1. HLC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2441].
3. As we find, conditions are very good in the physical forces of the body. There ARE tendencies and inclinations, but we find that if precautions are taken and these general tendencies are taken into consideration, there may be brought a much better general attitude - And thus change much that has disturbed the body at times.
4. In giving the analysis of the conditions here, we find that the psychological as well as the pathological effect must be taken into consideration.
5. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2441] we are speaking of:
6. There is a very good blood supply. We find those tendencies towards the lacking of the form in the blood supply which produces the plasm of coagulation. Thus, at times there are the tendencies for an irritation in portions of the body. These as experienced by the body OFTEN are soon changed by the body MAKING the application for CHANGING the general thought or attitude towards same.
7. This, then, indicates that some GLANDULAR disturbance in this direction is apparent in the system.
8. We find that the nervous system is very good, yet the body at times - with its mental efficiency - finds it necessary to produce, or to maintain, a routine in its general activity and its general reaction. Thus, as indicated, the pathological effects are caused, or changed, by the psychological, or the MENTAL processes of the individual entity.

9. At periods there has been a tendency in the lacteal duct area for there to be adhesions; or not adhesions so much as an altering in the plastic reaction in the area from which the assimilated or digested foods pass INTO the jejunum.
10. Hence there have been periods when there was not a pain, but an awareness of the conditions in those areas between the gall duct center - on the right side, and the caecum on the right side also, see?
11. With the unconsciousness, these have at times, as in rest, produced a spasmodic reaction between the sympathetic nerve centers AND the cerebrospinal.
12. Then, these are NOT seizures; neither are they of any type or form of what may be called "fit" or spasmodic reaction. It is rather the plastic reaction in that area causing this disturbance.
13. Yet with the normal physical consciousness, and the abilities indicated by the body to CONTROL the mental, these pass away.
14. The SOURCES, as indicated, are in the glandular system as related to the activity of the lacteals in their relationship to assimilation. And these at times react with the glands of reproduction in the genital organs of the body; producing a reaction through same that at times disturbs the body-mental.
15. As to the organs of the body, then - we find that brain reflexes with the nervous system are good.
16. The activities of the organs of the sensory system, nominally, are good.
17. Throat, bronchi, lungs, larynx - these show some minor congestion at times, and the tendency for the body, with the nerve flexes, not to stammer or stutter but to stop and to DIRECT its choice of activity of the vocal reactions in the body.
18. The digestive disturbances, as indicated, only arise from the normal changes produced by the varied activities of the assimilating system.
19. The sources or causes of the glandular reaction in the lacteals are from a pressure produced there during those periods when there was the care for the umbilical cord or center, by too great a pressure, and a cold or congestion that once caused some inflammation, during those first ten to fifteen days of the body-physical development.
20. And it will be found that this occurred during the first ten to fifteen days of the body's activity in THIS experience.
21. This is not a prenatal condition, then; it is not that as may be carried or given to others, or that would cause
2441-1 Page 3
any mental or physical deficiency in offspring; but we find that the body itself would be materially aided BY such activities through the system.
22. Hence the need is only to be rid of fear itself. For, fear - to be sure - reacts upon this body in those ways as indicated, to produce pathological - from psychological - reactions.
23. In making application of those things as we find that would be beneficial for this body:
24. We would use an exercise that would make for the stretching of the abdominal muscles; (though not so severe as to make for a straining), especially in the right side. This will also make for better conditions through the pelvic and hip areas. Take this night and morning, in the beginning only about two or three circles or movements. Place the feet against the wall, or the like, with the body lying face down, you see. Raise upon the hands, maintaining the balance by the feet being braced against the wall, and circle the hip and torso; first to the right, then to the left.
25. Afterwards massage thoroughly into that area from the lower portion of the rib, especially on the right side, to the lower portion of the caecum, Pure Peanut Oil; just what the body will absorb. Sponge off, not with water but with a dry cloth.
26. In the diet - have more of those foods that carry B-1 vitamins - these with A, D and G, will be the beneficial effects for the body.
27. Keep these up for at least three weeks, then leave off a week - then do them again; continuing in this manner for several months.
28. And with the maintaining of that attitude, that full consciousness of the Creative Forces working in and through thee, we will find that there will be brought into the experience of self, and others, the fulfilling of that for which the entity has entered this present experience; bringing better physical and mental attitudes, and a near NORMAL physical body.
29. Ready for questions.
30. (Q) Would having a child endanger the child with a tendency to these same attacks? (A) As just indicated, it is not of the nature that would be transmitted to an offspring. This would be rather HELPFUL to this body, see?
31. (Q) Should I wait until after the treatments are taken to have the child? (A) To be sure! You would have to, anyway!
