how to create a vision board that actually manifests

In this blog, we discover practical steps to create a vision board that effectively brings your goals to life. You will learn how to select meaningful images, set actionable intentions, and use visualization techniques to achieve your ultimate aspirations.
What is a vision board?
I’m sure we all have some understanding of a vision board and its purpose, but if you’re anything like me, then you’ve tried to accumulate a bunch of random photos and assume that was all there was to it, and have likely been met with disappointment after hoping your vision board would mysteriously come true. Well, today we’re going to change that approach by first understanding that a vision board itself does not hold any power, you hold the power and I’m going to teach you exactly how to harness it!
When it comes to manifestation, visualization is POWERFUL because it Taps you into the feeling of your desires. Feeling an energy even if it doesn’t exist yet, is how you’re going to communicate with the universe your desires. There is no one whoo haw magic in putting images together and it mysteriously coming true, but there is magic in becoming an energetic match to your desires (law of attraction) and a vision board is merely a tool to help you tap into the feeling through images that represent exactly what you’re creating.
So if you are ready to make a vision board, that actually manifests let’s dive right into it
Step 1
Getting Clear On The Vision
Your vision board is going to have 4 different focal points that we are going to give special attention to
- personal
- relationships
- partner
- career
- home
For each section you’re going grab out ur journal and get real honest with yourself, this can take some time so definitely don’t rush! For each section, you’re going to journal out exactly what you want, how it looks, and how it feels. We mustn’t be only describing what we want but then imagining ourselves with it and how it will feel once we have it. Again, tapping into the feeling is key here.
So if you’re, let’s say, manifesting a new car, why do you want the car, how will you feel driving this car, what does the new car smell like and how proud of yourself do you feel for achieving this manifestation? We’re getting really real here.
During this whole process, we want to be tapping into the energy of our desires and we want this energy to feel good. So while doing this exercise if any feelings of lack, doubt or negativity surface, take a step back and question why you have limiting beliefs surrounding your desires. It’s important you can be honest about your negative feelings too, they exist for a reason, write it all down and map out how your feelings may be lying to you to keep you from expansion. Any negative feelings can also be an indication of limiting beliefs and subconscious patterns that need to be rewired. So really try not to dismiss them because it is crucial that they receive healing and attention for you to truly believe in your dream life!
Step 2
Gathering Images
One category at a time we are going to now begin collecting images for our vision board! You can really get images from anywhere, google, stock image sites, and social media, but I find the best place to cater to creating a vision board is Pinterest! Not only can you collect all your photos here but you can actually make a digital board with categories on Pinterest, so really you’re killing two birds with one stone if you’re going for a digital route.
When looking for images it’s going to be important to really resonate with a picture, and really see yourself in it. You also want to find pictures that reflect the energy you want to feel in this manifestation. As an example, if you’re manifesting friendships that are genuine and fun, you’re going to want the people in your image to reflect this. So perhaps choosing a picture of friends that are laughing together, and sharing good energy rather than one of friends sitting on their phones ignoring each other. Or if you’re manifesting love you’re going to want a picture that displays the dynamic you want in your relationship rather than perhaps a couple looking uninterested in each other. Another tip would be to choose images that closely reflect you, so if you have blond hair, try to choose images with people who share that feature so you can more easily picture yourself as the one in the picture!
Step 3
Putting It Together
As I previously mentioned, you can do this complexity on Pinterest, but I personally like to have a physical representation in my space to serve as a constant reminder when my eyes lay on it rather than needing to scroll through my phone.
So if you’re taking the arts and crafts route here are some tips I have for you.
firstly, you going to need to print out your pictures…duh
If you don’t have a printer you can print at your library, staples, Walmart, friends house etc.
Once you have your images I like to cut and paste them to a billboard, so it’s nice, big, and in my face!
While doing the actual arts and crafts portion you want to make this space feel good, you want to tap into the good energy of your vision board, even making it feel like a ritual can help you tap in. So definitely don’t shy away from using candles, incense, sage etc. Another thing I would recommend is to play high-vibrational music. You can play actual frequencies or just any music that makes you feel good and that aligns with your future self. The main goal to remember is to make this process feel good!
Step 4
The final and most important step is how you’re going to use your new manifestation tool to manifest your dream life! You’re going to make visualization a practice. When you look at your vision board it’s going to help you tap into how your dreams FEEL! You’re going to look at your vision board and imagine yourself having and experiencing it until it just clicks for you, you will feel an energetic shift, and it will all feel so possible, so close, and…so good! This practice is crucial to make your dreams a reality because in doing this you are becoming an energetic match to your desires, and as I said before the universe doesn’t understand words and wants, it understands energy and it reads your vibration, and your energy. It will give you more of what it thinks you want, so stay intentional!!
With these steps, I have no doubt you’ll be living your vision board in no time! And with a little subconscious reprogramming, I hope you have no doubts either! In conclusion, crafting a vision board with intention and clarity can significantly enhance your ability to manifest your goals. By applying the techniques outlined, you can turn your aspirations into tangible outcomes and align your daily actions with your ultimate vision.
