to receive consistent advice.

It could also be a fun experience for the person in the mentor role as well, I often find that when I teach someone a certain topic it helps me understand it more on a different level. I'm sure there are some experienced LDers out there who could take some satisfaction from personally helping someone become a solid Lucid Dreamer - not to mention bragging rights if they turn out to be quite good at it

Anyway just an idea I had, if there are any New/Experienced LDers interested please post and leave a few words explaining what you are looking for.

I can start: I would like to find someone that could help me focus the large amount of information I have learned into a structured plan that I can stick with in order to stay consistent.
