vision board: manifest your dreams to reality

Vision boards are powerful – they help visualize your goals and bring focus towards them. A vision board is recommended to inspire, to focus on your goals by keeping them in sight. It is s physical, visual manifestation for the change you wish within your life.

Once a year I make a new vision board. I do this with the start of the new astrological year, which start with Aries season on the 21st of March. the start of spring, the start of the new life, it is the perfect time for manifesting your new goals, patterns and ideas into the universe. Another timing would be the new calendar year, for example 2025 or your birth day when it is the new start of the year for you personally. But actually you can create whenever feels good for you.

Michael Bernard Backwith is known as the founder of the visualizing process. he states: “Visualizing is an inner, spiritual discipline where we train ourselves to intuitively get knowledge of our spirits plan for our development, career, relationships and creative expression”.

There are a couple of steps that go into creating a vision board, the first step is visualization, the second step is collecting the materials and the final step is to establish the board.

visualization

Visualizing can take an hour, a day or a weekend. Note down all words and images that come to you before, during or after the session. Include locations (city, country) or surroundings (mountains, ocean, beach). You can use this as inspiration.

Start your session with a moment to be grateful. Be honest with yourself. Create space, Open your soul.

Questions you can ask during the visualizing session:
✦ What is my highest vision, that I can see for my life or project?
✦ What should I become, do I want my project to succeed?
✦ What needs to be embraced?
✦ What are the next steps?
✦ What are the ideas on higher consciousness that want to open to me?
✦ Where do I see the highest version of myself? what am I wearing? where am I located?

the creation of the vision board

You can either choose to make your vision board online or offline. Online you can use websites like Pinterest for inspiration and create it in pages or a website like Canvas.

Offline you need a big paper or carton. Go through all the materials (papers, magazines) and cut or rip everything that calls you. Try to make a connection between the pieces.

Use pictures, quotes, glitters, anything that calls your attention. When you have a specific vision, you can always print or draw certain images If you can not find them in magazines.

the establishment of the vision board

Look at the similarities between the things you collected and gathered together. Now you can start to establish your vision board.

Add together energies that blend well, on one side you can add for example future travels, the other side what you want for your future career.

Where to place your vision board?
✦ Place it somewhere where you can always see it, in your office, living room
✦ Place it somewhere where you like the energy
✦ Make sure you place it on eye level, so you can focus on it
✦ If you made an online vision board – use it as a background for your phone or laptop so you see it often

Here is some inspiration of the vision boards I created in the last two years:

This is my current vision board – right after I traveled to Guatemala and Greece. I started the blog/website. but my ideas into action. Shut down my monkey mind, found peace within. This is for 2024/2025. currently I am on my backpacking trip and I started in Nepal.

This was my vision board for the year of 2023/2024 – here I started to live in sync with my cycle, I went to Portugal on surf and yoga holiday, I took my astrology learning’s seriously, and started a course. Met beautiful people and found balance and self love.
