We attract everything into our life based on the images we hold in our mind.
Images and your feelings and beliefs about these images attract into your life what you get.
Thus, surrounding yourself with images of what you want, such that they trigger feelings of joy, achievement and success will actually attract things you want! Vision boards are effective and powerful means to help focus your mind on the images that represent what you want in your life.
A vision board is simply a collage or a canvas of what you want in your life.
You put pictures of your dreams on the board and keep looking at this board as often as you can.
The more you focus on these pictures, the better.
It will generate the feelings of joy.
And this will make the pictures come alive! Making one is quite easy.
Get a chart paper or a card board.
Size is not important.
You can make it as big or as small as you want.
It should be big enough to accommodate all the pictures you want to load on to the board and it should be small enough to fit into a spot where you can see it often.
Let's say your dream is to own a palatial house.
Go through magazines or through the internet and see if you can find a picture of such a house.
If yes, cut it or print it out and then paste it onto this vision board.
You can even symbolically draw your house if you have clear requirements.
You can load several pictures if you like for example if you want to attract abundance, you can load pictures of a huge house, some expensive cars, designer clothes etc.
Pictures that represent all that you associate with abundance.
It is important to load pictures that make you feel "wow!" The pictures need to ignite the same joy and passion you would feel on having actually fulfilled your desires.
You must feel these feelings every time you look at your vision board.
You can also add your picture to the vision board to make it more real.
It symbolizes that you are the recipient of all that is there on the board.
You can also add text in the form of affirmations.
For your dream house vision board, you can add something like, "I love this beautiful house of mine!" Or maybe, "I am enjoying the luxury of living in my dream house!" Now, place the vision board at a spot you will see it often.
You could place it at your desk where you work or tape it to your bedroom wall.
You can hang it from the ceiling.
Any place is fine as long as you get to see it often.
The mind needs to focus on these images and so you need to see it often.
Also, it helps to keep this place free of clutter so that energy flows freely and helps keep your vision board energized! You might discard the board after some time if you so feel like.
At some point in your life, if you look at the board again, you will find that you already have several things you had wanted.
That's the beauty of the vision board! It works like a charm.
