Do You Have A Vision for the New Year?

Hey, there!

As 2024 loomed, our team gathered to create vision boards identifying our wishes and intentions for the new year. We're doing it again in 2025! Vision boards are a representation of your intentions and goals - typically small to large poster-sized boards, with images and text that you choose to represent the things you're trying to bring into your life. If you'd like to try one for 2025, here's what I recommend:

• Think about 5-7 things you would like to happen in your life.
• Find a quiet space to work for a while.
• Gather 4 things: a poster board or paper; scissors; a glue stick / tape; and magazines.
• You can get free magazines from local libraries - call ahead to make sure they have some to share. They don't need to be about anything particular - for example, a Costco magazine might have just the right word or photo you need to visualize "healthy," or a tourist magazine can easily represent "strength" or "adventure."
• Skim through to find words and pics that represent your vision. (For mine last year, I focused on "perfect health" as a big goal - and picked a few visuals to represent good food, exercise, and mental clarity.)
• The idea is to set your intentions, post them on the board, then hang the board in your home or a room where you'll see it everyday. You'll naturally take active steps toward making those abstract ideas come to fruition through your conscious and subconscious mind. 
• You don't need to know the "how" to make your goals happen, just set your intentions. No matter what they are (i.e., learning to be more patient, creating a new relationship, traveling more, finding a job you love; speaking kinder or more lovingly to yourself), and watch how the universe helps you manifest these desires in various ways over time. 

Vision boards are a great tool practiced by people from all walks of life - and a beautiful  piece of artwork to have in your home. There really are no rules to how it looks. It's about crafting something that you'll glance at everyday, which will consciously or subconsciously inspire you to realize your dreams and goals. Some focus on specific ideas, others - the bigger picture of what you want your life to look like.

Happy New Year and here's to manifesting your dreams!
