VISION MAP WORKSHOP
A vision map is a visualization tech-
nique to aid in recreating your life,
your identity, your possibilities. The
transitional experience of grief can
leave you feeling lost; a vision map
can help guide you forward. To go
from where you are to where you’d
like to be requires directed thought,
and this can help you focus on that
direction by clarifying your dreams,
goals and hopes for the road ahead.
This workshop is great for men,
women, and teenagers 16 years old
and up. All supplies are provided, but
if you have something in particular
you would like to put on your vision
board or magazines to share, please
bring them with you. Registration
required.
$15 per person
Saturday, Jan. 19, 1-4 p.m.
