Memory Whisperer. For more than 10 years I’ve been helping people release painful memories that keep them stuck so they can be free.

@mu_tbl @Theholisticpsyc Amen to that!

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Every trigger is a trance and you’re the hypnotist.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Correct :)

Three Things That Will Upgrade an Ordinary Life to an Extraordinary Life

1. Heal your trauma

2. Bring your dreams to life by vividly rehearsing yourself living them daily

3. Take action

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@Growwithamaka Taking action is also the only way to receive feedback which leads to corrective action and ultimately: success.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Saying “I’ll try” is cheap. Taking action is priceless.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@EdHorne78 Yes, it feels good embracing ‘constant and never ending improvement’ (Kaizen).

A gentle stretch toward excellence one day at a time.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@EdHorne78 The hubs and I have switched to sharing a glass of Kombucha nightly instead of wine.

Boy do we sleep better!

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Loneliness isn’t a curse. It’s an opportunity befriend yourself, when you just might need it the most.

Concretizing Thoughts: How a Whisper Becomes a Wall

Sometimes, a fleeting thought paired with strong emotion is all it takes to hypnotize ourselves into stuckness.

Sarah (not her real name) told me, “I’m procrastinating a project at work. I need to get it done. I feel like I have a block. I just can’t do it. I don’t even think of it. I keep forgetting until I’m supposed to sleep, and then it keeps me up all night long.”

Sound familiar? Those 2:00 am thoughts that tippy toe out when the ‘anxiety closet’ opens for nightly business.

Sarah had been in a deep “I want to do absolutely nothing” trance since her third, worst round of Covid. Painful. Debilitating. And during that time, she had a single whispered thought: “I want to do absolutely nothing.”

That was it. One suggestion. Paired with emotion. Boom!

Trance.

Sarah was brilliant at it. For three months, she did absolutely nothing. Not laziness. Hypnosis.

But the moment we released the memory and cleared the emotional anchors, her energy came roaring back. By the next day, she was up and taking inspired action on things she hadn’t touched in months.

That’s the power of unconsciously concretizing thoughts. And the even greater power of undoing them.

DM me if you’re ready to break your trance and move again. Let’s find the whispered thought that’s been holding you still.

@Natashado13 Currently I do this one to one. A course is an interesting idea though ;) Thank you Nata.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@Natashado13 I giggle as I read this. A blessing in disguise.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@EdHorne78 Ed, well said! Imperceptible shifts = invisible gains. When it seems like nothing is happening, that’s a great time to remind yourself that so much of growth is invisible, just like a seed sprouts underground, out of sight.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

“Oh my God. They’re so amazing. I’ll never measure up.”

Ever caught yourself thinking that?

If you say “never,” I might think you’re lying.

@Natashado13 “Why not” is a great follow-up question, Nata!

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Self-care isn’t comfort food.
It’s not wine.
It’s not skipping the gym.

Self-care is:
→ Going to bed when your to-do list says “don’t.”
→ Eating for fuel, not feelings.
→ Showing up when you’d rather disappear.

Your present self wants comfort.

Your future self wants freedom. Choose wisely.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@Natashado13 I’ve caught myself eating too fast many a time, barely pausing for food to get on to the next client.

It makes such a difference to pause, chew, and actually TASTE my food, to appreciate it.

Then, I return to work restored instead of rushed.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@Natashado13 It’s true Nata. We operate from trance to trance. It’s only a question of are they the most useful ones? We can upgrade them!

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

@Growwithamaka Thank you. Every day is a chance to break free from the old and forge a new story.

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Ever catch yourself in this comparison trap?

Reply with a “new path”.

Let’s talk about how to shift it, because you’re not alone.

Not even close.

9/9

[Nicola Vitkovich @fasterchanges]

Small shift.

Big result.

One conscious thought disrupts the old path.

Repeat it, and you’re laying down a new one.

That’s how we rewire the brain.

With repetition and compassion.
