This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 16th day of January, 1943, in accordance with request made by the self through her sister, Miss [243], associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Evelyn Hoag and Mae Verhoeven.

TEXT

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: Yes, we have the body here, [340]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, conditions show acute neuritic reactions, affecting the centers along the spine as related to the sensory forces specifically.
4. We would set up better eliminations, which may be done best in the present by taking a teaspoonful of Eno Salts each morning for a period of at least five or six days.
5. Then we would set up a better tonal reaction of the flow of lymph through the alimentary canal with the Essence of Ginger and the other ingredients as we have heretofore indicated for the body. This needs attention, to coordinate better conditions through the colon. [See 340-23.]
6. For the local applications to the eyes (because of irritation of the lids), we would use scraped Irish potato; using a good antiseptic to bathe same off when the compact of the potato is removed.
7. DO NOT put any great strain on the eyes, - as the close needle work, or sewing, or the like, - for these need rest, especially through the three to four to five days of these poultices being applied, at least once each day. Use the old Irish potato.
8. Do these for the general health, and the specifics as indicated to the eyes, and we should bring bettered conditions for this body.
9. Ready for questions.
10. We are through for the present.
