Mindfulness team bi-weekly check in: Nov 27
Hey Mindfulness team!
Let's check in and post what we are working on the next couple weeks in our roles in Mindfulness. What are you up to?
How are check ins going?
How are welcomes going?
Anything else that needs attention? Share below, I can't wait to hear what you're up to!
@Jill7cups I am working as a Support Session Leader cohosting with amiablePeace77. They are doing a great job in the discussions. Very supportive and responsive to participants.
I also respond to the forums and checkins on a regular basis.
@soulsings
Souls thank you for all you do with the team and for the community
Love your discussions they make me relax ready to bedtime
@Jill7cups
Hey Jill wow time flies right
- Somethings I am doing is brainstorming for a topic to create discussions. Kinda having discussions follow 1 behind the other. Also turning these discussions to the forum discussions for the community that do not like coming into the rooms, but enjoy the forums more.
- Creating a form for the team to see their thoughts on decreasing the daily chack-ins to about 3 a week, and bringing up some forum threads in our other areas
- Talking with some teens on things they like to do concerning mindfulness. So far it is increasing discussions and certain topics, anxiety,relationships and school
- I cover in check-ins and discussions for those that are unable or on self care break
- Creating activities for the team to have whenever they like to open the Mindfulness Room and have some fun time with the community

@RumpleSteeleSkin this is all great!
I love the idea of scaling back check ins and growing other forum posts, that is a nice thing to test and help keep things fresh. I also love the idea of making correlating discussions/forum posts so everyone can participate how they like.
One thing to challenge your mods to do is host some impromptu open chats- it is a great way to have some fun for thirty minutes here and there.
@Jill7cups
Thanks Jill I was actually thinking on that one too
@Jill7cups
Doing the support sessions usually with Soulsings and Dana. I highly enjoy the sessions and are very grateful to my mentor Soulsings having given me the opportunity to do them. I also do 1 or 2 posts per week in the forum.
@amiablePeace77
Peace a HUUUUUUUGE hug and thank you for everything you do here. Also to Dana for supporting you weekly so you can do your discussion. Souls is a great guy and offers great mentoring(sshhh even to me)
thanks hun
@RumpleSteeleSkin
yes they are all great and the big elephant too
, a real kind and funny one called Rumple
Hi Jill!
I wanted to ask you if you can give permission from anyone on the mindfulness team to send me DMs. I know that I need to give permission first and I do. I keep on forgetting to email you!
So check ins have been going great - except yesterday as I was sick for the entire day so I've asked Rumple if I can reschedule. I love the check ins and the community is just wonderful. They are so open and receptive! I want to lead a discussion soon and I said this last time but I will get this done :)
What I want to work on more is being more active in the forums so I'm going to set time each week to ensure this is done. I've recently been asked to work more in Q&A so hopefully mindfulness is on the list of those and I look forward to seeing what you all contribute :)
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS
HI Lisa good to see you here-hope you are feeling better
I do know yes you are right- YOU have to initiate the chat first. Can I suggest that if you are open to get messages "just from the team" that you and Jill email each other and come up with some very clear boundaries. Do this helps you and my team know the boundaries and continue having a good healthy relationship here. I do know that the team is kind and respectful and will abide by this. But yes please do sent Jill an email. @Jill7cups
I appreciate you taking out whatever times you have and spend it here with supporting the community. I know a therapist life can be hectic at times. We all love your daily check-ins that you do weekly for the community. Also when you can figure our a time once a week for 1 hour I am totally open to mod/co-lead the discussion with you. Or some of the other mods on the team can also co-lead with you. As we like to always have 1 mod present in all discussions.
Other then that stay awesome Lisa
@RumpleSteeleSkin
That sounds great. I'd love to do a discussion. How does the 6th December sound? We'll figure this out via DMs :)
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS please announce the discussions in a taglisted post so we know.
@soulsings @rumplesteeleskin
100%!!!! :)
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS
Lisa let's soon discuss a good time please
