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, [5380].
3. In giving an interpretation of the disturbance as we find here, the mental attitude has as much to do with the physical reactions as illnesses in the body. For as we find, in the physical or purely pathological little disturbs the body, save sympathetically, but in the mental attitude there is so much of the making for the degrading of self that self-destruction becomes a part of the reaction, but it is wholly mental. And thus the nerve forces for the body, this body as any body, any individual, who makes destructive thought in the body, condemning self for this or that, will bring, unless there are proper reactions, dissociation or lack of coordination between sympathetic and cerebrospinal system, and it may develop any condition which may be purely physical by deterioration of mental processes and their effect upon organs of the body.
4. While there may be a great deal of help given, the greater portion must be done by self. There can be help through hydrotherapy, with osteopathic adjustments to correct the condition which exists in the brachial center, 9th dorsal, throughout the upper cervical areas, as to lessen the tension in the body. Hydrotherapy would consist of the fumes and the rubdowns with mild sweats taken by Fume Bath rather than heating the body, see? Use two teaspoonsful of witchhazel to a pint of water in producing the fumes. Then have the thorough rubdown, using Pine Oil, will be very well, or the combination of equal portions of Olive Oil and Peanut Oil.
5. Then the attitude of the body: Begin not as to become

just the opposite of what has been in the last two years, but read the 30th of Deuteronomy, especially those portions as to how that which the body would learn is within self. This applies physically as well as mentally, and then turn to the promises in the 14th, 15th, 16th, 17th of St. John and know thy redeemer liveth. He was tempted like as thee. He understands. He will forgive, and you will find there will come a relief to the body.
6. Then apply self in just being helpful, just being kind, just being patient, just being longsuffering with others, as ye would have thy Maker by with thee, and we will bring relief.
7. We are through with this reading.
