FUN ACTIVITIES - WITH FAMILY TOO

Collaging (Dream Boards) with Magazines
Create one's future goals and desires visually, so they are present now! Remember a picture is worth a thousand words. Start a Birthday or New Year's Day tradition - or any day.
Find magazine images and words that inspire new energies. I recommend gathering all types of magazines, then quickly flip though the magazines and tearing out ANY image or word that grabs your eye. Get a nice pile... then cut them out. Have fun with the shapes. Paste them onto a calendar, paper, cardboard. The dream you are asking for appears!
Hints and Uses:
-
I store the magazines flat with scissors and a glue stick in a reusable plastic bag with the nice strong handles.
-
I keep my pages & cut pieces in a clear zipper bag that bedsheets come in.
-
For my base, I use free calendars that come in the mail or old ones - they are ready to hang up and have lots of pages to fill.
-
Make a collage for a different theme or topic: family, career, relationship, or just do one a month for a year!
-
For kids, etc. this technique can also be used to reveal ones fears, the way something seems, the story we tell ourselves. Or use it to plan a vacation - what does each member of the family want to do? What shows up? What can be learned?
