I am pretty sure that the title of the site doesn't matter so much in the name of the site. At least when it comes to SEO work anyway.
www.livemindful.org is the one that is sticking out to me at the moment. I am a little unsure as to whether it is grammatically incorrect or not. Consider the words grateful/gratefully (comparable words I think). Does it matter if you say live grateful or live gratefully. I'm not sure. I also like www.mindfulforlife.org, although I don't think that it is quite as snappy as the former.
Give me your ideas for things you'd like to see on the site too.

I'm a bit of a stickler for grammar, I'm afraid, and livemindful, though snappy-sounding, is not strictly grammatical.
What I particularly like about mindfulforlife as a name is that it acknowledges that the commitment that is required if one wishes to remain mindful.
I was talking to someone the other day about a Jon Kabat-Zinn Book and they didn't really get what I was talking about (maybe I wasn't explaining it too well). But they said, "So, it's a kind of self-help book, right?" And then I found myself trying to explain why mindfulness is far removed from anything to do with the self-help industry. That it offers no get-well-quick cures. That it's really about a lifelong commitment to being compassionate towards oneself and others. That it's a kind of personal philosophy, a way of life, a way of looking at life, a way of experiencing life in the moment.
For me, mindfulforlife gets that idea over wonderfully well.

I am sat with the developer right now. We are having a long discussion about site names, you wouldn't believe how many domains out there are taken. I was reasonably lucky to get the name that I did. Most of the names are taken to be honest although mindfulforlife.org is available. If somebody can come up with a catchy .org that is not already taken, then you will have done well.

Mindfulforlife still does it for me.
Looking forward to seeing how the new site looks.
I guess a chat facility would be a nice touch when the numbers bump up.
