The effectiveness of a vision board comes down to self-belief and really tuning into your true potential. This workshop is about identifying your core self-beliefs, distinguishing the difference between authentic and inherited self-beliefs, silencing the inner critic and collapsing disempowering limiting beliefs, paying attention to what has heart and meaning, setting simple realistic and achievable goals and creating an effective visionboard. *Subsidy applies Course ID: A455 Tutor: Shannon Douglas Explore your Family History
