Why the Visioning Sessions?

We are now entering 2025!

I envision a world where more of us….

  • have clear visions of what we want for ourselves and the world

  • are humble enough to remember we are not in control

  • but are still willing to do the work to manifest our authentic dreams into reality

  • love ourselves and trust our desires

  • harness the power of gathering together to enhance self-awareness and expand what is possible

  • are committed to collective thriving

What are the Visioning Sessions?

The Visioning Sessions are a 5-week process to clarify what you want & strategize how to get it.

Yes, we make a vision board & make space for the mysterious universe to do its magic.

But, we also do the work to:

  • get clear on what we actually want

  • expand our focus beyond ourselves to the collective

  • break-down our desires into strategies, goals, plans, and do-able actions

  • We conduct a self/life audit. We take stock of what we have manifested thus far in our lives & identify what is & is not in alignment. We name the lineages, privileges, and persistent problems that are part of our life story and the current society we are living in.

  • We get reacquainted with who we are today. We get clear on what life is asking of us now. We identify your highest values & priorities.

  • We envision the future that feels like our unique, authentic path…a future that makes our heart sing with the joy of truth. We articulate our hopes, dreams, and desires. We give ourselves the permission to admit what we truly and most deeply want.

  • We investigate the conditions in which we flourish. We find potent sources for sustainable rejuvenation and support. We uncover the places in our lives that are currently blocked from the flow of life force energy. And, we each develop our own self-care prescription.

  • We create systems & strategies to turn our dreams into reality. We translate our visions into goals and plans. We get things scheduled and build in processes of accountability and support.

On the Agenda for each session

Movement & Meditation

We will first use a movement practice that combines yoga with cardio & strength training exercises (think part yoga & part HIIT). The goal will be to get into our bodies and get energized before we begin the introspective visioning activities. Since becoming a mom in 2023, I've mastered the art of getting the most out of a movement practice in the shortest amount of time possible. We will stretch, we will strengthen, and we will get a heart rates up….briefly.

Following movement, we will be still for 5-10 minutes (using meditation and/or breath exercise) to rest and strengthening our ability to use our body and breath as a divining rod for truth.

Tea & Visioning Exercises

We will enjoy a beverage (sencha rose tea, matcha, cacao, etc.) together that has been paired to the theme of each session. We’ll engage in multiple individual and group activities designed to encourage greater self-understanding. We will also work together, over the course of multiple sessions, to create our own inspiring vision board.

What you can Expect…

  • a respectful and safe space for digging in deep and dreaming big

  • An immersive experience where all 5 senses are taken care of

  • A commitment to the collective thriving of everyone in the group

  • lots of fun, connection, and insights

HALLO! I’M ANN!

I love the art of life crafting and want to share all the best practices that I've gathered over the years with others interested in taking their own lives seriously, while having fun doing it:)

I am deeply devoted to the path of awakening. Name a spiritual modality and I've likely tried it. I’ve studied deeply within many spiritual modalities: Tea Ceremony, Kundalini yoga (Kia Miller Radiant Body Yoga 2015), Hatha yoga, mantra, meditation, pranayama, Integrated breathwork, psychedelic medicines, vision quest, and shamanic journeying.

I’m an avid learner and feel at home when teaching and creating.

Though awakening and creating are my passions, I am a scientific researcher by training. I completed a PhD in Sexual and Reproductive Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in 2018, and a Masters in Public Policy from The University of Chicago in 2012.

These two sides of myself are always present. I love both the magic and the mechanics. Therefore, my approach to anything in life combines both the spiritual and the scientific.

I moved to Germany unexpectedly from Baltimore, MD, USA during COVID (I literally got stuck:) and since have gotten married and had two children, one of which died during childbirth. Both of my daughters have been profound sources of joy, aliveness, and growth.

Being uprooted from the life I loved in Baltimore during COVID and the death of my first daughter have showed me how incredibly resilient I am. I have come out of both of those experiences with the conviction that community is the true richness of life and that human beings are capable of so much more than we realize.

The world I want to see is one where people are nurtured in supportive and engaging communities where all are empowered to follow their dreams and live out their true calling(s). To me, having a clear & informed vision of what we want, not only in our own lives, but for society and our relationship to the earth, is a key pillar of a functioning democratic society.

And, hence, the visioning sessions were born as an avenue to support my own vision for the world I want to help create.

Inspiration and Influences

The Visioning Sessions are an ever evolving offering. They grow as I grow.

The source material comes from my own life experiences, insights and observations as well as the work of innumerable other teachers, writers, thinkers, healers, and artists that have influenced me over a lifetime.

