[...] Period. [...]

[...] His condition had bothered his eyes then, and they recuperated over a period of time. [...]

[...] There are more brief periods of forgetfulness however than people usually realize, and in these periods often projections have occurred.

Personally, you are now in a period where you are changing probabilities at a swift rate—as indeed your world is. In a democracy, the period of elections and the contemplation of candidates always sets strong probabilities into motion. [...]

In the past, improvements did not “take” for a long-enough period to produce desired results, because of your own lacks of confidence—Ruburt in particular and you secondarily. [...]

[...] Over a period of time Ruburt’s anxieties brought about a like condition, but not observable in the same fashion.

[...] The resulting sensations may be unpleasant at times—but the entire procedure balances itself out so that no one area is under undue strain for any long period of time, as other areas unwind. [...]

[...] Such assurances are important to both of you during this period. [...]

(She had periodic bouts of panic as she ate, and we talked these out to some extent. [...] One of them is that she may have associated punishment with physical motion — this idea stemming from her days at the Catholic home, where the youngsters were made to kneel for long periods of time as punishment for various “wrongs.” [...]

Some of the soreness was the result of the expansion of tissue, the period between a new expansion and the resulting fresh nourishment sent to cellular structures. [...]

[...] When you find yourself in a period of distress, it is because you do not trust your safety. [...]

You have each been in a period of transition. [...]

[...] There have been articles (in the newspapers) about people dying of broken hearts after long periods of time, when hearts were simply regarded as mechanical pumps. [...]

[...] On occasion then he feels isolated, guilty, and is in a period of depleted energy. [...]

[...] He will find himself writing well—inspired, with time for new work and typing manuscripts, with periods of relaxation and ambition.

[...] A certain amount of time spent assembling a certain product, performing the same motions over and over on an assembly line, will at the end of a certain period give you a certain number of assembled items. [...]

[...] Nor did you have any certainty that any self-imposed period of training and learning would succeed in leading you to your goals. [...]

[...] You would each have had periods where you worked nights for a while, and then days, or whatever, or when you began work at eight and worked until one in the morning. [...]

[...] In this period let the conscious suggestions be given with emotion and feeling, and then have him forget all about them. [...]

[...] A period of time where the issue is uncertain on both the part of your present landlord and your prospective buyer. (Florence Halliday, who was once an ESP student of Jane’s.) This, again because of the psychic conditions involved, is highly plastic. [...]

[...] I am not sure here, I believe a three-week period may be involved before the actualization. [...]

[...] There are periods of balance, where for example—and I am using analogies, understand me—you may find a product, a person at a certain balance point, pleased with all aspects of life, in good health, well-off financially, and meeting goals. [...]

[...] So that you actually spend “dead” time—that is, periods that are devoid of creativity while supposedly devoted to it. [...]

[...] The “dead” periods of time should also be watched for, for they are often caused precisely by your conventional concepts of time, eroding the quality of those moments.

[...] In Seth’s terms, through the complicated interactions and communications involving all forms of life, man’s deep dissatisfactions would have periodically helped trigger the resurgence of scourges like the plagues: In 3rd-century Rome, for instance, several thousand people were said to have died each day; estimates are that over a 20-year period in the 14th century, three-quarters of the population of Europe and Asia perished; there was the great plague of London in 1665, and so forth.

In some historical periods the plight of the poor was so horrible, so unendurable, that outbreaks of the plague occurred, literally resulting in a complete destruction of large areas of the environment in which such social, political, and economic conditions existed. [...]

I’m sure Seth would say that the whole affair was hardly a coincidence, since he’s commented several times that new ideas often separately arise more than once in a given historical period.

[...] I think all of this could be counterpart action, all right, personified by two selves living in the same narrow time period, in close proximity in the same geographical area of the Middle East.⁸

[...] (Humorously:) I’ll have a hell of a time with my list of chronological lives (which I have yet to work on, by the way) if I start turning up a whole group of them in one historical period. [...]

[...] When that happens I seem able to at least glimpse other time periods, other realities.

[...] My physical hassles disappear for fairly long periods, and then I’m conscious of one or the other of them. [...]

[...] It is true that one in a period of illness habitually, to one extent or another, becomes susceptible to negative psychic environmentals. [...]

[...] Ruburt’s psychic climate has indeed changed for the better, but in periods of physical symptoms beyond his present norm, you can greatly assist in such a manner, for these are simply—or not so simply—miniature pitfalls. [...]

[...] The length of a road in such a painting, with you, may be connected to the period of time between you and the event you seek information about.

[...] He explained that in a given period of say, thirty days, the suggestions on perhaps but three or four days within that period would be really effective, and that as of now we have no way of knowing the best days. [...]

Ruburt is just coming out of what can be called a rest period. It is true that five months earlier it would not have been possible to get this much valid information through during such a period.

Ruburt’s experience in psychological time today represented a legitimate attempt to dissociate his awareness from physical matter, and was a sign that he is embarking upon another fruitful period of activity.

[...] These periods were contrasted with examples of lucidity: “I’m going to make it,” although such periods were far in the minority compared to her ramblings about performing these rituals before she could perform any meaningful physical act like eating dessert. [...]

The session is apt to go off and on, but for a fairly long period—I am not sure—as we deal with the nature of action and expression. [...]

[...] Frequent, small amounts of food should be given Ruburt during this period, and his ability stressed in dealing with the entire situation, with your help. [...]

For many reasons at various periods in your time there has been particular work to be done requiring numbers, a broad stratum, a physical pool, that would serve as a basis for future generations. [...]

It is a period of great activity, telepathic communication, an overcrowding physically, but forces great new developments and a new synthesis, and this is your present situation. [...]

[...] This time the body’s overall condition, using the method adopted, required a longer period of such stress-transformation, and so the cold condition has been of longer duration.

[...] A note added after Jane’s death in 1984: she worked upon her most interesting autobiography, From This Rich Bed, periodically over the years, but never did finish it. [...]
