“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(One thing that led to our decision to cut down the visits was that I felt that often Jane seemed worse after the nurses left than she was before they arrived, although her being stirred up for a couple of hours may have contributed to my feeling. But it does seem like a mixed blessing at best. We’re always on the watch for negative suggestions, and some of the nurses dispense these very freely. One of them, Eleanor, visited Jane the last two Mondays and Tuesdays. She is now on vacation, and we trust that the reduced schedule will do away with Eleanor’s visits. She is a nice person who means well, but who also broadcasts negative suggestions like a radio beacon, quite unwittingly. It’s easy to see that she has built her life around such feelings, and is quite pleased with it. [She told Jane she’s had five operations herself.] Jane got so that when Eleanor was here she was constantly saying “no, no, no” to herself as the nurse talked, in order to protect herself from that steady barrage.

They are an attempt to throw a spotlight in the physical area. Ruburt’s skin is remarkably healthy, particularly given the situation. (Pause.) It is not given “to breaking down.” He has been doing his own kind of energy exercises, involving the particular “sore” (the ulcer on her coccyx; it’s slowly closing), but I suggest that he does one of those exercises faithfully every day, and that both of you simply see the area healed. You don’t even have to say “It will be healed,” but simply see it mentally in that condition. Do the exercise as effortlessly as possible, and then forget it.

(9:22.) You are both provided for. All of the elements in your lives will now work to your overall advantage. Your natural health and creativity and motion will be expressed at all levels of your experience. Your intellect does not have to know the answers to all of your questions—but both of you use the last few suggestions I just gave you daily. The intellect feels the truth of such issues, even if it does not fully understand the inner reasons or technicalities involved. You can certainly expect more improvements in Ruburt’s condition at all of its levels. It is taking him time to build up reassurance again after the doctors’ pronouncements.

Both of you trust that each day brings you closer to your goals. The suggestions I have given are all promoters of energy and motion. They are signposts to inner portions of body and mind, deeply reassuring, and can serve to combat the negative suggestions that are often so numerous. Think of the evening as a creative period. As much as possible, let Ruburt follow his body’s feelings during the night. He is still overly concerned about waking you too often, but his body often is expressing its need for motion and change.

Try to identify yourselves with the new season (summer), for the additional activity takes place of course within the structure of the body as well as within the structure of the earth. In a way you bloom biologically even as flowers bloom in the summertime. The suggestions you give help direct your own motion and activity.

(As Seth remarked, the session is an excellent one. and we must try to put it into practice. I think that many of his suggestions are automatically falling into place in our lives, too, and that our “crash course in medicine” has served as an invaluable trigger and impetus in that regard. How ironic it may turn out to be—that a course we avoided for many years—the medical one—may turn out to be the final push we needed in order to put our beliefs in order.)
