Visioning® - Bringing Dreams and Ideas into Reality for Yourself and for Your Students

Class Length: 3 hours

Based on Dr. Lucia Capacchione’s book Visioning®: Ten Steps to Designing the Life of Your Dreams, this workshop will be an opportunity to explore your dreams and ideas and begin to bring them into reality through the right-brained activities of collage and journaling. The ten steps of Visioning® can be applied to career, health, relationships, home, and other areas of life and provides a blueprint for realizing personal dreams and goals. It unites the head and the heart and makes real Walt Disney’s statement: “If you can dream it, you can do it.” Have fun and play in this hands-on workshop, where you will create a Visioning® collage using images from magazines, scissors and glue. Journaling activities will be interspersed with the collage making. Use this method in the classroom with your students. This training will benefit all classified staff.
