Vision Boards for Success and Empowerment
A vision board is a great way to get you thinking about your own goals and dreams and taking steps toward manifesting them.
In my May 2012 Psychic Art column I provided an Automatic Writing exercise to assist readers to connect with the energy of their higher self. Completing this exercise prior to starting on your vision board will assist you to clarify some specific goals for manifestation that align with your highest good.
Whilst completing the above exercise you can, in addition, ask your higher self for your personal power symbol and an affirmation for the coming year to accompany it.
January’s exercise is about creating the energy you wish for 2013. Decide on a statement that focuses your intent.
The addition of your personal power symbol into your vision board will enable you to harness your soul’s strength and energy. Focusing your intent using a specific channelled affirmation will ensure that the energy of the vision board is focused. This will ensure that you can create a visualisation board for the future that encompasses your true soul’s desires.
The use of a creativity plan can also be a great way to assist you to plan stages toward achieving your desired goal, whatever that may be.
So let’s get started! Here are some items that you may want to collect together in order to start the process of creating a vision board:
• Large selection of magazines – to cut up
• A blank canvas or large piece of hardboard
• Inspirational words and pictures
• Glue or sticky tape
• Material/ribbon/sequins
• Paints or pencils
• Arty materials you may have collected already
• Small crystals
• Old postcards.
Psychic Art – Vision Boards
To start the process
• Take a large piece of paper, hardboard or canvas and write your statement/affirmation of intent.
• Relax and channel the energy of this intent on to the paper
How to make and use your vision board
Your personal vision board is only limited by the extent of your own creativity. Having artistic ability is not a requirement for creating a vision board
The general elements that a vision board should aim to contain are:
• Visual – Your subconscious mind works in pictures and images, so make your vision board as visual as possible. What’s more, you can supplement your pictures with words and phrases to increase the response you get from it.
• Emotional – Each picture on your vision board should evoke a positive emotional response from you. Your vision board should make you feel happy and increase your passion to achieve it every time you gaze upon it.
• Location – Your vision board should be located in a place that gives you greatest exposure to it. You need to constantly bathe your subconscious mind with its energy in order to manifest your desires more rapidly.
• Personal – Negative feelings, self-doubt, and criticism can damage the subtle energy that your vision board emits. If you worry that your vision board will be criticised by others, then place it in a location where it can only be seen by yourself.
In addition
• Personal Power Symbol – Your personal power symbol will add strength and focus your personal soul energy within your vision board. Include the symbol anywhere within your vision board that you feel drawn to include it.
Making a vision board is a part of using the law of attraction to fulfil your dreams and desires. Having determination, belief and patience are also important parts, as without them, the vision board is just merely a collage. Regular visualisation, meditation and positive thinking also play an important role. Each of these need to be used regularly in conjunction with the vision board to enable your success. Why not make it a daily ritual to sit and meditate on all your goals and dreams on your board. Believe and feel as if you have already achieved them. Daydream, even if its 5 to 10 minutes, a minute is better than none. Make this something that you look forward to doing, even first thing in the morning to get in a positive frame of mind for your whole day.
Virtually anything that you want to include can be put on to your vision board. It is your space to create, manifest and plan the future you desire. Enjoy the process!!
