(Anyhow, as I’ve explained to Jane lately, the method seems to be working fairly well, and I expect more success with it once I become accustomed to dealing with it. The idea, of course, is only to integrate the two often opposing points of view, instead of having them in conflict with each other, since, as Seth says, we always have some practical need of Framework 1 activity. But now I’m turning more and more toward Framework 2, making a try at placing my faith and need for solutions there where they can generate their own, seemingly without effort.

She wanted some material on the whole business tonight from Seth. She’s also told me that just this weekend has she realized that she really didn’t want to walk, as “long as it didn’t hurt too much not to.” An important insight that she can use to help free herself....
