MY VISION BOARD

THE BEST vision board!! Manifest your dream reality ✨

Neuroscientist Dr Tara Swart explains: "Looking at images on a vision board primes the brain to grasp opportunities that may otherwise gone unnoticed. That’s because the brain has a process called ‘value-tagging’ which imprints important things onto your subconscious and filters out unnecessary information.”

“The brain assigns a higher ‘value’ to images than written words on a ‘to-do’ list,” says Swart, “And the more you look at those images, the more those images move up in importance.”

And there are ways you can boost this activity, for example, if you look at your board right before you fall asleep every night, the images will be imprint even further. That’s because the brain is very impressionable as it drifts into sleep and so if you focus your attention on something during that period — particularly on something new — those images are more likely to feature in your dreams and thoughts.

This is known as the ‘Tetris effect’ (named after the 1980s video game).
