Your suggestions this evening were good ones. He is actually more frightened by business relationships than you are, to say the least, even granting that his training is not as specific. As he begins to understand these issues he will expand, as he should in these directions.

Selling door to door had to him the subjective advantage in that he was master of the situation, and was indeed the invader. The hapless householder was on the defensive. This will no longer work, and I suggest he not consider it. In his own way he had been brooding. He would like some prestige in terms of position and financial benefit, that earlier did not concern him.

I suggest your break.

You will both benefit from your vacation. There will be no sessions. I even suggest that you dispense with your psychological time experiments during that time.

I know that this next suggestion will meet protests on both of your parts, for what you suppose to be practical reasons. Nevertheless, because of your particular constitutions, small vacations should definitely become a part of your yearly existence; and when you expect them, the means for them will come. But faith must be shown.

You will have to strike a balance. Too many influences of this nature would be distracting, but some are definitely necessary; and again now, I would suggest that you invite a few congenial visitors to your home. Telepathically and through the inner senses, you pick up extremely valuable and diversified data in this manner, that is enlightening and helpful to the subconscious, and broadens the psychic base of awareness.

I suggest your break.

I do have a suggestion, and a suggestion only, for Joseph. Tomorrow afternoon I suggest a long, carefree, refreshing and solitary walk in the afternoon usually devoted to painting time.

The proximity of the river to your apartment should be utilized. I also suggest that you dispense with psychological time for the remainder of this week. You need now to recharge your batteries so to speak, and this should be most pleasant and enjoyable. As a special favor in this direction, I will end the session.

You will find that the sort of focus, the particularized focus achieved in the free contemplation and enjoyment of nature, is a welcome change from the dissociated focus aimed at to some degree in psychic pursuits. If possible I suggest that Ruburt forget until after vacation all problems, concerning his job or a new one.
