Part 4: Close Your Eyes, Get Free
What if you've been perfect all along, just covered in layers of conditioning?In the final episode of the Close Your Eyes, Get Free mini-series, Grace shares two powerful metaphors that will completely transform how you think about personal growth. You're not broken and in need of fixing. You're a flawless emerald that just needs the dust wiped away.Drawing from her best-selling book, Grace reveals the Root, Trunk, and Limb concept, why hacking off the "limbs" of your problems (like quitting smoking or losing weight) without addressing the root causes only leads to new problems sprouting up elsewhere. Studies show that up to 80% of gastric bypass patients develop new addictions because the root issue was never healed.You'll discover why stress and anxiety act as the "trunk" that activates all your surface-level issues, and how the real transformation happens when you address the roots: lack of self-love, self-worth, and self-confidence.Grace challenges you to a 7-day hypnosis commitment using the free self-worth recording from the Grace Hypnotherapy app. This isn't about adding something to yourself, it's about removing what was never yours to begin with.Ready to remember who you really are?Timestamps:00:00 Welcome to the Final Episode01:00 Making Hypnosis a Daily Habit01:30 The Emerald Metaphor: You're Already Perfect03:00 Removing Layers vs. Adding Something New04:00 The Root, Trunk, and Limb Concept Explained05:00 Why Surface Solutions Create New Problems05:30 The Gastric Bypass Study: 80% Develop New Addictions06:00 The Trunk: How Stress Activates All Your Issues07:00 The Roots: Self-Love, Self-Worth, Self-Confidence08:00 Your Homework: The Self-Worth Recording09:00 The 7-Day Hypnosis Challenge10:00 You Already Have Everything You NeedMentioned in this episode:Close Your Eyes, Get Free (Grace's best-selling book)Grace Hypnotherapy App: getgrace.comConnect with Grace:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gracesmithtv/?hl=enWebsite: https://www.gracesmith.com/Links: https://linktr.ee/getgrace
