It is wholly and completely possible to visualize your dream life into reality with manifestation. This is no secret. You see and hear the word “manifestation” everywhere. Why? Simply because it works.
But of course, it’s not 100% magic. You don’t just sit, ask the Universe for whatever you would like to manifest into your life, and hope for the best or patiently wait for it to magically fall into your lap without you moving a muscle.
That’s not how this works.
You have to actively take action for your dreams to become your present reality. Whatever your goals are, whether it’s financial freedom, manifesting wealth, or manifesting the best year of your life — vision boards are one of my favorite manifestation tools to have in your journey.
You can create a vision board for specific aspects of your life or use it to manifest your big-picture goals for your future instead. The possibilities are limitless, especially with the current, you no longer have to spend a pretty penny buying magazines if they’re not accessible to you.
But it’s important to set the stage. I have five important rituals to share with you, from aligning your energy and setting clear intentions to establishing a sacred space and tapping into heightened focus, these rituals create a harmonious foundation that enhances creativity and emotional connection, ensuring that your vision board becomes a powerful tool for intentional manifestation and most importantly, that it works.

What’s a vision board?
A vision board is your personal dream canvas, a tangible manifestation of your aspirations. It goes beyond mere images and words on a board; it’s a heartfelt collage that visually articulates the life you wish to create. By carefully selecting and arranging images that resonate with your goals, a vision board becomes a daily source of inspiration and a roadmap toward your most cherished dreams.
Why do vision boards work?
The magic of vision boards lies in their ability to harness the profound principle of the law of attraction. When you consistently visualize your goals with clarity and positivity, you emit a powerful energy that resonates with your aspirations. This energy, in turn, attracts opportunities and circumstances aligned with your visions, making the manifestation of your goals more likely.
Can a vision board be digital?
Absolutely! In this digital age, the essence of a vision board remains, but the platform expands. You can create a digital vision board on your computer, tablet, or smartphone. The key is to curate a collection of images, quotes, and affirmations that speak to your soul, crafting a virtual space that motivates and empowers you to pursue your dreams.
The two ways I would recommend you create your digital vision board
- Pinterest: I love Pinterest because of its abundant source of visual inspiration, ease of use, and organization. You can easily multiple boards for your specific intentions and scroll through those vision boards instead of mindlessly scrolling through social media.
- Canva: Canva Free is amazing, Pro is even better. This app allows you to use your creativity more when creating your vision boards. There are awesome templates that you can use to design your own. What I recommend you do with them is save those designs you create and use them as your wallpaper on your phone or on your computer. Even better? You can print them out and put them in your physical spaces.
When to make a vision board?
The beauty of vision boards lies in their versatility, making them perfect for any season of life. Whether you’re at the threshold of a new year, experiencing a significant life transition, or simply seeking clarity and direction, now is the ideal time to create a vision board.
The decision to invest in your dreams and take intentional steps toward your goals is the perfect moment to embark on the journey of vision board creation.
Here are 5 Rituals that you should start adding into your routine to help you boost the manifestation energy of your vision board.
Digital Detox Moment
Before delving into your vision board’s physical or digital creation, take a brief digital detox. You may take 24 hours, a few days, or even a week. It’s easy to be immersed in other people’s life in this age of social media. It’s easy to see a picture of the latest bag, the most beautiful travel spot or the most aesthetic experience in a cottage in the woods and say, “Oh, I want that.” But do you?
This is why a digital detox is important to help you re-align with what you want in life and not mistake what others want, as yours. You have to figure out what you want for your life, how you want your life to go deep inside and not just based on how others are living theirs.
Put away electronic devices, turn off notifications, and disconnect from the online world. This ritual allows you to center yourself, free from external distractions and fosters a more immersive and mindful vision board experience.
This also allows you to clear your vicinity of anyone else’s content, dreams, aspirations and goals and focus on what is authentically your own.
Reflective Journaling
Set the stage for your vision board by spending some time in reflection. Grab a journal and jot down your thoughts about your aspirations, dreams, and the changes you’d like to see in your life.
This ritual not only clarifies your intentions but also provides material for your vision board. If you’ve done the digital detox I recommended, this will make your introspective journaling sessions clearer and more productive as it allows you to be immersed and fully present in the moment with yourself.
Candle Lighting Ceremony
Candles have always been symbolic in various cultures and spiritual practices. The soft glow of the candle can symbolize clarity and illumination, infusing your space with positive energy. Two main reasons why I recommend a candle-lighting ceremony:
- Lighting a candle and watching its flame can help center your mind, promoting focus and concentration. This heightened awareness is beneficial for clearly defining your intentions for the vision board.
- The gentle flicker of the candle flame can create a calming ambiance, providing a space for emotional release. It allows you to let go of any stress or anxieties, leaving you in a more receptive state for creative expression.
Choose a candle color that aligns with your intentions. For example, use a green candle for abundance and growth, a red one for passion and energy, or a blue one for communication and clarity. The color adds an extra layer of symbolism to your ceremony.
Enhance the energy of your candle by anointing it with essential oils. Select oils that resonate with your intentions, such as lavender for calmness, rosemary for clarity, or citrus oils for energy. Apply the oil while visualizing your goals.
A good blend for this is a Clarity Intentional Oil, clarity is the one thing that dramatically increases your vision board’s effectiveness. When you have a clear vision, you can focus your attention on the aspects of life that matter most to you. This provides a sense of direction and purpose.
Energy Cleansing with Sound
Use sound vibrations to cleanse the energy in your creative space. Play calming music, using singing bowls, tuning forks, bells, or even a simple chime. Each tool produces unique vibrations that can purify and reset the energy in your space.
This ritual not only purifies the environment but also sets the stage for a positive and harmonious vision board session. As the sound vibrations fill the space, focus on your intention for the energy cleanse. Visualize any lingering negativity dissipating, making way for a clear and vibrant energy that aligns with your vision.
Concentrate on corners, nooks, and areas where energy tends to accumulate. The sound waves can effectively reach and cleanse these spaces, ensuring a thorough energy reset.
It’s equally important to trust your intuition as you conduct the sound cleansing. If you sense areas of dense energy, spend extra time in those spots. Allow the sound vibrations to penetrate and disperse any lingering negativity.
5-Minute Gratitude Practice
A vision board is focused on the future but before you focus on the future, it is important to ground yourself in the present. I encourage you to incorporate a gratitude practice before asking the Universe to manifest all the things you want in life, to give thanks for what you already have.
Say thanks for everything that you have experienced and received last year and up to this point in your journey.
When you engage in a brief gratitude practice, this is what happens
- You redirect your focus from what you are lacking to acknowledging and appreciating what you have
- You become a magnet for positive energy when you express your gratitude. By doing this, you align your energy with positivity which is vital for the law of attraction. Like attracts like.
With a gratitude practice, you are essentially sending out a signal to the universe that you appreciate and are open to receiving more of these positive experiences. This openness and receptivity enhance the manifestation potential of your vision board.
