Now, the crucial mother identification is passed, and Ruburt is left with a system of habit, still based on some but relatively little mother identification. Ruburt did receive my message correctly. While the overall stability of working hours and arrangements should be largely maintained, he should make an effort to vary his activities and routine. This will generally help in the breaking up of habit patterns.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

The intensity of interest in other directions is much more important than time. We do not want intense concentration upon the symptoms. In all hypnotic sessions and in all periods of self-suggestion, emphasis should indeed be upon health, exuberance, flexibility, strength and vitality. I mentioned this to Ruburt today, but he thought the idea his own.

The change of environment, out of the apartment, was partially suggested to break any suggestions that might be arising simply from the length, in your terms, of his difficulties. He should when possible, for now, wear yellows and greens to work. He should make a definite determined effort to walk home, for his confidence will grow with the success, you see.

The housecleaning procedures I mentioned should definitely be carried out. The work done in the kitchen last weekend helped him, for the reasons given. Through motor activities he rids himself of identification in a vigorous and aggressive matter, the symbolism worked out in physical terms. Since the symptoms have been physical, this is excellent therapy and most practical from a psychic viewpoint.

This should not be allowed to become a compulsive thing, you see. Certainly no week, for example, should be exclusively set aside. There is a strong charge of energy behind these activities, however, which is therapeutically discharged. You may take your break and we shall continue.

Now, I have other suggestions. Ruburt should specifically request dreams in which he is running, with speed and flexibility, dreams in which he dances well, and dreams in which he experiences a magnificent sense of vitality and physical exuberance.

He should imagine himself, before he sleeps, indulging joyfully in the next day’s activities, and should not concentrate on his symptoms, even if it is to wish they disappear. These dreams should be rather specifically requested.

If possible he should make a strong effort to recall his previous sense of flexibility and not identify his personal image with the condition of his physical body during his difficulties.

[... 4 paragraphs ...]

Symptoms still lingering should not be ignored, of course, but attention should be paid to advancements, and symptoms should not be overemphasized. Ruburt should attempt more and more to break out of these patterns he allowed to build up about him as a result of symptoms. He should tackle the back stairs more frequently, until they lose what negative significance they gained, you see.

These procedures would have been of some help in the past, but now that the basic reason for the symptoms is conquered, the effectiveness of these methods should lead to the disappearance of all symptoms. He must check himself, however. He is in a habit, for example, now, of not bending down deeply and when he catches himself, he must move as he used to.

[... 3 paragraphs ...]

When he discovers he can walk home, this difficulty will vanish. There may be, but should not be, some slight difficulty at first, the result of his own idea patterns, but that is all. If he keeps track of himself, no difficulties at all will arise.

He should take frequent walks to build up his confidence, and to break up the patterns further.

[... 5 paragraphs ...]

When Ruburt replaces the bedsheets, I suggest colored ones. As he goes to sleep this evening, have him try imagining a scene in springtime, with him walking briskly or running. When he walks now on the streets, he should keep the mental image just given in his mind, picturing the whole flexible and fleet image, and the inner self will take steps to see that the suitable adjustments are made. He should remember to give frequent suggestions pertaining to relaxation. This is extremely important.

Once he has given suggestions, he should think of other things, and not check on his progress as this shows doubt. He has, you see, a negative picture of himself walking that must be replaced by a positive one.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

His attention while walking has been centered upon his progress. He should think of other things, even he counts trees and looks about him. Activity is good for him now, you see. I emphasize the therapeutic dreams again. Whenever possible, attention should be directed away from the symptoms. This does not mean he should pretend they do not exist, but they will vanish to the extent that he directs energy away from them.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

My heartiest wishes to you both, and a good evening. Now I will do this evening what I can do for Ruburt while he sleeps, by way of redirecting his inner energies while he dreams. There should be an improvement in the morning, then.
