Just before the eye condition became apparent, the following happened. Some ligaments that had been shortened in the head and neck area began to lengthen. These ligaments control arm motions, head movement, and have been in those terms largely responsible for holding Ruburt in this position, topwise.

Those ligaments had been pulled tightly. Only a small, minute alteration in any ligament or muscle affects all others. These ligaments in particular had been in the process of loosening, before Ruburt suddenly found he could thusly move his head, and look up toward the ceiling while walking.

The beginning release of those ligaments affected muscles that had been thusly held, so that they also began a release. As a rule muscles do not suddenly release an inch or two, and again, the smallest alteration is important. Ruburt mentioned it to you, and noted it himself. Both of you promptly felt it to be quite insignificant. So Ruburt could lift his head an inch while walking. Each of you thought, big deal.

In fact, a significant improvement had begun, for those motions affected all others, beginning to stretch other muscles and ligaments, demanding more circulation, and so forth.

Ruburt’s eyes had worked quite comfortably, moving in a very limited range of motion because of the tightened neck, head and shoulder muscles and ligaments. Simply put, the eyes worked while locked into certain positions or focuses. He had noticed for some time before that he had difficulty rolling his eyes when they were closed, for example.

As the heavy ligaments began to move, some important joints began to loosen. Many muscles, large and small, were tugged upon, and teased into motion. He felt them in various portions of his body. The same happened to the eyes muscles, however, and those are important in vision.

The worry, and the additional tension caused by it, prevented those ligaments and so forth from further improvement until now. Period.

That word and its meaning to him has the power to offset many of his negative body beliefs and projections. In the past two days the following events have occurred. They have been largely ignored by both of you. Several large ligament areas have shown significant improvements in terms of release. I am speaking of the right neck area.

The release of these ligaments, though not complete, brought about changes such as the following: the activation of the entire capillary system; the increase of circulation to the ankles and some observable increased motion in both. The ankles have not suddenly been completely released, but the necessary motions have begun.

That softening means that all of the muscles and ligaments involved in locomotion have somewhat loosened—an overall loosening. The position walking has not altered. It has become looser, however, and at times quicker. The overall motion is what is important. And the knees’ stiffness began in the neck areas.
