How, When & Why to create a Vision Board
The art of vision boarding isn’t new, nor is it magic, make-believe stuff. Vision boarding, or visualising in its most basic form, is designed to keep you in alignment with your goals by reflecting and re-focussing on your intentions each day. Visualising helps you to remember your why and keeps you on track for success.
The term ‘visualisation’ can often have woo-woo/new-age type connotations, however, there is science to support the art of visualisation. There is a great article here by Psychology Today, outlining some truly interesting research in this area.
You can create a vision board anytime you want. I often complete one at the start of the year, using the time in between Christmas and New Years to get clear on my intentions for the year ahead. However, you can complete this activity anytime such as starting a new job, each month, or even on your birthday each year. I know some people even have multiple vision boards for different areas of their lives too!
I like to think of vision boarding as a visual representation of journalling. I’m a highly visual learner so this form of goal setting really does appeal to me. What do you think? Give it a go using the 4 simple tips below. Maybe you’d even like to get some friends around for a vision boarding party - pair with whole foods and great company for a night of inspiration!
I’d love to know what your thoughts are about this process in the comments below or even better, tag me in your vision boards over on Instagram!
Let’s get started…
Most of all, have fun and enjoy the process!
