5 Simple steps to create your Vision Board--create the life you want!

STEP 1
Gather your supplies
Poster Board Any size that inspires, some go smaller for travel, others larger for the refrigerator, or office
Magazines You can also use postcards, catalogs that are sent to your house, old birthday cards that are collecting dust; you can also grab old magazines from the library, or hair salons)
Glue Hint, Elmer’s will ripple your pages; I use rubber cement, glue sticks or tape
Scissors

STEP 2
Before you begin: Set your intention!
Set the ambiance: Choose a space where you are comfortable, turn on some nice music, light a few candles, turn off your cell phone.
Get Quiet: Ask yourself, what do you really want? Take a moment: Close your eyes, relax your shoulders, take a few deep breaths, let go of any expectation—there is no wrong way to do your vision board.

STEP 3
Gather your clippings
Begin sorting thru your magazines and such. It’s simple, if something speaks to you, makes your heart flutter, or makes you smile—cut it out and start a pile. Some of these things may be images of people, places, things, and others may be words or phrases. Gather first, no gluing yet.

STEP 4
Sort and Place
Begin to sort thru the images and place them on the board. If a picture or phrase no longer speaks to you, toss it out. Some pictures and phrases may relate to each other. Be open and use your intuition.

STEP 5
Glue and finalize
Glue everything on the board. You can add writing if you would like or paint.

And Finally, Be open, and HAVE FUN! :)
