[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 4:30 to 4:55 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Long Island, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1110]; this we have had before.

2. Now, as we find, in general the conditions are somewhat improved from that as we have had heretofore.

3. True, there is much to be desired in the physical reactions. But consideration should be given to the fact that the causes and the effects have been long standing, and these may not be expected to adjust themselves with the advanced condition and with the advanced years AS related to such disturbances.

4. But there must be, as was given in the beginning, the proper precautions, a general activity in keeping with adjusting and the desire to so adjust the physical forces, and to ACT in such a manner that THEY may in return act nearer in a normal manner.

5. These then as we find in the main require that there be kept much of that which has been indicated for the body.

6. These we would change; the rest we would keep much as has been outlined:

7. Be more precautious as to those exercises and activities that are KNOWN by the body to be indiscretions in the eating, in the activity for the body. These to be sure, in their proper return, make for disturbing conditions.

8. For the immediate future there has been sufficient of the iodine and calcium (Calcidin) for the system, though this has aided much in giving the proper balance in the activity of the thyroid, the proper balance in the digestive forces as related to the character, the quality, the kind of assimilated forces by this increase.

9. There is a help also in the heart’s activity.

10. True, the cough continues somewhat; but we would make a compound in the present for this; but do NOT, as has been done in some instances, take more than has been indicated SHOULD be taken! This is as much indiscretion as if the body were to do those things exactly opposite!

11. Keep the manipulative forces and adjustments, that we may keep the proper balance through the system in that which IS assimilated.

12. Occasionally, if there is the cough that makes for a great disturbance in the evening or night, a grain of the Calcidin may be taken. It will aid in producing rest for the body.

13. Keep cautiously and consistently the use of the Radio-Active Appliance, and keep the anodes in proper connection to the body - and keep them clean.

14. And we will find these will bring a great deal of help for the body.

15. The compound we would prepare in this manner:

16. To 2 ounces of Strained Pure Honey add 2 ounces of Distilled Water. Let this come to a boil. Skim off what rises to the top and set the rest aside to cool. Then to this as the carrier, add - in the order named:

Gin…2 ounces, Syrup of Rhubarb…1/2 ounce, Syrup of Horehound…1 ounce, Syrup of Wild Cherry…1/2 ounce, Chloroform…20 minims.

Shake this together before the dose is taken, which would be half a teaspoonful WHEN there is irritation, or the tendency to cough of mornings, or an overexercise.

17. Do these things with those activities that have been given, and we should find better conditions for this body, [1110].

18. Ready for questions.

19. (Q) What treatment for weakness in extremities? (A) The manipulative forces that allow the assimilation to bring to the extremities the strengthening through the circulatory forces. Don’t be overanxious but be consistent and persistent.

20. (Q) How often and for what period should the Radio-Active Appliance be used? (A) EACH DAY for at least an hour to an hour and a half!

21. (Q) How often should the osteopathic treatments be given? (A) This will depend upon the needs of the body. As we find, the BETTER manner is to have treatments for two or three weeks, then a rest period for a week or two weeks, and then begin with the treatments again - these at least twice a week. This adds to the body, allowing the adjustments. For manipulative forces osteopathically given, unless there is necessity for corrections, only assist the body in breaking up congestion or congested areas or in assisting ganglia under stress or strain to be so adjusted that the eliminations or drainages in portions of the body are set up and stimulation to active functioning organs is produced. These have been given properly. If the body will adhere to those suggestions in a CONSISTENT manner, we will find relief in same.

22. (Q) Breathing still is very difficult. (A) This is a natural condition from weakness arising from the adjusting of the system to the new conditions broken up by the manipulative forces, the activities and the treatments; and are brought on at times by indulgences by the body! Be CONSISTENT and we will find these will be greatly improved gradually.

23. (Q) What do you suggest to relieve nervousness? (A) The Appliance will aid in relieving nervousness, as will the proper attitudes and the proper relationships of the whole being to constructive forces in the thinking, in the acting, as WELL as the manipulative forces as suggested.

24. (Q) What are specific mental fears from which patient is suffering? (A) These are oftentimes imaginative; at others they arise from the fears naturally created by the incoordination between the cerebrospinal and the vegetative nerve systems; and are the RESULT of what has been builded in the MENTAL FORCES OF THE BODY! Take count with self and see.

25. (Q) What logic or arguments will help dispel fear and how can general mental condition be improved? (A) By the body being, acting, giving, creating in its conversation, in its relationships with others, POSITIVE attitudes, POSITIVE relationships. These will build for positiveness within the body itself.

For that one gives out, that one expresses, that which is a portion of a mental and physical self becomes expressive in the bodily functionings of a disturbed organism especially. Also it is a natural and a general law.

26. (Q) Any further advice for this body? (A) Be consistent and be persistent. This meaning as you would like for the body to respond, act in that manner - in a CONSISTENT manner. Was the body builded in two to three weeks, two to three months? Was the body destroyed in the destructive forces in two to three months?

It has been a builded thing, and hence mental and physical forces coordinating together will build for CONSTRUCTIVE forces if put into active force in the body itself.

27. Do that.

28. We are through with this reading.
