“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He had healthy enough body concepts that had to be minimized to give him the symptoms, and this was done by reactivating beliefs he had “grown out of” before his symptoms. His mother gave him the idea that he was not graceful, for example, and this idea was reactivated. He was not allowed to take physical education because he was “not strong enough, and too high strung” when he was in high school. He was told not to run, but walk, to slow down because it was too dangerous to go fast, because he was too nervous. Now those beliefs, which he had dispensed with, were reactivated as aids, and they are the ones that now must be tackled.

Now: the original reasons for the condition are vanishing. In order to bring about those conditions however, Ruburt reactivated old body beliefs that now have to be dealt with.

Give us a moment.... “Slow down because you are going too fast,” (was) told him in his youth; he reactivated those ideas, interpreting them to mean that he must slow down in order to produce mature work. Naturally, left alone, his body and his mind both work fast, and there is nothing dangerous in that. He had been told he would burn himself out, so he came into his late 30’s and tried to slow down. This has been covered in past sessions—many of them. He can trust himself and his own rhythms however.

[...] An entire reactivation is occurring. [...]

[...] Nerve patterns are being reactivated, circulation patterns reinforced, muscles contracting and expanding in their own exercises, right now, in a concentrated, rather intensified bodily commotion. [...]

(Long pause.) He was reactivating old beliefs with their physical representation in the body. [...]

Emotionally you saw this as the death of your mother’s hopes, and felt on the one hand that it was up to you now, so that this reactivated older feelings from the past that you had pretty well handled.

[...] Certain impulses are activated as the body realizes they have a chance for fulfillment—that is, impulses are reactivated in a certain order. [...]

[...] The entire circulatory system is being reactivated. [...]

Those sequences follow the pursuits of value fulfillment so smoothly that they can be reactivated whenever the conditions are fortunate—for even the animals are not concerned with simple survival alone, nor the plants, but with what I can only call (long pause) emotional qualities: qualities that seek a full appreciation and creative extension of those conditions of consciousness that stamp each species as itself and yet join it with all others.

[...] This allows the body to act in an ever-more coordinated fashion, reactivating the muscles’ memories of normal activity. [...]

Energy pathways are being reactivated that were practically at least shut down. [...]

[...] He is experiencing the body’s impetus, its urge toward motion, and to reactivation. [...]

An inability to face or admit, or solve, physical problems, can also be reflected in the physical condition, and reactivate earlier sensitivities, leading to a sense of hopelessness. [...]

Those dreams reactivate Ruburt’s conscious memory of walking normally, and also serve to reawaken nerves and muscles that are connected with normal walking. [...]

If you could see the body with x-ray eyes, or could perceive its activity, you would observe an almost constant reactivation and revitalization of all those parts devoted to motion and locomotion—increased circulation—precisely the amount required: not too much or too little, and overall adjustments, so that all parts of the body are prepared and exercised, so that the final stages of the pattern will then easily seem to fall into place because of the work being done now.

[...] Patterns and pathways of energy are being reopened and reactivated in Ruburt’s body. [...]

[...] Those feelings of fear were reactivated to provide a seemingly reasonable explanation for the earlier natural feelings he was no longer in touch with. [...]

[...] But nevertheless, under various circumstances, such individuals will attempt to reactivate the physical mechanism, becoming more panicstricken when they discover the body’s condition. [...]

[...] There are numberless small tendons being released, joints and nerves being reactivated. [...]

(Certainly the Richard Bach-Eleanor Friede affair is reactivating a probability that was available, of course—or one could say that Jane decided to draw from Framework 2 those certain elements to work with in Framework 1. Interesting to see what happens.
