New Year Vision Board Reflection Day
With Fay Adams
Do you feel that you’re a bit off course? Would you like to feel more aligned with yourself and your vision for life in 2025? Does the idea of feeling inspired by a sense of possibility and potential for the coming year stir something within you? Would time to reflect, create and share in friendly company be just lovely?
You’re invited to join us for a day of creatively connecting with your your inspirations, aspirations, longings and dreams for 2025 through making a vision board! You don’t need to think of yourself as creative or artistic to participate – this is a day to follow your heart, leave aside your self-critic and get into the joy of creative flow.
When we give dedicated time to getting out of our heads and connecting with ourselves though following our creative impulse and our intuitive hunches, we are often thrilled and surprised by what emerges.
Vision boards seem to have a magical influence on the future through the power of clarity and intention and through bringing alignment with what feels true to us. If we connect with our heart, we find our north star and then we’re more likely to stay on course.
On the day we’ll combine mindfulness practice and reflection with a long period of silent creative immersion and then we’ll conclude by sharing with others. We’ll give a little bit of kind attention to our self-critic before we begin, so that we feel more free to follow our flow and then we’ll see what emerges!
Before the day you’ll be guided to prepare by gathering materials and inspiring images, quotes or poems. All you need as a minimum is a (preferably) A2 sized piece of card, thick paper or board, glue, some magazines to cut out, some scissors and something to make marks with. Even part of a cardboard box would work! More info will be sent out to you in the weeks preceding the day.
Have a watch of this short video to see an example – my 2024 vision board (credit goes to the Needs Based Coaching Institute for this wonderful idea and for facilitating the workshop that produced this)
You don’t have to be good at art to participate – just allowing emergence of any creativity from within is all that is needed.
