“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(10:54.) Now Ruburt, because of his beliefs, “artificially” disciplined his muscles so that he would be forced to concentrate upon what it seemed you and he both thought was most important in life—your work.

He felt that for artistic, financial, and personal reasons this was necessary. It was necessary because he believed that the spontaneous self, left alone, would not so concentrate—or that his spontaneous self would not, but would also be tempted by whatever other private pursuits. That belief built up a body of habits so that even when he made headway in changing the basic belief at least, he was left with beliefs about the body that were secondary but habitual; beliefs shared by each of you about his body, so that the evidence was always present.

His eyes did not freely roam, but followed the limited head motions. The neck and throat muscles were held in a particular fashion. Everything fit together. He allowed himself no leeway, or very little, and in that framework the body was limited but predictable.

The entire balance and posture is in the process of the greatest beneficial alteration. He is allowing himself leeway now. He does need to hold on, walking, with all of these changes. It is highly important, however, that he does not project negatively, as the paranoid does (as described in the regular 812th session). You can be of great help there, particularly now. I suggested the use of suggestion through the framework of hypnosis simply because such techniques can be like mental vitamin pills. They provide for the insertion of the required and desired beliefs for use when needed.

Ruburt’s balance has completely changed in a week, so that his weight can now fall on his heels. He gets up easier, as well as sitting down easier—something he neglected to mention; nor did you observe this.
