Time of Reading 3:25 to 3:45 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Virginia. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1016].
2. Now, as we find, conditions are very good in many respects; yet there are those tendencies and inclinations the correction of which in the present will not only alleviate an uneasiness that exists but will prevent disturbances and disorders that might arise in the physical forces of the body from existent conditions.
3. These, as we find, have to do primarily with the eliminations of the body and with the slowing of the circulatory system through the clogging that is produced in some portions of the body - as will be seen.
4. Then, these are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1016] we are speaking of, present in this room:
5. We find the BLOOD SUPPLY slowed at times, especially in the circulatory forces as related to extremities and as to portions of the system where subluxations disturb the body; as in the correlation with the activities of the sympathetic nerve forces of the body, with the organs of the sensory system, as well as those relating to the general conditions of the body.
6. In this slowing of the circulation pressures are produced to the head, in the activity of the organs through the pelvic regions and those activities through the sensory forces to ear, the throat, to the eyes, to the vocal forces themselves.
7. These, then, are inclinations, tendencies, produced by pressures in portions of the body itself.
8. The NERVE FORCES of the body are very good save at periods when there are those activities that arise from repressions that have existed in the body, when the reactions to the sensory forces and to the sympathetics are - as it were - the "jitters"; producing at times insomnia, restlessness, conditions that make to the nervous force an exaggeration of activities from the exterior as well as from
1016-1 Page 2
internally. These are the effects of those centers and their reaction that make for association between the sympathetic and cerebrospinal system; specifically in the locomotory centers that become aggravated by the slowing of the circulation to extremities.
9. These react to the activities of the digestive forces, and to the organs of the eliminations generally.
10. In these associations we have disturbances that make for periods when there is a NERVOUS indigestion, or the lack of the desire for food; then at others so little will satisfy; others it appears that ANYTHING taken disagrees for the time. This is a nervous reaction.
11. As to the ORGANS of the body, we find:
12. Brain forces are very good.
13. Organs of the sensory forces, as we have indicated, are under suppressions; but will be clarified a great deal by the creating of a normal balance through the circulatory forces of the body, eliminating much of those disturbances to their activity and producing a near normal reaction.
14. The throat, bronchi, lungs and larynx - these are very good save, as indicated, those conditions in the vocal passage or the vocal box as related to the activities of the GLANDS themselves in the throat. And these make for a slow circulation, thus producing disturbances that cause a filling and a choking and a tendency for clearing the throat, a nervousness through the throat activity itself.
15. Lungs are good.
16. Heart's activity is only intermittent at times, owing to those disturbances in the circulatory forces of the body.
17. Digestive forces, save as indicated, are very good. But there are periods when superacidity arises from this nervous reaction as indicated, producing poor eliminations and causing a circulatory force through the hepatics that makes for pressures both to the kidneys and to the liver.
18. Hence we have through the activities of the kidneys and the liver at times a scant activity; this producing in the activity of these eliminations some toxic forces that add to the repression and produce in the extremities - through the slowed circulation - repressions or pains or contraction of the muscular forces in the form of a rheumatic condition, more than a tendency for other conditions.
19. So the solvent to these, and those activities to produce a more perfect coordination in the hepatic circulation, will also clarify these conditions in the present.
20. Then, making for an activity through the alimentary canal, clarifying the blood stream and equalizing the circulatory forces, we may bring the body to the near normal
1016-1 Page 3
conditions.
21. In making applications for this, then, we would first begin with taking the Alcaroid in periods of two or three days at a time, following preferably the heavier meal - or evening meal. Take a quarter teaspoonful in a FULL glass of water.
22. This is to reduce the acidity and to make for the more perfect eliminations; PURIFYING, as it were, with the activity of the hepatics, a better coordination in activity; increasing (as it will) the flow of gastric juices to the lower portion of the duodenum, making for those reactions that produce a better activity through the kidneys, the bladder, and a purifying of the system.
23. These properties would be taken for three to four days, then have a rest period from same for a week or two weeks, and then take again.
24. At the beginning of the SECOND three-day period of taking the Alcaroid, we would begin with the use of the Radio-Active Appliance, that would make for an equalizing of the circulatory forces through the body.
