You each have literally incredible power at your command—as each individual does. You should both be able to sense that power, however, more than others, and to direct it where you want it, both together and individually.

You are still both in the habit of minimizing improvements, and negatively projecting into the future, although at times you have spurts of confidence that are responsible for Ruburt’s quite definite physical improvement.

The lack of confidence is what you must both work at, and the old habits of thought. Ruburt is back at writing again, which is excellent. When I make recommendations, such as the library, I make them with the knowledge of their implications, and their importance in the entire picture. This is not an original statement, but the past only has the power that you give it.

Ruburt’s entire body is more pliable. His balance is continually working toward normality. Confidence can vastly accelerate the process, and definitely smooth the way. I suggested that you both use your creativity in that regard—again, a suggestion not lightly made. I want you to understand your power, individually and jointly, in that regard.

Give us a moment.... I want to stress that nothing is wrong with Ruburt’s physical body except for applied tension. The feelings of relaxation and mobility can frighten him—though they do so far less than previously, and less often. The entire body is releasing tension. It is important that both of you stress the safeness of the procedure. The massager is very beneficial now, for his body is pliable enough now to respond—but more, as he used it recently the intent to relax is there. The mechanical aid is good: he is safely seated, and he has also used the occasion to relax his mind.

Released tension in the head area can also change both Ruburt’s depth perception and head pressure, as it lessens. The eyes will at times have a further range—that is, an increased range—while not focusing as clearly as they should, necessarily. The entire picture is as I have given it. Concentrate upon your creativity, both of you, and your power, with the morning suggestions I gave you, and the library. He should not concentrate upon his body.

You have not thought it would have an effect. I am not telling you to take responsibility for Ruburt’s progress at all, but saying that it is certainly to your advantage, and his, that you exert more energy there in terms of active encouragement. There will be times when you are discouraged, each of you, but when one has confidence at any time, the other can use it. It is that one area where each of you believed you had no power to change events, and that belief could impede your progress, at least, even when both of you want a change.

(10:55.) Give us a moment.... Have Ruburt give himself suggestions that he will dream of his Turkish life, for there is information there that can help him now. Overall, you are both doing well. In your painting, remind yourself of reincarnational selves, for there are more portraits ready, and in your nap time, beside rest, both of you give such suggestions:
