DELETED SESSION

(Today Jane and I were very busy—so busy we were quite late with the session. This morning I typed Saturday night’s session. I finished just in time to eat a bite of lunch before Rusty and Hal returned. Hal demonstrated his massage techniques on me as I lay on the couch, so that I’d know better how to help Jane. They were very effective—so much so that I could have easily fallen asleep; the relaxation I achieved reminded me of the chiropractic treatments I’d had years ago, or of the self-hypnosis effects I used to get any time I had a dental appointment. [I don’t use the hypnosis any more for the dentist, by the way; perhaps a residue lingers, for as soon as I sit in Paul O’Neill’s chair I begin getting very relaxed and sleepy.]

(After Rusty and Hal left we napped, changed dressings, etc., and before we knew it I was hurrying to get supper and do other chores so that we’d have time for a session. Hal and I both had noticed almost a marked improvement in Jane’s condition, especially in her hands, knees and feet. I think the vitamin therapy is helping considerably here, and seems to be following the results listed in Dr. Van Fleet’s book. Jane too is quite pleased. Indeed, her hands look better than they have in probably a couple of years, I’d say; the swelling seems to be largely gone. My idea is that if Jane will continue the vitamin therapy—a term I don’t particularly like—that in a couple of months she might achieve some good results, for as I explained to her, I think the key to curing the decubiti lies in increased mobility, especially in the knees. This will give her more freedom to move in bed.

(After all our hurrying to get supper over with—rather later than usual—we seemed to run out of steam. Jane sat half-dozing at the card table, and I tried to focus on reading some of last week’s mail. She surprised me at about 9:15 by saying she might try for a session, since by then I’d thought it too late. She said she was doing the same thing she did last night before that session: getting scared, lapsing, while at the same time she tried to get comfortable on her backside. We waited and waited. Then, in a voice quite strong and firm, but with many pauses:)

(9:52.) It is time not only to renew the sessions, to begin your new policies, but also to be patient with your own progress once you are certain that you are trying your best. The idea of moving is (underlined) an excellent one, because it symbolically reorganizes your life in new patterns, and releases “energy” that has been stuck in old arrangements.

Again, this will be a brief session, but I will be quite sure you receive the material that you want and need. The organization of the material comes almost in packages, you might say, hopefully to be delivered at the best possible time, so have Ruburt keep his eye out for sessions in the day sometimes, at least for starters (as I have suggested also). The same kind of acceleration, however, applies in your own life, Joseph, and I will also have more to say in that regard.

Ruburt is doing well under these circumstances—I am referring to the last few days—with the help from you that he did indeed so need. This is your own individual and joint expedition. (Long pause.) Hal’s therapy is very good. But you must follow your own dictates right now. Again, remember the two of you have very strong do-it-yourself qualities, exhibited long before the sessions began.

I will indeed end the session, knowing that the session adds to Ruburt’s reassurance, and that the session alone, on its own, releases certain kinds of highly beneficial energy. My fondest regards, and my interest, or inclination toward the both of you follows you, whether, say, we have a session or not. With a bit more relaxation, however, you can have as many or as few as you want for a while, for your individual and joint energies are indeed replenished in such fashions.

(“Right,” Jane said. She paused. Then: “Wait a minute.” And I knew she was going back into the session. This time her Seth voice was even more forceful and confident, and she took fewer pauses.
