“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

A fond good afternoon. I have told you many times in the past that Ruburt did not have arthritis—and I still take that stand.

His decision not to get weighed (some months ago) was a good one, and at the time it gave him some breathing space, so to speak, which he did use to advantage. He is now assimilating nourishment well enough so that the body can heal itself, and gain some weight besides. It is indeed important that you reread the sessions, and Ruburt’s improved reading status today (when Jane read yesterday’s session after lunch today) should at least give you a glimmer of the improvements that are possible—improvements that will indeed occur as you continue with our “program.” I suggest a brief break. Though if I do not return do not be discouraged, as, again, I am working in line with those rhythms of which I have spoken.

Now, to resume: Your idea of using the sponges is an excellent one, and for now have Ruburt use that same imagery once a day for a starter. This should be done with a light rather than a heavy mental hand, of course.

Any imagery involving motion, done playfully, is excellent. Ruburt imagining himself on children’s swings, for example. None of this should be overdone. It can all come as playfully as Ruburt’s writing comes. The idea, again, is to avoid concentration on impediments. You can admit that they show themselves in the present, while reminding yourselves that they can also vanish.
