Just to let you know that JonW is now the moderator of the Mindful Resources boards and a new board we will be launching called The Thought That Counts.

Gareth and I are working on moderation for the Practicing Mindfulness Forums.

There will be a new board in the Mindful Living section called Mindfulness & Me. This will be a place for anyone wishing to share their story to post it. These posts will be locked and if you post there we will post your story to the sites blog page.

We have plenty more ideas and projects peculating, really exciting and we want everyone to be involved :)

"Peculating" was a new word on me. I looked up "peculate" and found that it means "to embezzle funds". I don't think that's what Fee meant to say!
I feel honoured to have been appointed a moderator of the Mindful Resources boards and to spearhead a new section entitled The Thought That Counts. The idea behind the latter is to have a specific talking point each day and you're all cordially invited to join in the conversation. You don't need to agree with what I'm saying. Feel free to disagree. But let's keep talking.
As Fee says, there are plenty more ideas and projects in the offing, even if they're not "peculating" as such.
This is a great site and it's preparing to expand. Let's all be a part of that adventure. And, meanwhile, let's all endeavour to spread the word.
Cheers, Jon

LOL damn my dyslexia :D
I meant percolate which I have double checked and means - (of information or an idea or feeling) Spread gradually through an area or group of people according to google.
For me it also means letting an idea brew like a good cup of coffee :)

Phew. Glad we cleared that up. I can take the petty cash out of the safe now...

Welcome aboard Jon. :D

I love the idea for your forum, but don't get hung up that you have to post something every single day - unless you want to of course.

Thanks guys.
If it ever starts feeling like a pressure, I'll post more occasionally. For now, daily feels good.
