Amber picked #26 of the <em>101 Revolutionary Ways to Be Healthy</em> and created a food theme for 2015. This is a great example of creating a vision on a specific topic if you’re too overwhelmed by casting a vision for an entire year, or you want to focus one one area in your life. Amber used a large piece of cardboard, and glue.

 

 

Casie's-Vision-Board-11-2014

Casie took a general approach, envisioning what she wanted 2015 to look, feel, and be filled with. She included community, alone time, a list of goals, art, gardening, food, travel, children and building her new marriage. It’s adhered on an old canvas, sewn on, with paint on top of the images. The travel area flips through places she’d like to visit. The yellow spaces of canvas are to remind her to make space in her life.
