Last Thursday night, I took a class at a craft store in Toronto called "Wise Daughters" (http://www.wisedaughters.com/) in which we learned how to make a vision board. The idea is that by creating this, we will activate the laws of attraction and put it out there into the universe that we'd like to achieve these things and begin the process of making the dream into a reality.
The class was taught by Ruth Tamari, who is a certified professional life coach. She started off with a visualization exercise and then walked us through the process of putting our vision onto paper, which involved some time searching through a huge pile of magazines looking for just the right photo. The class was very well structured and Ruth kept us on track, making sure we didn't spend too much time searching for pictures and words and not enough time actually making the finished piece.
My friend Annette took the class as well, here's a picture of her board (which she gave me permission to post). As you can see from the cow and the cowboy boot, s
he dreams of owning a country property one day. I love how she left half of her board empty, leaving lots of room for more dreams to be added.

Here is my board. I had several things in mind while I was collecting pictures and words from the magazines but once I started putting the images on the paper, several of them got left off and surprisingly for me, I ended up with a board that is very focused on the idea of finding a new love for myself this year. In fact, this dream takes up about 75% of the available space, with just one little corner (in the bottom right hand) devoted to travel. Hmm, interesting, don't you think?
