“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He tries at times to use a schedule, a disciplined schedule as a fence against the subconscious, and becomes panic-stricken imagining himself without it. This is not to say that a schedule in itself is not good, it is to say that he can and sometimes does misuse one. In these instances the time is actually used to clamp down on the inner self, rather than to release it. These outings will be of benefit here, not only because they allow for spontaneous interaction, but because they serve to break the schedules in ways that do not disturb working hours. They provide a beginning for a habit of release. Here the ego is helping us now, for it is sticking to these plans, and the plans are those the ego itself enjoys, and can accept. He has been afraid to simply sit and think, for fear of letting the spontaneous self show without the symbolized writing mechanism.

Again: a change of schedules and habits. It is good that you are making these changes. If some were not made, they would be demanded by other portions of the self. They are breakthroughs, and therapeutic. The ego is working with you now, for it grew frightened and is taking steps to change.

The sensitivities are vanishing. Improvements come as the personality learns intuitively, you see, having nothing to do with time in a basic manner. An intuitive grasp may come suddenly with an equally fast disappearance of blocks of symptoms. The spontaneous self is being allowed more freedom now, this is the source of the intuitional understanding.

He is beginning to identify his spontaneous self now with the spontaneity of the nursery school children, and this is a definite improvement. Did you have any specific questions?

Water has healing qualities, and walks by the river when practical, will be of benefit. Therapeutic dreams should be requested each night for now, as standard practice. A small note, not necessarily a recommendation here: a change of hair color would minimize any lingering mother identification.
