“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The case is not yet hopeless, though it is deteriorating. (Pause. Note: not all pauses are noted.) The inner will to live must be revived. It is this inner will to live that is lacking now. At the heart of the condition, there is a series of psychological shocks that occurred.

A physical reversal will be the result of a spiritual change. All those surrounding the woman absolutely must refrain from attitudes of hopelessness and negative suggestions, either implied or spoken. This in itself will bring her some relief. This in itself will allow her to improve to some degree.

The situation is indeed drastic. (Pause.) Her desire to live must be wooed. Any small pleasures that she has should be used in an effort to involve her with pleasure. As much pleasure as possible must be given her to counteract the concentration upon hopelessness and disaster. I cannot stress any of these points too strongly.

If these instructions concerning a beneficial change in mental environment are not taken, then indeed no other advice or medicine will be of help. (Pause.) I will address healing energy to her, to the best of my ability. She is being smothered, you see, by the hopelessness that surrounds her, as well as by her own hopelessness. To relieve any of the environmental negative thoughts and suggestions will bring her some immediate relief.
