Vision Board Essentials

 

Board: Corkboard, foam board, magnetic board, or even a sturdy poster board.  Your vision needs a solid foundation. A corkboard allows flexibility, while a foam board offers structure. Magnetic boards are sleek and easy to rearrange.

Adhesives: Push pins, glue sticks, double-sided tape, or magnets (for magnetic boards).  Push pins and tape help you secure your visuals while allowing for adjustments as your goals evolve.

Images and Words: Magazines, printed pictures, affirmations, quotes, and inspiring words.  Visuals make your intentions tangible and inspire your subconscious to work toward your goals.  You can print some things off of good ‘ole Google.

Scissors: For cutting out images and words with precision.  Clean cuts make your board look professional and intentional.

Markers and Pens: In various colors for writing personal notes or titles.  Add handwritten personal affirmations or intentions to make the board uniquely yours.

Stickers and Washi Tape: To add decorative flair and borders.  These elevate the aesthetic appeal and help organize sections or themes.  You can look in the scrap-booking section at your local craft store.

Crystals or Stones: Small, meaningful ones that resonate with your intentions.  Charged with Reiki energy, they amplify intentions and serve as reminders of your spiritual goals.

Lighting: String lights or fairy lights for ambiance.  Soft, warm lighting turns your vision board into a sacred, glowing reminder of your aspirations.

Frames or Borders: To give the board a polished look if it's displayed prominently.  A frame makes the vision board look complete and adds a touch of elegance.

Envelopes or Pockets: For holding private goals or affirmations.  These are for dreams you want to keep private or revisit later.

Fabric Swatches or Textures: To add a sensory element or represent comfort and luxury.  Engage your sense of touch and add a layer of richness to your visualization process.

Essential Oil Spray or Scented Candles: To create a calming atmosphere while working.  Aromatherapy helps ground you and enhance focus during the creative process.

Vision Board Prompts: Pre-written prompts or areas of focus, like “Career Goals” or “Health Aspirations.”  Offer guidance to ensure all areas of life are covered, from career to health, relationships, and personal growth.

Photos of Loved Ones: To anchor your board in love and connection.  Represent the emotional support system that helps you achieve your dreams.

Affirmation Cards: Customizable, reusable cards that align with your intentions.  Encourage daily practice of positivity and reflection, extending the life of your vision board.

Chakra Symbols: To balance and align energy through visualization.  Representing energetic alignment, they ensure your goals are harmonious and balanced.
