Edgar Cayce Readings, 92-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: We have the body here, [92]. Now, we find there are those conditions that are abnormal with the body, and these may be corrected as to bring about a nearer normal functioning for the physical forces of the body. These conditions, while they may be termed rather that of a general, or a changeable, or conditions that have become chronic; these are NOT in the proper sense CHRONIC, though the cause or the seat of the trouble has been of such duration as to be seen now in many FORMS throughout the system, produced much by the administration for EFFECTS produced, rather than for the condition producing same.
These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [92] we are speaking of:
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, the condition as is the cause may be best outlined, on account of the nature of the condition and the effects as has been produced, and as are being produced, in various portions of the system. An impoverished blood supply in a sense, yet FULL in other particulars, especially as to pressure and pulmonary - which would have more to do with the heart, though the blood in its pulsation and its condition causes much of that condition with the heart; so NOT organic heart trouble - eliminate that first!
IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, many portions of this, especially those as have to do with the secondary cardiac plexus and the 4th lumbar plexus, are effects of an existent condition. The existent condition, then, that has brought this about, is cold, congestion, that found in the lymph and in the blood supply - with a liver poor in activity, not eliminating it from the system. Hence the condition became that as is known as a congestion, that causes various portions of the body to become clogged or congested. A catarrhal condition - moveable, or moving about and attacking various portions of the system. Catarrh, then, is the seat or cause. In itself not a germ disease, though PRODUCED by the ACTIVITY of germs WITHIN the system, and - as may be termed - IS the refuse of those germs in their ABNORMAL correlation with that to be brought about in the system by their activity, which is as a plasm cell existent between lymphatic circulation and that of the arterial circulation, and the venous effect upon arterial circulation. Hence we may have catarrh of the head, of the throat, of the stomach, of the intestines, or it may become so distributed as to become known as other names in the effect produced upon the joint, or the sinew, or the muscle, or of tissue in various portions of the system; or it may act directly on the functioning of organs, depending upon that which is applied for its eradication; coming then to produce as the congested liver, or a heart action, high or low in blood pressure (in this a subnormal); or it may act direct with the lung or the pulmonary forces of the system. HERE we find it more active IN the action of the lymph with the LYMPHATIC circulation being depressed by same. Hence we have a low or cold hepatic, a high pulmonary, and a distressed condition - which produces abnormalities in various portions of the system; affecting most the sinew or the muscular retraction in body.
These, then, are the conditions as we find with this body, with the variations as are seen with functioning of various organs and with the system itself.
To meet the needs of these conditions at the present time, these - then - are those things as we would find would be necessary to combat the condition, or to bring about a normal force; though, as will be seen, these are only BASIS upon which there may be builded that in the system sufficient to meet resistances and to build up sufficient reserve supply in energy within the system to meet the needs of bringing about a normal condition.
First we would add those vibrations for the blood supply as would be found in the Radium Appliance, using the Double X Pad, using same across the 9th and 10th dorsal; and across the head, eyes and neck at least three minutes each day; (worn at least eight hours across the spine each day) recharging same a few minutes in the strong light each day.
Also we would take these as medicinal properties at the same time this is being used; (that is, the medicinal properties to be taken only twice each day, but the treatments are to be compatible, or in accord with each other) take distilled water 8 ounces and add:
Reduce by simmering to 1/2 the quantity. Strain, and while warm add 1 ounce of grain alcohol, with 1 dram of Balsam of Tolu cut in same. Add to the alcohol and Tolu before adding to the other solution, 20 minims of Tincture of Stillingia and 5 minims Tincture of Capsici.
The dose will be teaspoonful twice each day, taken at 9 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon; (or, if NECESSARY for quietness taken more in the evening or night).
Also we would be careful of the diet. Do not eat meat other than that of mutton, or goat, or kid. This may be taken in SMALL quantities. No other meat or flesh would we take. Let the diet be more of vegetables that grow ABOVE the ground. None that grow below the ground. Fruits - all of these may be taken in moderation. Drink PLENTY of water. Make it obligatory for self to see that at least two to three GLASSES of water are drank between each meal - not AT meals. Not much coffee or tea. Milk may be taken in moderation. COFFEE not more than once each day.
Do that. When this has been followed for thirty days, we would give the corrections necessary then for further improvement. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

Her husband [90] had two readings in 1926.
11/15/28 Nephew [900]'s letter: "In line with our phone conversation, I submit the following address of [92], my aunt who desires a physical reading... I am sure she as well as I will appreciate this help."
