“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(The day was very rainy, foggy, temperature 45 degrees. Jane had received three excellent reports on her physical condition this morning, she told me not long after I got to 330. In hydro, the therapist, Wendy, who checks both Jane and her chart weekly, told her that she was doing well, that the knee was coming along great. Terry, who puts Jane through the hydro bath, told her she looks well and was easier to move. And Mary Ann, who changed Jane’s dressings in room 330, said the bedsores look much better in their healing.

(I told Jane she should be really pleased by all these positive signs that she is improving. She is, of course—more steps along the way. Jane said she often imagines herself here at our house, doing various things. That’s the best way to use suggestion, I said: keep the goal in mind and let the unconscious mind see to those healing details necessary to get one where one wants to go.

(3:40. I said I hoped Seth would go into my question of yesterday, about not wanting my own suggestions for Jane’s improvement to come into conflict with her body’s own innate and spontaneous order of healing itself. When Jane resumed the session she got one word out—her shortest session on record. I told her later:)

You should not insist, however, or demand, that a given suggestion take root—for then you might be disappointed if it did not, rather than realize that perhaps it was not time for that particular suggestion to work. Simply allow that mental flexibility, overall suggestions for motion and healing are of course excellent, since they leave it up to the body to do the inner work involved.
