Guided Vision Board Exercise for Women and Families
Step 1: Create a Calm Space
Begin by finding a quiet, comfortable space. If you are doing this as a family, gather everyone around a table or sitting area. Turn off distractions, take a deep breath, and remind yourself that this is a moment to pause and focus.
Step 2: Reflect on the Past Year
Before thinking about 2026, reflect on the year that is ending. Ask yourself or discuss as a family:
What are we grateful for?
What was difficult?
What lessons did we learn?
What do we want to do differently?
This reflection helps you understand what truly matters moving forward.
Step 3: Set Your Intention for 2026
Now, think about how you want 2026 to feel. Not just what you want to achieve, but how you want to live. Ask yourself:
Do I want more peace?
Do I want better health?
Do I want stronger family relationships?
Do I want growth, stability, or balance?
Write down a few simple words that describe your hopes for the year.
Step 4: Choose Your Focus Areas
Select 3–5 areas of life to focus on. For women, this may include health, career, finances, faith, rest, or personal growth. For families, it may include unity, communication, education, home, and shared experiences.
Keeping your focus small helps make your vision realistic and achievable.
Step 5: Build Your Vision Board
Gather pictures, words, drawings, or symbols that represent your goals and intentions. These can be cut from magazines, printed images, or handwritten notes. There is no right or wrong way to do this. Arrange them on a board or paper in a way that feels inspiring to you.
If children are involved, allow them to draw or choose images that represent their dreams.
Step 6: Talk About Your Vision
Take time to explain what each image or word means to you. If you are working as a family, let everyone share. This builds understanding, connection, and support.
Step 7: Turn Vision into Simple Actions
Choose one small action you can take for each focus area. For example:
Health: Take a daily walk
Family: Plan weekly family time
Growth: Learn a new skill
Rest: Set aside quiet time each week
Small steps lead to lasting change.
Step 8: Place Your Vision Where You Can See It
Put your vision board somewhere visible — your bedroom, living room, or workspace. Let it remind you daily of what you are working toward.
In Conclusion
At Women of Dignity International (WODI), we believe that creating a vision together strengthens individuals and families. Vision boarding for 2026 is an act of hope, intention, and courage. Take your time, stay flexible, and remember — growth happens one step at a time.
