Edgar Cayce Readings, 301-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here. Now, we find there are conditions of which the body should rather be warned, than of EXISTENT conditions other than that as would lead to disorder and disruption in the physical functioning of the body, unless altered or corrected. These have to do with some SPECIFIC conditions that are UNDER stress in the system, and of the conditions produced by the disturbance.
These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body, [301] we are speaking of, present in this room. First:
IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, here we find some evidences of the conditions as are produced by repressions, or by pressure in the system; so that in the matter of the functioning of the lacteals - where the change in the assimilations to that of the various characters of CIRCULATION, THESE are disturbed. Not, as YET, to the extend that there are unusual DISORDERS from same, but rather as the DISORDER is FROM the repression as exists in the 2nd LUMBAR plexus, FROM which the radial activity are to the functioning of the organs of the pelvis, as WELL as reflexly to those of the upper portion of the system, or that coordination as is made between the hypogastric and pneumogastric plexuses. These coming from those in the region of the lower portion of system, and those from the UPPER portion where the plexus from the 3rd and 4th cervical cause at times those depressions to the head, and the headache and the dullness as is felt in throat, and as is felt in the sensory system. These are as INDICATORS - and are a result, NOT a cause, of the condition. This produces, then, for the blood supply, the tendency for the system to create more of the white than of the red blood supply. Not that the functioning of the blood supply as related to the red blood is deficient; yet the very CHARACTERS of same produces for the system a tendency to INCREASE numbers IN the white blood, while the RED are deficient at times.
IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find some of those conditions as causes. These are NOT that there is an over activity in the nerve supply as for the body to become NERVOUS; yet the body at times feels as if shaky, unstrung. These are merely PASSING conditions at present, but with the pressure as exists in the lower portion of the cerebrospinal, or in the lower plexus - or flexor muscular forces of the solar plexus center, or that radiating from the 10th and 11th dorsal and that in the 2nd lumbar. These produce those repressions, or the lack of the full incentive to the system for the functioning NOMINALLY throughout its own forces as related to the eliminations from the system. So as, the repressions as may be produced from this condition may cause those functionings in the organs OF the pelvis themselves to become reactive and non-active as to those conditions as should be NOMINAL for the body.
In meeting, then, the needs of the conditions:
We would find that there SHOULD be those reliefs from pressures existent in the lumbar, sacral, dorsal AND cervical region. These may best be done by manipulations, so as to cause the COORDINATION throughout the system, and by ADJUSTMENTS to REMOVE the pressure. These, then, would be made at least ONCE each week, and the MANIPULATION every other day.
There should be mindful that the diets of the body are kept for a nerve AND blood building, and in that coordinating manner as to keep down acidity through the system.
Keep in the open air. Keep in the sunshine as much as may be possible, that the respiratory system - also the capillary and lymphatic circulation - may take on of the oxygens FOR the replenishing of the blood supply itself.
Ready for questions.
(Q) What is cause of pains in lower left part of chest?
(A) This produced by the lack of the activity of the blood supply through the pulmonary regions, and is a reflex condition.
(Q) Following the treatments given, will the pains from menses be relieved?
(A) This is as has been outlined here. Relieving of the pressure in this region will make an adjustment for the proper eliminations through these periods, and RELIEVING the pressure by that of the proper adjustments THROUGH the manipulation and THROUGH the ADJUSTMENTS made for the conditions, and for the organs of the pelvis.
This is all of the questions.
Do this, and we would find that the near normal physical conditions of this body will ensue; for the body in its MENTAL abilities has been much associated WITH those THROUGH whom the information comes, in its sojourn in the physical plane. The life forces have BEEN thrown MUCH together through their association and activity. [See her Life Rdg. 301-5 on 6/20/31.]

BACKGROUND

5/26/30 She sought advice for general debility [neurasthenia], dysmenorrhea, and sterility.

REPORTS

6/10/30 She obtained Ck. Physical 301-2. [See subsequent readings.]
5/03/33 EC's ltr. to Mrs. [2457]: "Some yrs. ago a young couple were at the Cayce Hospital; in fact, practically all of the family (his parents, brothers and sisters) were there off and on. The doctors had told them [[301] & [282]] they would not have any children, and they were considering adopting one, but the reading told them that certain corrections could be made so that they might have a child of their own. She stayed there for several weeks at the hospital. Their oldest little girl [299] will be 2 yrs. old in Aug. and the second child [314] was born April 18th. The readings have named both these children. I suppose they are both Cayce babies? The Life Rdg. was what they had for each one, and it told what should be the correct name. The older is [299], the younger [314]. Very pretty names."
1/30/37 Mr. [257] referred Mrs. [1335] for a Physical Rdg., saying: "She is a similar case to Mrs. [301]. She wants a baby."
