What’s wrong with just plain and simple colouring? Why “mindful” colouring?

Love mindful colouring exercises! It really does help just zoning in on one thing. Especially if you're like me with the monkey mind all day!

Having said that it is funny when you see things branded as 'mindful colouring' because it is really just a colouring book and I doubt that any scientific research has gone into making it more mindful.

    They need a tag to sell it.

    It’s like Uncle Bitter’s wine casks being labelled “aged” or “premium “.

    True. Another good one is 'Adult colouring books'

    I was hoping for a draw tonight, as it is painful to see Blues or Cats win.

    I keep letting bananas run down to their brownest. Don't get me wrong it's great for smoothies but am I enjoying the richness of the banana in this short time we have on planet Earth? 

    I'll let the viewers decide..

    I just wanted to see Carlton nutted on the line.

    I was the opposite BBO, no one has done what Geelong did to us on that fateful 186 day and I will never forgive them and wish them a loss everytime they play and pray for their downfall.

    I call it a win-win game for us (unless it is a draw, which has its own compensations).

    Can’t understand why May flew up there. Surely it would be better for him to have stayed in Melbourne if there was doubt. Can’t see how being stuck in a plane for 5 hours return is beneficial.

    Interesting to read that several ex Hawk Premiership players that he coached, are not friendly with Clarkson. He has apparently burnt đŸ”„ a lot of his players.

    Very interesting. Could be an Alex Ferguson character.

    Having a coffee with Mrs Redleg in cafe and she asked me how was the coffee.  I said “average “ and she fined me for dissent. I asked if she would like to take up umpiring, as that showed a real flair for it.

    How was the Cask De Shiraz 2023, after the Sydney win Uncle?

    I am sure it would have gone wonderfully with those bbq shapes and cheddar cheese.

    At the time they did, it was more after the fact when he released his autobiography and potted several of his stars. Bit strange actually.

    Longmire just said on AFL Tonight that Hayward was not dissenting to the umpire, but instead was speaking to a Melbourne player. Only problem with that was that he was staring straight at the umpire, when he complained about a free paid by that umpire against him and there was no Melbourne player nearby. Sparrow was the nearest Melbourne player and he was nowhere near Hayward and Hayward wasn’t facing him when the dissent call was made.

    Sometimes it might be better to just let things be, rather than putting your foot in your mouth.

    Seems hard to argue that a Melbourne player was the target -- none of them are even looking at Hayward, and as you said, Hayward is eyeballing the umpire. Horse must be on something strange to be arguing that ...

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
