Time of Reading 10:30 to 11:30 A. M. Eastern War Time. ..., Alabama.
1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time with suggestions for further corrective measures, answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Sure is switching across the country.
*[EC sometimes gave as many as 8 or more readings in one day during 1943 - 1944. On the morning of this reading, between 10:30 - 11:30 Eastern War Time, he gave 4 Physical Readings and 1 Life Reading. The individuals for whom the Physical Readings were given were located in Texas, New York, Connecticut and Alabama. The reader can therefore imagine what it meant for EC to locate each one of those individuals during that hour. This could account for such a remark.]
3. Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before. Many changes have come about in the physical forces of this body since we had it here before. Some are very good, some of course, are changed entirely.
4. The loss of the vision in the eye is due to pressures in the sinus areas, which affected or caused the iritis, which caused the flowing of the fluid into the nerve tissue. This may not be changed, but if the general health of the body is kept well, there should not be, unless there is an injury to the head, the affecting of the other eye. For the strength, as for vision in the optic forces, is really improved in the left eye.
5. We would, then, be mindful in the activities of the body to keep eliminations first, for these at times are not good.
6. The tendencies for inflammation through face and head, from disorders long existent in the condition, need to be kept thrown off from the system by better eliminations. Occasionally have colonic irrigations and a gentle massage, but no electricity, save the very low forms of same, as might be used by the body, of the body-vibrations itself. For the using of the Radio-Active Appliance with the ice, and keeping plates very clean and using this regularly when

the body is tired, will bring rest and build energies for the body. The use of this should be, when it is used, a half hour to an hour. Use this as the body would rest, and use that same period for meditation or for reading or for analyzing, but not for analyzing business problems, nor as periods when you would argufy with anyone, but creative forces: as study of self, study of purposes, study of ideals. Reading of scripture or of your Sunday School lesson, then, when you study. Go to Sunday School.
7. Ready for questions.
8. (Q) Anything wrong with my physical condition otherwise? (A) As has been indicated, there needs to be kept better eliminations. These may be done by activities which have been indicated and in the diets being kept. Not too much of meat, but vegetables and especially raw vegetables and fruits.
9. We are through with this reading.
