1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. We have had this before, you see. Now, the body through the physical forces is a great deal better than when we last had it, yet there are physical conditions existing in the body at present that are abnormal to the body. Most of the conditions either physical, mental or spiritual that are abnormal at the present time have to do with the spiritual and soul forces, for the physical condition is subjugated to the psychical or spirit and mental forces of the body, and these produce the abnormal conditions as exist in the body at the present time. The congestion as we have through the nerves that govern the expression of vibration to the brain force, from or through the pneumogastric is at the present time surcharged with suggestion, when the body is in its wakening or normal state. In its present condition, now you see, it is amenable to the suggestion that the body will be normal, and through the physical manifestations of all of the elemental forces is at the present time, and under the present conditions, perfectly normal in all its functioning in every manner, see?
2. (Q) Mr. Cayce, what will relieve this body's headaches and what causes it? (A) Suggestion to remove those conditions that produce the headaches will relieve the condition in the body, "that the circulation be so equalized as to remove any strain on any portion of the body or not to overtax the nervous system in any manner or form". The congestion produces the headaches to this body by being overtaxed through suggestion in the normal state, not in the spiritual or soul state. The overtaxation comes to the body in the normal and affects the action of the forces that have to do with the psychical, spiritual or soul forces of this body, see?
3. (Q) Mr. Cayce, would fresh air and exercises be good for this body? (A) Exercise of the physical would be good for the body to keep or prevent the conditions. Follow as we have given with those suggestions as given, see.
4. (Q) Mr. Cayce, what do you mean by suggestion and who should do this?

(A) All force controlling any individual body, this body, [294], we are speaking of, above other normal bodies, is reached to all the forces of the physical, soul or spiritual forces by suggestion, see. Suggestion we mean, say a thing is black, it is black, say a thing is white, it is white, say a thing is wet, it is wet, etc. to reach the suggestion to this body is to reach the body through the suggestions as has been outlined here: "The body will become normal when in its wakening state, the circulation will so be equalized as to remove all strain from any and every portion of the body", see. You say "you are not going to have any headache", and you wake up, you don't mean anything.
