“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

[...] “If your eyes keep improving,” I said, “maybe eventually you’ll end up with weaker glasses.” [...] Mine had improved a few years ago.

[...] Another improvement, I told her.

[...] Her feet continue to improve. [...]

[...] Perhaps any improvements she can achieve can come about better if we simply leave the whole business alone and quit focusing on it. [...]

[...] Maybe that too was a sign of improvement, I said. [...]

(Jane has had many improvements in her physical condition recently—including her feet and legs. [...]

Physically, Ruburt’s improvements will now begin to show more quickly. [...]

There will be sudden, sometimes spectacular new improvements in comparison with others, and these again will be the result of other less noticeable improvements constantly occurring.

They will be improved as his overall condition improves. [...]

[...] The body is in the process of balancing the right and left sides, and as noted improvements on the right side are being picked up by the left. [...]

He can do this by employing the exercises that you mentioned, that will show him a daily improvement that will help break the negative image and prevent further negative projections. [...]

He can do this as I mentioned earlier by reminding himself of the otherwise healthy state of his body, and being thankful for it, by expecting (underlined) four time’s improvement, and looking for it, and not expecting the symptoms to remain as they are.

Now when he has expected improvements and looked for them he has found them. [...]

[...] When you replaced it the hands began to improve. [...]

[...] Both of us felt good about the improvements, though.

The obvious improvement in Ruburt’s knee is a fine example of the body’s self-healing processes.

[...] (A most important point to remember.) The knee will continue to improve, and the finger also (on the left hand).

[...] Your fears force you to insist upon improvements as fast as possible. Each improvement reinforces your confidence. [...]

There is some overall general improvement, which I want you to note. There will be, however—my next forecast (humorously)—sudden excellent performances, usually of an isolated nature, of one portion of the body or another, with a less noticeable but definite continuation of overall improvement.

[...] Ruburt’s improvements are occurring, as I said. [...]

[...] Yet whenever you begin a new situation of physical improvements with Ruburt, after the first enthusiasm the both of you instantly revert to the old “test-it-out-at-once, check-the-physical-evidence” kind of thinking. This immediately removes the necessary conditions for improvement. [...] When you feel that way then it seems sheer Pollyanna to believe in improvement, for you are again faced with the evidence upon which you focus your attention.

[...] Your joint belief, however, has been roused with excellent results, and when you believe in Ruburt’s recovery he instantly begins to improve. [...]

(Just before the session, and after we’d sat for our own experiments at 9:00 PM, Jane reported several obvious improvements—one notably in the suddenly increased flexibility of her right thumb....)

[...] There have been improvements of late. [...]

[...] Ruburt however, sensing some improvement, wanted instant, complete recovery, and while he handled this better than in the past, tell him, nevertheless at his end he used absolutes again. [...]

The improvements do show that his beliefs are changing, and some of his anger today was simply energy that he has been withholding from himself for fear that it would not be correctly used. [...]

[...] He is improving, however. [...]

[...] When your intimate situation improves, so will his eating habits. But oddly enough the reverse also applies—when his eating habits improve so will your intimate lives. [...]

[...] Your love and concern would not have been so apparent, you would have become dejected as a result of his condition, he would have interpreted that as disapproval and rejection, and a good week’s time might have been spent under the same conditions, so you have improved.

[...] There has been a very marked improvement, however.)

Both of you also have emotional ideas, now being tempered I hope, emotional feelings, that to deny sex or minimize it is to improve your creative capacity. [...]

[...] His eyes are improving. His interest and improvement in the writing area will also help his general condition, for many reasons. [...]

[...] Most of all I want him to realize that his body is improving, and that the improvement can easily accelerate—easily.

[...] Ruburt’s eyes are improving, obviously, since he is working at his copy, and so forth. They do not protrude as much, and are improving in their appearance. [...]

Your house has been calm, Ruburt’s body has improved each day, and his work and yours have been productive. [...]

[...] Her eating had improved considerably also since the sessions began, although I’ve seen indications of this before the sessions started. [...]

His appetite has improved, and he is assimilating his nourishment better than he did before. [...]

[...] “If I get improvements this time, I’ll never let them go like I used to do,” Jane said vehemently. [...]

[...] Her improvements kept up in rather spectacular fashion—for after supper she was able to rotate and flex her arms and shoulders even better than before. [...]

[...] I read her the short session for August 7, in which Seth had said that her physical improvements have already begun.

(“If you keep on improving the way you did today,” I said, “your progress will be spectacular.” [...]

[...] Jane had said yesterday that she’d even be happy with a 30% improvement. [...]

Your ideas about imagining Ruburt at home, without worrying about how (underlined) he got there, are excellent, as these improvements continue to show themselves, they obviously set the ground for further improvements in a more accelerated fashion. [...]

Be thankful for that evidence on your Thanksgiving Day, and although Ruburt did not read as well today, the eyes are indeed still improving. [...]

Some improvements, again, have begun, barely noticed: the additional mobility in the morning, when a short while ago Ruburt would sit for an hour or more after breakfast while you brought him his second cup of coffee. [...] Barely noticeable, you might say, yet very important, and an indication that inner improvements are continuing. [...]

[...] The one instance however will serve as a pattern upon which other further improvements will develop. [...]

If all of my suggestions are followed in line with your general circumstances and Ruburt’s health, there will be vast (underlined) improvement.

[...] I would like to report that the next day I noticed a considerable improvement in the condition, physically.)

(Before the session Jane read her summary of the week’s events, including her continuing improvements. [...]

[...] We have concentrated upon the fact that he could walk better, then, and that the body could improve itself —as indeed of course in that context it can, and does.

[...] The practical value, for example, of good suggestion finally does accelerate into improved behavior, though some periods of time may be involved. [...]

[...] In the same way highly significant improvements not yet visible, are in the offing in Ruburt’s condition, that will, say, seemingly require no effort when in your terms they do appear. [...]

[...] Suggestions should be permissive rather than commanding: you can improve, I know you can, for example; rather than, you will improve, you must. [...]

The psychic environment still needs to be improved. [...]

[...] There may be a flare-up of mental confusion, accompanying any physical improvement or release of symptoms. [...]

This then is the result of improvement. [...]

After the first bad bouts for example, when he improved enough to go up and down stairs without even limping, when he was agile enough at least to climb some rocks at the Glen (Enfield, near Ithaca, NY), to swim after being largely incapacitated, you both acted as if the improvements meant nothing, discounted them largely, and concentrated upon those symptoms that did indeed still remain.

I am not saying that he was completely better then, but the improvements far outweighed the symptoms at that time. [...] That was the result of discounting improvements as they did show themselves, and this applies to both of you.

[...] Improvements in Ruburt’s condition were ignored (underlined) largely by both of you, and instead concentration was upon the symptoms that still remained.

Obviously, then, Ruburt will show continued improvements—and I bid you both my congratulations. [...] The improvements accelerate as you continue. [...]

Your faith and encouragement also allowed him to reach this improved condition. [...]