25. This should be applied each evening just before retiring, preferably as the body rests lying prone, for a period of thirty to sixty minutes. This would make for a better equalization. We find it would be preferable to use this each evening for periods of three weeks, and a rest period from same for a week, and then taken again for three or four weeks again, and then a rest, and then taken again. See?
26. Also we find that the use of the electrically driven vibrator over the cerebrospinal system, especially across the diaphragm area and over the whole of the cerebrospinal system, will relax the body more perfectly; making for an equalizing - with the properties taken internally and the Radio-Active Appliance.
27. These we would do, and we will bring the near normal forces for this body.
28. Ready for questions.
29. (Q) What has caused pain in lower right side? (A) Those accumulations from the inactivity of the eliminations, and hence the engorgements in the caecum area. With the taking of the Alcaroid properties as indicated, that will make for a greater activity through the alimentary canal, we will overcome these conditions. And especially with the use, as indicated, of the electrically driven vibrator that would be used over the diaphragm, the caecum, the cerebrospinal system; stimulating in the lower dorsal and especially the 4th and 5th dorsal centers.
1016-1 Page 4
30. (Q) What causes soreness and aching in spine and body? (A) As indicated, the accumulations of poisons from the lack of the eliminations through the activity of the hepatic circulation; or uremic poisoning, that - through the slowing of activity thought the kidneys, through the slowing circulation - tends to leave the poisons in the system.
31. (Q) Is milk a suitable article of diet for me? (A) As we find, the Dried Milk or Malted Milk would be more preferable than the Raw Milk. Or even the Raw Milk heated would be better. But we find that the milk PREPARATIONS will be more preferable for the body.
32. (Q) Any other advice as to diet? (A) As indicated for the slowed circulation, and the tendencies at times for the acidity, those things that pertain more to the alkalin-reacting diet would be the better. Rather would we give those things that the body should be warned against, and then most everything else may be taken - if it is taken in moderation, and WHEN there is the DESIRE! As there is the desire for food, whether it is the regular meal time or at others, it would be best for THIS body to eat! If it desires to eat this or that, eat it! but do not mix it with other foods! Beware of hog meats, though, in every form - save a little crisp bacon may be taken at times. Beware of roast beef that is rare, or the fats of same. Beware of shell fish, though oysters may be taken - but not crabs nor shrimp nor any of those natures that make for a HUMOR that works with the activity of a disturbed condition in the hepatic circulation. Beware of certain food values in combination, as rice and corn at the same meal, or a great quantity of potatoes taken at the same time with white bread. Do not include too much of these, or scarcely any of these, in the diet. And we will find conditions will be improved.
33. (Q) Would it be injurious for me to take setting-up exercises? (A) Would be helpful to the body, AFTER there has been begun the equalizing of the circulation.
34. (Q) What can be done to build up broken down tissues in left side of face? (A) A massage with the electrically driven vibrator, followed immediately with a compound massaged through the neck, the side of the face, through the eyes, the temple, and along the vagus centers right at the entrance of the gullet, or at the entrance of the shoulder blade, or corner of the shoulder blade with the breast bone on either side. Such a compound for massaging would be prepared in this manner:
1016-1 Page 5
To 1 tablespoonful of melted Cocoa Butter, add - while it is in the liquid: Rose Water.......................1 tablespoonful, Compound Tincture of Benzoin.....1 tablespoonful. Keep this to massage these tissues. The activity of these ingredients will be to ENLIVEN and to make for - Well, this would be a very, very good skin cleanser and skin builder for anyone! Do these. At the period of taking the Radio-Active Appliance, we would keep the constructive attitude - or meditate, building toward the coordination of the vibratory forces from the energies of the cosmic forces to the active forces of the mental and spiritual body. This will AID materially when such applications are taken. For the vibrations created by the use of the Appliance are the natural forces with the activities of the system itself being attuned to those actions from without, bringing to the body the better vibrations. Thus we create an equalized circulation, and - with the addition of the other properties in their proper ratio and form as indicated - bring UNIFORMITY to the activity of organs and glands and the eliminations of the body, which makes for normalcy in health.
