A Sample Vision Board

Some of you read my earlier post about the electronic age of visualization and the wonderful Vision Board software I recommended.

Well, now here’s a sample of just what you can do with this stuff, especially with all the new improvements to the software (Namely the addition of audio and the ability to save as a video).

Without further ado, here’s my sample vision board … (see my gratitude to resources below)

Much gratitude to Charity Lankford for the use of her song “Peace and Harmony” from her You Are Love album. Check out her site for more on her album: www.charitysmusic.net. I bet you’ll like it as much as I do … in fact I use her Alleluia song on my personal vision board too.

A shout-out goes to my dear friend Kristie Mclean who just happened to be doing a photo project on the word “intention”. And I just happened to have a wad of cash. And she just happened to have an exercise ball to tape the cash too. And well, I got some great images for my vision board!

And of course a grateful shout-out to my partner, Dan Coppersmith, for all the great photos of me while hiking and musing and being. For a nature photographer he does allright with people too. :)

Oh, and if you like the background image in my vision board it’s my own photo of the Pyramid at Gaylor Lakes (as I call it) from Yosemite. You’ll be seeing more of that image when my book Conversations With Nature is released to the public (stay tuned).

Whew. A blog post will get away from a gal when she’s busy being grateful. :)

So, if you like what you see and hear that you can do with vision board software, I highly encourage you to get your own copy and start creating today.

Here’s why I think OrangePeel Vision Board is the best:
* Easy to use interface lets you add your own photos and select from a growing image library
* Associate an affirmation/statement and a power word with each photo
* See your photo-word associations on your desktop and as a screensaver … or anytime you want to watch the show
* Choose from several dynamic views of your visions, or rotate through all of them
* See your word associations in pop-up balloons along your task-bar at regular intervals
* Add audio to your vision – uplifting music or even recordings of your own voice telling you how amazing you are
* Save as a video file so you can even more easily share your vision board with others … you can even add it to your ipod!

Sorry Mac users, this isn’t available for you yet (and I don’t know if OrangePeel will make it that way). Let me know if you find a good alternative.

In the meantime, happy visualizing and creating!

The Electronic Age of Visualization

Once you have created your vision, there’s nothing quite like color and images and even sound to make it come alive!

That’s why many people who do visualization practices prefer a “vision board”.  Traditionally a vision board consists of pictures of what you want to attract into your life – most often pictures cut out from magazines and pasted onto tagboard.

I’ve gone that route too, but now I’ve found an even better path for inducing all the good feelings I associate with my visions.  You see, cutting out pictures from magazines started to feel laborious for me, especially since I couldn’t always find pictures of what I was really looking for in life.  I tried drawing my own stick-figure pictures, and that worked for a while, but now I’ve found an even easier solution.

visionboardAfter much research, I’ve chosen to use and support Vision Board Software created by OrangePeel.  This software will let you upload any picture you want.  It’s easy to find great pictures both in their library and online – just try a Google image search with the keyword of what you’re looking for.

After you’ve got an image loaded, you can associate a phrase and a key word with the image.  For example, I uploaded a picture of me with a friend I met at a seminar who is really interested in the work Dan and I are doing on self-esteem.  I associated the keyword “Attraction” and the phrase “Millions of people are seeking what I offer”.

You can load up to 200 of these picture/word pairings into one vision board, and you can create multiple vision boards.  But here’s the really cool part … your picture/word visions will be dynamically displayed to you, on your desktop, as your screensaver, and even as little pop-up balloons on your task bar. 

I love this software because it keeps my visions in front of me all day long, and keeps me feeling all the good feelings I’ve associated with my visions.  Try it out … really, I think you’ll like it.
