How to create a vision board 32 Posted January 5, 2012 Where we place our attention is what we will create for ourselves. When you realise the truth in this sentence, the power and possibilities that open up for you are limitless. This is why I am a massive fan of The Vision Board. I try to do a new one each year, revisiting where I am and comparing that with where I want to be. And each year I update my vision board with new pics, quotes, and words that represent the future I want to create for myself. Vision boards are the ultimate in manifestation. They serve as a tool to keep you inspired, keep you on track, and keep you motivated. You know all of the Law Of Attraction stuff? Well, creating a vision board and sticking it in your line of sight, is an awesome way to communicate with the Universe about what you would like to collaborate on in your life. Plus, they are fun to make! HOW TO CREATE A VISION BOARD There are no real rules when it comes to creating a visual interpretation of your hopes and dreams. This is why everyone’s board is so different. It’s also why mine are so different from one year to the next. But if you’re the kind of person who appreciates a little guidance, here are some basic steps to follow. 1. Think. Find a quiet place to sit or lie, where you will be able to seek enough solace to get your daydream on. I have a daybed in the courtyard just outside my room/office that is perfect for this activity. Spend some time with your thoughts. Allow your mind to wander into the most inspired future you can visualise for yourself. Ask yourself these questions: “Who am I surrounded by?” “Where do I live?” “What do I do for work?” “Who are my mentors?” “What do I look like?” “How much money do I earn?” “How do I feel?” “What do I want to be?” “What do I want to do?” “What do I want to have?” (Material possessions are totally fine here!) “What will make me excited?” 2. Seek. Now go ahead and find images, words, quotes and affirmations that remind you of all of the images you see in your future. All of the people you want to meet and be around, the places you want to live in and visit, the events you want to experience, the accomplishments you want to reach, the feelings you want to emulate, and the emotions you want to fill your cells with. Use Google Images, Compfight, Flickr, or Pinterest to find images online. Or, flick through magazines. 3. Create. Buy a corkboard or just any old board and pin or stick your images to it. Previously I have just randomly tacked images to a pin board, but this year I went virtual and created my board in Google Picasa. MY VISION BOARD In 2012, while I am still very much focused on bringing my body to amazing levels of wellness, the hopes and dreams I have for myself are mostly based around my career. A few of the main elements of my board reflect these goals: I have just finished writing my first book, and I now I need to find a publisher, and hope that lots and lots of people enjoy reading it. I also want to build this here blog up even more, turn the time and effort I spend online into money to support my health, my family, my goals, and my penchant for lovely things, and spread my message as far as wide as I possibly can. I want to be a speaker, a teacher, an author, and an inspiration to others who resonate with the path I walk. I have several mentors who I admire and would like to learn more from. The people I have on my board are Kris Carr, Marie Forleo, Gabrielle Bernstein, Ellen DeGeneres, Oprah, Zoe Foster, and Kathryn Budig. I have yoga poses I want to nail, and several words I wish you live by. I want to go to New York at the end of the year for Marie Forleo’s Rich Happy And Hot Live event. This board is currently on my computer desktop, and I get a little kick out of looking at it all day. It is also stuck to the mirror in my bathroom, on the inside of my diary, and on the corkboard I have behind my desk (pic right the top of this post). thewellnesswarrior.au/2012/01/how-to-create-a-vision-board/
