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. As we find, from long standing conditions the body is itself's own enemy. These are conditions where lack of control of the emotions, and the activity of organs through the body by those drainages from the system of the vitality that goes to make for regeneration and the activity in the body, has gradually brought on a complication of disorders through the mental reactions and the physical conditions.
3. Weakness in the general vitality of the body, lack of stability in the purposes or desires of the body; all of these become a part of the general conditions.
4. As we find, first there must be, if there would be helpful forces for this body, the changes of the mental attitude toward self, toward general surroundings. There must be the holding to some general creative energies, for the body will gain much more by trying and in helping someone else, rather than pitying or excusing or condemning things in others.
5. That should be the first general change, or attitude of the body, if there would be any permanent help.
6. For those disturbances in self which cause drainages must be eliminated by trying to do something, either mentally or physically, for someone else.
7. Then, we would commence with the deep therapy treatments given with the deep therapy electrical machines. These should be those that control the activities through the solar plexus, as well as the general reactions through the body. We would have these treatments about once a week, while twice a week we would have osteopathic treatments.
8. As to diet: We would have more raw vegetables, as well

as a very mild meat; such as fish, fowl and lamb, and none of them fried; rather broiled, baked or the like would be better way of preparation.
9. If these suggestions are kept up, we will find there will soon grow sufficient strength for the body not to remain in bed through necessity, but will have strength and may be in the open air and active with its hands and mind toward some creative activity.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) What is the cause of my mental fear, and how may I overcome it? (A) As has been indicated, the draining of drosses in the system from self-indulgence, and if there is the replacing of such with study, and the applying of self in the physical and mental towards helping others, we can dismiss this fear and tension in body and build up through the activities as have been given.
12. We are through with this body. Two copies to Self (one for the osteopath, who also may give the electrical treatments - Please let us have the name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass'n file
