“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The idea of playfulness, and even of fun and ease, must be maintained. Ruburt must find the game fun, not resolutely pursue it. The “as if “ will automatically retrain muscular motion, and without effort.

In the past he often used the image of himself, in his terms “before I got sick,” as a basis of comparison. Worse, he sometimes used the twenty-year-old physical self, which automatically led to some very negative attitudes, since he simply is not twenty.

When advance is seen in these other areas, the weight gain will be automatic. In seeing himself in his “as if” game, the healthy image should include ordinary weight, but without stress upon it.

Now certain habits should automatically drop away if the game is played correctly. He is not dressing with the freedom of an ordinary healthy good-looking young woman, for example, so he must dress for the role in his “as if” game. Healthy women do not dress to cover up their bodies, to hide their knees or their arms. They dress to show them off.

If the “as if” game is played correctly the dressing habits will change automatically, again without stress. Ruburt fears humiliation. Acting as if he were perfectly healthy, such imagined humiliation would not be automatically projected. This is one area where both of you will have to watch, contrasting the game against immediate physical data.

Done properly this game will be played almost automatically, but the entire mental patterns will change and hence the physical. Quickness of mobility will easily return. The suggestions should also be retained. They are very helpful. The “as if” game will increase the suggestions’ worth by dissipating habitual areas of thought that combat them.

You should look for a house when you are ready, that you want and desire regardless of the amount that it cost, and the means to get it will come. If you think you are being reasonable by looking for a lesser house, that seems more within your means, then you are selling yourself short, lacking the trust that more will be given. The feeling toward such a house will automatically guide your experiences within it. Do you follow me here?
