During interview recently I asked Peg for a resource that would help me look at my thoughts and label them in a useful way. She recommended this book which I have looked over. I think it can be useful especially if it is studied and talked about with several members. Does anyone else want to know more and possibly share this in a small group?
You can look up the book on Amazon and read the author's comments and reviews by readers.

Comment by joan mueller on December 6, 2011 at 4:46pm Dear Lisa, So far there are four of us who want to discuss this book. Lets talk about when and how often to meet and plan to begin soon after the holidays. This is a good size group.
Best,
Joan Mueller
Comment by Lisa Kuntz on December 4, 2011 at 10:21am I have the book & would like to discuss it with others.
I would be interested in a small group on this book.
Appamada is not just the occasional mindful thought or attentive state of mind, it’s actually a commitment to being attentive. It’s more than just a meditative state of mind, it’s more than just being mindful. It has to do with that primary ethical or moral orientation we have in life, with which we bring into being whatever activity we’re engaged in. Whether in formal meditation, in our interactions with other people, in our social concerns, or in our political choices, it’s the energetic cherishing of what we regard as good.
