“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

His change in attitude and performance in your personal areas, is a sign of this. You have also been of great help. Now I suggest that you playfully encourage him to increased motion. He is now aware for the first time clearly, of certain areas of rigidity, and realizes the fear behind them. Some of this is simply that he is afraid of pain if a muscle is suddenly let go. He knows this, but with your encouragement, active but playful, you can accomplish very much here. The body is quite ready to comply now, and he is mentally ready. It is a matter of taking advantage of the opportunity and good conditions.

The flowing hair suggests motion to him also. I wanted to give you this material for it will be of help. Now I suggest you take a break and we will turn to other matters. I presume you are ready for one.

(While Jane and I were on vacation in Florida in July, I rather severely sunburned my feet; I had trouble walking for several days, but was able to drive home on schedule. The episode took place while we were staying with Jane’s father and his wife in Daytona Beach. I thought it most peculiar that only my feet burned when the rest of my body was equally exposed. I also gave suggestion on my part credit for saving, in the nick of time, what could have been a much more stringent situation, possibly averting disablement.)

You also wanted to have an excuse, and a good one, so that you would not have to go out with the couple, lest they become unmanageable. The feet neatly took care of these issues. This was also the reason that neither of you used your abilities in fighting the malady. Both of you subconsciously knew its purpose. You used suggestion to control it, so that it was severe enough to suit your purposes, and yet not so severe that you could not make it home when you wanted to.

(It wasn’t until we were back in Elmira that I realized Jane and I had missed a great chance to use our abilities. I talked about how I should have had Jane hypnotize me, for instance, in Florida as soon as we realized how bad the feet were—giving me suggestions for an extra quick recovery, etc. Yet this simple fact occurred to neither of us while in Daytona Beach.)
