It is a habit of cautiousness, that is translated of course into muscular cautiousness. Remind him, for the 100th time, that he can trust his inner self implicitly, and does not need to set up guards against its spontaneity, for spontaneity is his life, and the source of his creativity; and underline that sentence.

Some of these mental habits can be cured rather easily, comparatively speaking. When he felt joyful yesterday, the sense of release was translated, as it should be, into physical expression – he sang, for example. This automatically released, exercised and relaxed areas of the chest, shoulders and back. He felt like running, and made a halfway respectable attempt to do so.

Give us a moment. When he feels mentally happy, and he does often, have him in his imagination translate the feeling into spontaneous physical motion. We are trying to initiate some small exercises that will encourage freedom, both mentally and physically.

We simply want to remind him again of translating the idea of motion into physical motion. These are merely techniques to help along particular lines. Now, basically, spontaneously he is sympathetic and understanding. The feeling of contempt he had for the sick or crippled has long vanished. Tell him indeed that annoyance with his own symptoms could now prevent him from helping others as well as he might, because the energy devoted to maintaining the symptoms is not being used for such constructive purposes.

He is at a point where they are ready to break up entirely. I want to see that he takes advantage of this. The mental patterns are beginning to break up, and I want to be sure that this is translated into physical behavior, completely. The spring and the recent good news are having an effect, and the knowledge he gained this afternoon has given him a conscious understanding that he did not have before; and this will automatically minimize the symptoms, in a way that is not at once apparent.
