As we are navigating a disrupted and challenging period, sometimes planning and visioning can be rather difficult! But perhaps you crave direction and some goals to guide you through 2021?

Join Conny and together we will use our imagination and a creative process called "vision cards" to explore alternative future directions and possibilities. Learn how to create a vision card and use reflective writing prompts to explore your visual collage further.

More than collecting a bunch of beautiful images, your vision card will capture what you value and how to weave it into your life.

What will we cover?

Exploring values and experiences that have supported us so far
Creating a vision card to capture how we might bring these aspects into our lives going forward
Selecting images and words that speak to you
Identifying fresh, surprising and imaginative aspects you might want to invite into your life
Exploring your vision card with reflective writing prompts
Deciphering the meaning behind images and determine goals and actions
Navigating common pitfalls, such as unrealistic visions
Tips on how to get the most out of vision cards and how to keep things real

You will leave this class with a completed vision card and some reflections.
