This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the home of David E. Kahn, 20 Woods Lane, Scarsdale, N.Y., this 30th day of November, 1940, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [2090], through Mr. [437], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Hugh Lynn Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mr. [437] and Mr. [257].]

Time of Reading 11:05 to 11:20 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City.

  1. HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for corrective measures; going over the body carefully, examining it thoroughly, answering the questions, as I ask them:

  2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2090]; this we have had before.

  3. As we find, most of the changes have been toward helpfulness for the body.

  4. There ARE specific conditions, we find, causing those conditions that become aggravating, though, at times.

  5. These we find in the present:

  6. In the area between the 2nd and 3rd dorsal there is a lesion, upon the left area here, that produces deflection in the circulation of the lymph to the mucous membranes of throat and head, nasal passages. This deflection causes the irritations and the overflow of the lymph. This in return at times causes through the membranes of throat that irritation, and through the digestive system at times an upsetting of the activities there; that causes anxieties and irritation.

  7. WE would, in the present, first give that there be had some three to six specific osteopathic adjustments in this area; coordinating the upper cervicals with the adjustments.

  8. Then, - as an antiseptic, which will allay the condition, as well as relieve the tensions (when the osteopathic corrections are made) that produce irritation in the nasal passages and throat, - we would prepare a compound from which there would be inhaled the fumes. Have this prepared in a container - an eight ounce container - in which two vents may be put in the cork of the container, neither of which should extend into the solution.

  9. To 4 ounces of pure Grain Alcohol (at least 90% to 100% proof), add - IN THE ORDER NAMED:

Oil of Eucalyptus…20 minims, Rectified Oil of Turp…5 minims, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…20 minims, Tolu in Solution…15 minims.

Keep the vents closed or tightly corked except when in use. Then, shaking the solution well, remove both small corks and inhale through the longer vent, first through one side of the nasal passage, then the other; also into the throat and lungs, - inhaling the fumes that arise from the solution being shaken, you see; shaking the solution each time before using. It is not to be used as a spray, you see, but only as an inhalant; inhaling the fumes that rise through this evaporation.

  1. These as we find, with the osteopathic corrections indicated, will bring the bettered conditions for this body.

  2. As to the matters of the diet, - the body should refrain from pastries or from much of sweets. Rather have at least one whole meal each day of raw, fresh vegetables; or else some of these at two meals each day; such as: carrots, celery, lettuce and the like. Have more of a vegetable diet, with vegetables well cooked, of all natures, and the raw salads. These we would keep as the principal diet until there is at least relief from this pressure and irritation.

  3. To be sure, this does not mean that the body is to eat ONLY these; but in general let these be considered mostly in the diet for the next two or three weeks, particularly.

  4. Doing these, we will find we will bring the better conditions for this body.

  5. Ready for questions.

  6. (Q) Is the preparation which I hold in my hand [given for Mr. [257]] the proper mixture for the inhalant as recommended for the body? (A) This is proper for the conditions for which it was recommended, but for THIS body, [2090], it is not in the proportions nor prepared in the ORDER to fit these specific conditions.

DO as we have indicated here, for the better conditions of this body.

  1. (Q) What is the best weight for the body? (A) When there is the better health (for EACH body, and this body), the weight should be the NATURAL development and not the attempts - unless for specific reasons - to maintain this or that weight, see?

  2. (Q) What type of exercise is best for the body? (A) Walking is the best exercise. Bicycling, - either stationary or in the open, - is well. These are the better types of exercise. The open air activity is better.

  3. (Q) In what way can this mental body function to carry out the plans she has for helping Mr. [437] in The American Way? (A) As we find, the plans that have been and are being developed - through the varied associations and connections, as well as the abilities of the entity in the suggestions as to contacts and also script - are the better means, through the MENTAL forces, of helping in such an undertaking.

  4. (Q) Is there any other guidance or advice for the body at this time? (A) Keep the mental attitude ever in that way of being constructive or creative. Rather than the personality, manifest more the INDIVIDUALITY in every way.

  5. We are through for the present.
