Vision Boards & Collages
So what is Vision Boarding?
My Self-Care Vision Board (fig 1)
Vision Boards are a collection of images, stickers and quotes and are used as a visual aid to help achieve goals, dreams and aspirations. They are fun and creative and time for yourself and act as a motivational tool. My Vision Board package is all about self-care and how this can be incorporated into your daily or weekly life. I encourage you to look at changes you can make to set achievable goals, while spending time to evaluate what's important in your life.
For example if you want to get fit or eat healthy, images, quotes and mantras can be used on your board to keep you focused and to visualize yourself eating more healthy to help you improve your well being.
Another great use for a vision board is a make over or change of image. This is a real self-care exercise, sifting through pictures online or in magazines for new hair styles, clothes, shoes etc and when you see the images in front of you on a daily basis it gives you the motivation, energy and excitement to create the new you.
My Creative Self (fig 2)
Collages are great way to explore our desires, goals and dreams. It can show us a picture of how we would like to live or be as images stimulate the brain and bring forth an ongoing change in the direction we want to go. It's a fully immersive experience, from choosing a theme to scrolling through images online or flicking through magazines and inspirational quotes. Your board becomes a visual aid for motivation and inspiration. It is fun and creative, and time for yourself.
