Greetings!  
 
I've been asked to do a few more Vision Board workshops - they've been popular! You are invited to this powerful workshop - create a VISION board of what your ideal life looks like. Clarify the life you want and it spontaneously begins to take shape. When I visualized in detail what I wanted, wrote it down, spoke about it - my dreams eventually were realized - publishing a book, and having Jack Canfield write the foreword (see below about Jack Canfield's video about visioning).
 
Another example. When I moved to Switzerland, I created a clear intention to have an one-person exhibit at a well-known gallery in Geneva before I left. My own show went up two months before my husband and I returned to Swtizerland.
 
 NEW VISION BOARD WORKSHOP:
 Wednesday May 19th from 6:30 to 9 pm
Michelle Christie, who founded Motivators and Creators, a non profit group for women to achieve their dreams, has invited me to give a workshop at the Church of Ascension at 104 Park Avenue, Mt. Vernon, NY 10550. Light refreshments and materials included for a fee of $45. Participation is limited so please contact Michelle to register: macswomen@gmail.com
 
Jack Canfield, co-author Chicken Soup for the Soul 
I visualized meeting Jack Canfield, and I did.  I asked him to endorse my book, which he did. This is how it happened: on my way to a convention of the National Speakers Association, I wrote my goals and intentions, and wrote down meeting Jack.  The next day, I was standing on a line, turned around and there he was, all alone.  I blurted out a hello, then moved into asking him for an endorsement.  He congenially said to send him the manuscript.  Even better he wrote the foreword for my book, 365 Daily Affirmations for Creativity.

3. RECEIVE - be "home" to receive - a positive mind, good feelings
 
Jack Canfield's movie on how dream boards work.

Start by being grateful and happy as if your dream is coming true in the present. According to the law of attraction, you attract the people, things, opportunities that are on the same wavelength as you are.
 
Be the change you wish to see in the world.  M. Gandhi

Janet Luongo's vision board - video, cooking, love

 
The life I visualize: I did a vision board two years ago - see photo above, clockwise from bottom left - a garden, a kitchen full of family cooking & eating together, a practice counseling, a private life with intimacy and time in solitude (reading), and a room for a camera studio.  In the center was a gathering of women
 
I am realizing the life I visualize! - planning a simple herb garden lots more cooking, growing my coaching practice, a sweet life with my husband, lots of time reading, AND I set up a spare room when my son moved out and now have it set up with lights and a professional camera, where I do some of my videos for local TV and youtube.  Just like on my vision board, really!
 
This is where you come in: the central image of gathering women.  You can join me to create your Vision board at a workshop planned by Michelle Christie of Motivators and Creators. There are a few spaces left. Register at macswomen@gmail.com.  
 
See you here!

HATTI'S VISION - COME TRUE  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hattie Parker, aura consultant
The story of Hattie Parker.  She attended my January VISION BOARD workshop.  Here's what she told me in March.
 
"Remember how I put a picture of beach and sun and water in my treasure map? I placed on the vision board the word Miami. My sister just bought and gave me a condo in Delray Beach FL!!! This was just such a surprise. Pretty powerful!"  Hatti Parker
 
If you look at the detail in a corner of her Dream Board in which she placed a home overlooking the ocean, you see the word Miami, which Hatti says she hadn't even noticed before.  Delray Beach is very close to Miami!
 
 
      This is the right side of Hatti's board.
