1. GC: 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; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2758].
3. As we find, there is much in many ways very good regarding the physical forces of this body.
4. Yet there are disturbances of such a nature as to cause a great deal of anxiety and trouble to the body from time to time; producing a high nervous tension through the physical forces of the body, and gradually becoming something that may be hard to be reckoned with.
5. This as we find may be aided, however, and a relief brought to the body.
6. These conditions arise from a pathological effect; produced from a PHYSICAL AND psychological condition.
7. In the present these are the conditions to be met:
8. In some times back - several years ago - there were periods when, from cold and congestion, and the use of an antiseptic douche, a form of neuralgial condition existed through the pelvic organs. With the formation of cold, there was an accumulation in the lymph circulation that formed an adhesion; and thus eventually produced a layer of scar tissue.
9. This, through those periods when there has been the activity of the kundaline forces of the mental and spiritual body, produces an effect of a pathological nature; because of the expanding influence produced through the glands AND the activities of the Lydigian forces in the system.
10. These were sources of that now producing periods when this heaviness, this bearing down pain comes at times in the left side of the abdominal area. This at times is above the point of the hip bone and at others is about lateral with same or below.

11. This irritation gradually causes periods when there is a disturbance to the rest, or the recuperative forces of the body. And the activities of the general nervous system produce that anxiety which arises through the natural temperament of the body to the high nervous irritability at periods; sympathetically then affecting the eliminations, especially in the activity of the kidneys, giving at times the fullness to the lymph pockets under the eyes, in the headaches of a nature that cause at times some nausea, and the general conditions that arise in irregularity to the pulse under these disturbances.
12. As we find, in making administrations:
13. First, the spiritual and mental attitude of the body, - we would advise that for the time being the self should not let self be used for those experimentations into the psychic forces, until the pathological conditions have been altered.
14. DO have a series of at least some twelve to fifteen osteopathic adjustments, to stimulate a better flow of nerve and blood supply through the pelvic area; stimulating especially through the coccyx and the whole of the lumbar and sacral areas, particularly the sacral-ileac plexus, also the lower portion of the 9th dorsal center and throughout the first and 2nd dorsal AND cervicals.
15. Preferably have these treatments twice a week for at least four or five, then rest from them a week, and then continue again for another six weeks.
16. At least three times each week (and this may be done by self), massage the abdominal area gently with Peanut Oil - to four ounces of which would be added one-half dram of Oil of Lanolin (melted - or dissolved and then added to the Peanut Oil). Pour a quantity of this mixture into an open saucer, dip the tips of fingers in same and massage gently; first with the body standing. Then, after this has been absorbed by the body, lie down, and then gently - for some five to ten minutes - massage the abdominal area, gently, with this combination - from especially the left side of the navel plexus center, extending to the lower portion of the rib - from the lower portion of the rib to the pubic center.
17. These should not only give relief but should correct the many disturbances through the system.
18. In the diets - be sure there is plenty of those vegetables of the tuberous nature; carrots, beets, radishes and the like - some of these should be a part of the diet each day. Two of these are purifiers (the beets and radishes), while the other (the carrots) adds to the activities between the coordinating of the kidneys with the circulation especially to the face and the eyes and the
2758-1 Page 3
activities of the body.
19. When the beets are prepared, these cook - but eat the tops also. There is more value for corrective forces in the tops, if they are not old or dried, than there is in the beet itself - and yet this IS a purifier and a healer to the system.
20. Ready for questions.
21. We are through with this reading. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file
