[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mr. [304], Mr. [348] and Mrs. [340].]
Time of Reading 11:55 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Va. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: We have the body here - this we have had before. Now, we find an exaggeration in the congestion through the bronchi and larynx, and the effects to the upper portion of lungs themselves, producing in the blood supply that of the lack of vital forces to bring recuperation to the system, with the tendency for congestion to increase through the easily taking on cold - see?
-
Now, we would add to those things as are being taken, those of the Animated or activated Ash, one-eighth grain taken about a half to three-quarters of an hour before the ultra-violet light is given. Do not give the light too strong, nor too close to the body, and the body should NOT be RECLINING when given; RATHER that of the erect position, and this we would apply to the CEREBRO-SPINAL rather than to the chest - see? This will allow the activity of more oxygen in the system - see?
-
We would also keep those of the calcium and iodine, or Calcidin, taking about three to four one-half or grain tablets each day.
-
We would also be mindful that the diet is blood and nerve building.
-
We would keep those of the expectorant in the cough syrups [horehound, etc., as in 304-19] or medicines as given.
-
A little stimuli two or three times each day of the spirits frumenti will be helpful for the body. This should be in VERY SMALL quantities, that will act with the mucous- producing forces of the system, as a stimuli rather than acting with the gastric juices of the stomach or digestive system proper - see?
-
Do that. Ready for questions.
-
(Q) Should he take the physical culture exercises morning and evening? (A) This is rather heavy for the body, under the present conditions. Let’s get more oxygen acting in the system, THEN this may be taken better. Be mindful that the eliminations are kept up, see?
-
(Q) How often should the Ash and the ultra-violet be taken? (A) Be well were they given each day, as the body is ready to retire.
-
(Q) Should he have manipulation along the dorsal and cervical region now? (A) WE would not, unless it was to simply RAISE the rib, or the pressure, to allow the lung to react; and this, as we find, if the treatments are given with the body erect, and a VIBRATOR used along the dorsal and the upper dorsal and cervical, will be better than manipulation!
-
That is all the questions.
-
We are through with this reading.
