Time of Reading 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. ..., Ohio. (Physical Suggestion)
1. EC: Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before.
2. Changes, as we find, are evidenced in the conditions through the system.
3. While there is much yet to be desired, in making for the proper coordinations through the activities of the system - and between the sensory reactions and the impulses through the cerebrospinal system, we find that with these changes other conditions arise that apparently become greater disturbing factors in some directions.
4. But if there will be continued the carrying on of those suggestions, and the addition of other things to meet the conditions as arise, we would find continued improvement.
5. Continue, then, with the use of the Packs.
6. We would continue with the use of the manipulative and corrective forces that have been suggested.
7. In fact, we would continue with ALL of those things that have been indicated.
8. For the insomnia, or the tendency for the restlessness, use the Radio-Active Appliance at least an hour each day, or oftener.
9. Make for those activities in the physical body such that not only the MIND is kept busy but that the body is required to be centralized. That is, make for such activities that the physical body as well as the mental body is interested or centralized or employed in same. These should be more or less of a manual nature, as to produce in the activities a reaction through the respiratory system; or such exercise as to obtain a SWEAT or an activity through the respiratory system - even though it requires a gymnasium exercise; but preferably those things which require the mind as well as the body activity.
10. For those conditions that become disturbing at times, which make for the losses, or that show a reaction through the genitive system (and these, as we find, are the natural results or effects of the changes taking place) (hence the
1025-3 Page 2
necessity for a mental and a physical reaction that the energies and the strength of the body may be utilized), we would - when these become the more disturbing - use a compound prepared in this manner:
11. To 1 ounce of Elixir of Lactated Pepsin, add - in the order named: Compound Simple Syrup...........1 ounce, Saltpetre, well dissolved......10 grains, Syrup of Rhubarb..............1/2 ounce, Tincture of Stillingia........1/2 ounce. Shake the solution well before taking. The dose would be a teaspoonful just before retiring. But do not take same unless there becomes more and more a disturbing factor in this direction. But when necessary, these properties may be used to allay; and yet to act upon the system in aiding a release through the lacteals and those portions of the system where the disturbing conditions have caused and do cause distresses through the alimentary canal.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) What may be done to quiet the nervous system? (A) As indicated. Follow up those suggestions in not only the manipulative measures, but the use of the Radio-Active Appliance.
14. (Q) This will also enable the body to sleep? (A) As indicated, it is for the restlessness and insomnia.
15. (Q) Please explain why the attacks come on always from a slight shock of some kind; as unexpected noise, stumbling, etc.? (A) As indicated, there is a breaking; or a non-coordination between the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal systems. And it is almost the same effect of a shock, of an excitement, that would be produced in a wire that is partially broken; when set in a certain way the current passes through, but a turning of same causes sparks or a disconnection and a reaction that makes for a flashing. So with the nervous system. Hence the continued use of all those things as indicated, that will enable the body to make for the more perfect coordination between the cerebrospinal and the sympathetic nervous systems - and especially in relationship to those centers and ganglia where there are the particular clogging conditions between the nervous systems in the lumbar and the dorsal areas.
