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.

(9:10.) Give us a moment.... There is no doubt that Ruburt was deeply shocked by some of the doctors’ pronouncements involving his walking—but already there are signs of loosening in the knees, and in the leg muscles as well. Do not force therapeutic motions. The box idea (propping up her legs while she’s prone on the bed) is an excellent one, but should be tried very gradually and easily at first, and then gradually expanded in time.

(Long pause.) As I mentioned, the beliefs of your society are everywhere embodied in all of its organizations and professions. The give-and-take between any given individual and his or her society therefore are fascinating, as the individual and mass beliefs are reinforced. Since you are starting from scratch, so to speak, then you have only each other to rely upon. Really try to see it as a challenge—the daily reinforcement of trust and belief—so that, again, each of you particularly encourage those emotions of hope and optimism that are so important. In a fashion you are your own church, school, college. In a sense you are your own parents as you attempt to bring into physical reality an entirely new body of concepts and beliefs. You have the individual and joint abilities to aid each other immeasurably in that regard. Earlier you simply were not ready to make that fuller transition, and again, that transition, once decided upon, is indeed effortless.

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.

(9:30.) His situation itself will be different as he gains more energy and strength. And your own energy can also be revitalized. (Long pause.) I do not mean to appear unconcerned, either, Joseph, about your own inconvenience at such times, or the breaking of the sleep pattern. I am saying that the situation contains excellent creative opportunities that outweigh the lack of sleep or whatever thus far experienced.

(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.)