Some of the sources directly related to life crafting and visioning that I’ve actively been working with more recently are:

  • Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett & Dave Evans

  • What You Want Wants You by Suzanne Eder

  • Mind Magic: The Neuroscience of Manifestation and How It Changes Everything by James R Doty MD

  • Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life by Roxie Nafousi

  • Unbound: A Woman’s Guide to Power by Kasia Urbaniak

  • The Power of We by Thomas Hübl

  • Vivid Vision by Cameron Herold

And many more!

Rather than following any one process, I’ve curated the best of the best out there on life crafting, designing your life, and manifesting. I’ve gathered the most helpful bits and pieces from multiple trusted sources and have integrated them in a unique way that works for me.

As a researcher, I also love assisting people to uncover and trust their own inner knowing through self study by guiding them through experimentation, introspective questioning, data collection, and analysis of their own life.

I want you to know that…

I do not have training as a therapist, coach or healer

I do not have training in trauma-informed facilitation

I do not teach on topics such as: the law of attraction; using positive affirmations; that we have 100% control over our thoughts; that our thoughts directly create reality; that negative thoughts or emotions are bad, etc. Everyone is welcome to their own beliefs and approaches to creating their life, and should use the tools that help them. To date, for me, these ideas do not feel true or helpful, so therefore, are not tools I use or share.

  • Ann is an incredibly thoughtful & wise guide. Her visioning workshop was nourishing and life-affirming for me. I've developed a closer relationship with myself and what I really want thanks to Ann's guidance and exercises. I’m excited about how I can keep using these tools going forward. I've gained so much and its has been really fun and fascinating too!

    -Kate

  • Working with Ann through her Visioning Sessions has been truly transformative. This wasn’t just another goal-setting workshop—it was a deeply holistic journey that engaged mind, body, and spirit. What set’s Ann’s approach apart is her masterful blend of practical strategy and space for mystery and intuition.

    -Jennifer

  • Each session began with invigorating movement that grounded us in our bodies, followed by thoughtfully paired teas that made every gathering feel sacred yet playful. Ann created a safe, nurturing space that I found myself dreaming bigger than I ever had before, while also developing concrete plans to turn those dreams into reality

FAQs

What if I cannot make all 5 sessions?

Not a problem. I provide make-up materials for each session so that you will have the resources necessary to make up the missed session on your own in your own time.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable clothes that you feel good in and can move in. We will be doing a short workout at the beginning of each session, and you might break a little sweat. Admittedly, I personally do this movement practice whenever I have time, no matter what I am wearing (i.e. jeans or a dress), but sweatpants are my favorite.

What materials are you providing and what materials do I need to provide?

Yoga mats and meditation cushions are available to use at the Art Studio.

You ideally would have a notebook that is solely used for the 5-weeks of visioning sessions.

Though some magazines will be provided, you will also be asked to gather some of your own personalized vision board content (i.e. from your own favorite magazines, instagram, pinterest, etc.).

Colored construction paper (33 x 23) & plain white printer paper will be provided for sketching out ideas and as a base layer for your vision board. Some people maybe choose to bring their own material for their vision board background (i.e. poster-board paper or cardboard).

Materials like glue, paper, scissors, etc. are provided.

What language will the Visioning Sessions be offered in?

English! My German is mid-level (B1) & I know some Spanish (& Berber:), but I will be speaking in English & all materials will be in English. Regardless, with a multilingual group, together, we usually can come up with the right words and ensure that everyone understands.

This is a big time commitment, why do I need this much time to make a vision board?

Making a vision board is only part of this class. We will be using multiple exercises to go deeper and get clear and also to translate our visions into action. In my experience this work times time, especially the in-between incubation time between sessions.

Can I join if I’m not an artist?

For sure!!!! YES!!! I am not an artist either. Making a collage (i.e. artist technique used to make a vision board is) is one of the most accessible creative practices there is. There is no right, wrong, good, or bad. Also, no one HAS to make a vision board. You could also write out a vision document or make a playlist instead of or as a complement to the visual vision board.

What are the dates, price and location info again?

We meet Sundays from 1:00pm-3:00pm on: Dec 29, 2024 & Jan 5th, 12th, 19th, and 26, 2025. The first session will be conducted via Zoom and the rest will be held at Canela Art Studio. The price for all 5 sessions is a sliding scale from 88 €, 168€, or 222€.

What is your contact information & why can’t I find you on social media.

email: annherb@gmail.com; whatssapp: +1.773.706.5919; or German cell phone: +49 157513 45457. For right now, I am experimenting with not using social media.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.
