Mapping Your Path One Image at a Time

Have you ever had one of those, When Things Fall Apart, times in your life? I think I'm in one right now.  A blank page can be both exciting, and terrifying, so I'm filling mine with images.

Inspired by things I learned in Lisa Sonora Beam's visual journaling workshop a couple years ago, and by my recent interview with Christine Mason Miller for the Arts and Healing Podcast, I've been pasting at least one image a day in a big 'ole journal.  I choose the images intuitively, whatever stands out and "sparkles" that day.

As I flip through my pages of images, I can see repeating images and themes that give me a glimpse into possible new directions.  Stepping stones on a new path.

What tools have you used to help you find your way during times of transition?



Images are from my visual journal.
