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

Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:10 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ohio. (Physical Suggestion)

  1. EC: Yes - we have the body, [1459].

  2. Now as we find, while conditions are very good in many respects, there are those inclinations the correction of which in the present would not only relieve the body from some of those disturbances that upset it at times in the present, but would prevent a great deal more of distress later on.

  3. These then are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1459].

  4. In the blood supply we find the indications of lack of proper eliminations through the system; also of overtaxations; so that at times, owing to the disturbances through the colon area, there are those seasons where the body has a feeling of languidness, then the tendency for the contraction or pains through small of the back, tiredness in the feet, a droopy “down” feeling through the abdominal area; not wholly sick but a grumbling, mean headache, and the body at times feels rather antagonistic.

  5. These are toxic forces, but arise from the tendency for a prolapsus and a dilation in the colon area.

  6. Also we find the inclination from these accumulations of poisons for the tendencies towards a sluggishness in the activities of the system to eliminate the creation of too great quantities of sugar in the system.

  7. These are indicated from the activity of the kidneys, as well as the activities of the pancreas and spleen.

  8. These we find the sources of the disturbances with the body.

  9. The effect upon the nervous system is part of the disturbance, or the seat or source of same.

  10. Hence as we find, this must be taken into consideration in making applications for the helpful effects for the body itself.

  11. As to the activity of same upon the organs, these - as we have indicated - show a strain rather than any organic condition; though these with the functional disturbance may eventually become organic unless measures are taken to correct the conditions in the present.

  12. And the indigency of the system itself, or the activity of the glandular system as related to the reproductive forces of the body is slow; thus becoming as it were stalemate in activity with the rest of the system.

  13. This produces a strain that unless removed may bring about conditions in the glands as RELATED to same, as to give a good deal of disturbance.

  14. As we would find in the present:

  15. First we would begin with taking systematically - at least once or twice a week - hydrotherapy treatments; including - at least once every two weeks - high colonic irrigations with the hydrotherapy treatments. Also with the treatment there would be a steam bath, a thorough rubdown, and a good Swedish massage and adjustments along the cerebrospinal system.

  16. Also we would include precautions as to the diet. These we would keep away from: Beware of too highly stimulating foods, as too much of condiments. No fried foods of any kind. And too great quantities of starches should be eliminated.

  17. We would also use each day for three-week periods the Radio-Active Appliance. Make the attachments on the extremities and circulate same about the body; that is, begin first with the right wrist and left ankle, then the left wrist and right ankle, then the left ankle and right wrist, then the right ankle and left wrist, etc. Continue circulating about the body in that way and manner. Keep the anodes clean. Make these attachments for at least thirty minutes to an hour each day for three weeks, then leave off for a week or ten days, then repeat same.

  18. Also we would keep up the hydrotherapy treatments and the massage and the cleansing of the system for at least six to ten weeks; and we would find a great deal of help for this body, not only an improvement in the circulation, in the activity, but the outlook upon the affairs or the life and associations much improved.

  19. Do that.

  20. Ready for questions.

  21. (Q) By following these suggestions, can I build up my health so as to look after my business properly? (A) There’s no reason why the body shouldn’t, if these are carried out thoroughly, consistently and persistently. Because of feeling a little better, don’t change off from those things indicated here as better for the body!

  22. We are through with this Reading.
