3018 - Creating Your Desired Life

[back to quicklinks]
$ 145

 

Putting your fears on paper diminishes their power. Putting your dreams and goals on paper sets forth your intention and allows the universe to respond. Putting your gratitude on paper opens you up to more abundance. Visual journaling is a creative tool that can be used not only as an artistic outlet, but also as a way to set forth the intention to create your desired life. In this inspiring workshop, you will be combining personalized abundance and gratitude exercises along with visual journaling to open up the channels to an abundant life. These exercises will help you get clear about what you want, and manifest more of it into your life.

You will journal and do automatic writing exercises about your fears, personalized goals and life dreams that will be the foundation for your visual journaling. Using paint, markers, pens, rubber stamps, collage and personalized imagery, you will start a book that is dedicated to the abundant you, living the Law of Attraction, that you attract into your life what you think and believe. You will turn those thoughts and desires into artistic, visual expression that will be reminders of your desired life's path. This workshop will lay the groundwork so that when you return home, you can continue working in your abundance book on your own, creating the life you desire.

The book you chose to work in can be anything from a new sketchbook to an old book you have salvaged. Anything and any size is fine as long as it can hold up to painting the pages. I will also teach you how to prepare the pages in your book with gesso, collage and paint. Choose a book, old or new, big or small, that feels good to you and you really like. That will help you want to continue working in it when you go home.

 

This class is for everyone. No writing or art experience necessary! For more information, visit my web site at www.TraciBunkers.com. Questions? E-mail me at traci@TraciBunkers.com
