How to Journal Your Vision for 2013

1. Get a piece of paper and a pen before you begin this process.

2.  Start with five minutes of Centering, Clearing, and Connecting. You can receive a free guided five-minute meditation on how to do this process at  http://www.spiritcoachtraining.com/blog/5-minute-meditation. This is the single best way to access your spirit's vision.

3. Then, as part of your meditation, imagine you are going to your highest and best life, five years in your future. Yes, time travel. Imagine getting into a golden elevator and going up. As you move to higher and higher floors, you feel less attached to your current reality. You will know when you arrive at five years in your future as the doors will open.

4. Look around. What does it feel like, what are you doing, who are you with? Do not judge what you see, just take it in. Spend a few minutes there.

5. When you return back to the present time, take your pen and paper and write down everything you experienced. Write it as if you are in present time, i.e., your vision is happening right now. Write down in words, in a stream of consciousness, what you observed in your vision. Journaling is a way to access your spirit—that is, to go beyond the mind. It can uncover hidden insights about your vision. Journaling is a way to express your spirit without being concerned with the result.

6. Let your writing flow as the words come forth; never edit yourself or worry about spelling or grammar. Journaling is a place of freedom; there are no rules. Let whatever is on the surface come forth, and eventually a deeper understanding about yourself and your vision will emerge.
