Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
This how-to manual for "manifesting your heart's desire" will no doubt prompt memories of kindergarten collage-making for many readers. Based on her observations of engineers, architects and designers (including toy and theme park creators), Capacchione offers a framework for shepherding an idea into reality, whether the goal is to create a company mission statement, improve one's health or build a dream home. An art therapist, corporate consultant and the author of 10 books (The Creative Journal, etc.), she instructs readers on choosing a theme, gathering images and words that "grab" one's attention, finding order in the chaos, committing one's vision to paper and glue, getting feedback from others, dwelling on one's vision, getting help to implement the plan and celebrating the final result. With a tone that's both playful and serious, Capacchione provides detailed instructions and numerous exercises for working through this process. She also encourages journal writing (using both hands to engage both sides of the brain) and addresses common internal and external obstacles. Even if some of the numerous samples and stories culled from her workshops come across as a bit schematic and glib, Capacchione provides a fun and empowering approach to creativity for those willing to roll up their sleeves and play in the rich field of their desires. (Jan.)

Product Description
A truly visionary book based on the popular workshops of a highly acclaimed art therapist, designer, and pioneer in personal growth through creativity.
In Visioning, Lucia Capacchione, the author of such self-help classics as Recovery of Your Inner Child and The Power of Your Other Hand, shows us that we can transform our lives in the same way that a designer transforms raw materials to meet his or her vision. Drawing on her experiences as a designer and corporate consultant, Capacchione uses the artistic principles she acquired from mentors Charles Eames and Walt Disney to teach readers how to apply a blueprint to their individual lives that will help them to realize personal goals and dreams. Complete with easy-to-follow and playful hands-on art activities and techniques, Visioning sparks "the designer within" and makes real the notion that if you can dream it, you can do it.
