Time of Reading 12:20 to 12:35 Noon - Eastern Standard Time. New York City.
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she submits, as I ask them. You will please give instructions as to the proper procedure for further improvement, and a complete recovery of health and vitality.
2. EC: Yes.
3. Now as we find, conditions show an improvement; though there are periods of disturbance - when there is the dissipation of the congested area in and through the kidneys, or any undue activity.
4. Yet such dissipations are decreasing the congestion.
5. And while we would have periods of rest, we would continue to have those periods of treatment and the application of those things suggested through those activities as we have indicated for the body.
6. There should be less of inclinations for the body to so act towards food, drink OR activity of any nature as to cause greater disturbance to the system; as getting too cold or too hot, or the feet becoming damp, or the head and neck and shoulders under draft, or overindulgence in food of the nature that is a reactory influence upon the lower hepatic circulation.
7. If these are kept in that order and directions, we will find the improvements continuing.
8. The applications would not be too much of the CORRECTIVE nature - that is, adjustment treatments - but gentle massage following the nerves from their impulse center TO portions of the body where they are distributed into the connection with the superficial circulation. These will be the better; and with the electrical forces of the low vibration that bring about the attunement of the coordination between cerebrospinal and the vegetative or sympathetic system impulses.
9. These are the better activities for the body.

10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) How often should the massage be given? (A) This has been indicated - that there should be three to four weeks and a rest period of ten days to two weeks; then we would continue
12. (Q) How often the electrotherapy? (A) As has been indicated heretofore for the body.
13. (Q) What is the cause of my continued nausea and how can it be relieved? (A) As has just been indicated, when there is the dissipation of the congested areas, and there is not sufficient coordination in the eliminating system, it reacts to the assimilating system; thus causing nausea. It is a reactionary condition, and may be expected until there is sufficient of the congestion removed, or sufficient associations of vibratory forces built up within the system to prevent same.
14. (Q) Why don't I have the same degree of spiritual exaltation in my new apartment that I had while living at the Hotel ...? How can I recapture that inner radiance? (A) Variations in the vibratory influences about the body. Let there be held by those with whom and in whom the body feels those associations that make for the awareness of the high vibratory influences, and we may dispel those that have existed here.
15. (Q) Would it be advisable to have the electrotherapy daily as Dr. Miller advises? (A) When the massage is given, the electrotherapy may be given. If the massage is given daily for a period, very well. If not, no.
16. (Q) Will the New Year unfold greater opportunities for my professional advancement and my greater service to my fellow man? (A) These are part of self's own development and must rise within by taking advantage of those opportunities which are offered from day to day. As has so oft been indicated, and this body will find same within its own experience, it is as we use that in hand that the greater opportunities are given.
17. (Q) How shall I proceed to secure the right opportunity for broadcasting my "Folk We Touch in Passing" program? (A) This may be through the meeting or contacting or giving of the activities in such a manner to interest those who are given to the expression of that which is the impelling influence in such a program.

Do not cast pearls before swine, or attempt to make for contacts or associations where there is not the feeling that there is the appreciation of that attempted - else we only create barriers that bring about disturbing forces. When each soul, each entity so lives in its own daily life that it is ready, it is willing to give of itself in service - without finding fault, without feeling there is the slight here or there - then the way is opened for such service. But as long as such barriers are builded, you create that which may not offer the same channel through which greater service may be rendered. REALIZE that we only sow the seed. God alone may give the increase. WAIT on the Lord - and this doesn't mean man-made lord!
