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 am ashamed to admit it .... but .....I was barracking for Geelong.

    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.

    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 ...

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
