A good deal for the leg contraction has to do with inhibited sexual impulse. There will be some resistance on his part (touching leg) as you resume a normal sexual pattern, simply because of the pent-up frightened energy.

(We discussed the questions at last break to make sure Seth would cover them tonight: from her records Jane recently realized that coincident with the mailing of the manuscript for Seth Speaks to the publisher, and the death of her father, near November 15, 1971, the condition of her legs took a decided turn for the worse. [...]

[...] And now I feel, strongly enough to mention it, that my legs are growing down through the floor and my head’s growing up toward the ceiling….”

The legs run, and leap over areas of ground. [...]

The mind can interpret the experiences that the legs and the feet have, however, and by imaginatively using that sensual data can perceive the ant’s reality to some extent. [...]

[...] The ligaments in the legs are responding beautifully, and as I said earlier, there is a give-and-take between the trunk and leg areas.

[...] 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. [...] 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. [...]

(After supper tonight Jane became aware of a noticeable straightening of her right leg—the shortest one —so that it appeared to equal her left leg. [...]

[...] You saw the response in his leg this evening. [...]

[...] 3. “My legs have changed quite a bit during the week. [...]

Ruburt’s entire body has stretched noticeably in the last week and a half, the legs in particular. [...]

The sensations in the hips and the legs represent that urge toward motion. Energy wants to be distributed through motion down through the legs. [...]

Leg muscles are straightening out, and being used after being rigid. [...]

The soreness in his legs sometimes at night should be easily understood, for work can be done then when he is not on his feet. [...] He is balancing on his legs and feet, however. [...]

[...] Rooney, our black cat, had been injured somehow in the left front leg, so that for the past four days he had been moving about on three legs. [...]

[...] The legs, in contrast, are resting, in that quieter activity is occurring there now, as the ankles very gently are beginning to regain greater mobility. [...]

[...] The circulation is improved—veins and so forth show more—but he has begun to gain because even in the chair he moves his legs more, which has increased his appetite.

The physical situation is highly active: ligaments and joints in particular being released in the hip and leg area. [...]

[...] Although she has some pain in the lower leg and foot, and the area is tender to the touch, there are no wounds or discolorations. [...]

[...] My arms and legs, and head and neck, began to feel looser and looser. [...]

[...] My knees felt loose as could be, but the muscles in the legs were heavy and stolid. [...]

[...] I felt many reminders and remnants of the experience throughout the next day—Tuesday—especially in the arms and legs: They were often loose and floppy, with a peculiar lightness and ease of motion in the joints particularly. [...]

[...] I feel caught in contradictions—for if Jane’s new feelings in her hips and legs are signs of new muscular activity, as she thinks, and as Frank Longwell agrees, that’s good news; yet those same feelings, her acute and prolonged bodily discomfort, her aches and pains, have caused her to become almost totally inactive. [...]

[...] But at the moment it seems that everything is difficult, or worse, especially so when I worry about how far she has to go simply to get her legs to straighten out at least partially. [...]

[...] But I added that FL could massage her legs “till doomsday,” and it would do little good until we came to terms with the basic causes behind the symptoms.

It is an excellent idea for Ruburt to tell his arms and legs that it is perfectly safe for them to straighten out, to stretch and flex, and to use their normal capacity for motion. [...]
