Edgar Cayce Readings, 369-13

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here, [369]; this we have had before.
As we find, the general physical conditions of the body are very much improved from those as we have had heretofore; and we will find that - if there will be the proper precautions; not as rote, but as that the body controls its own appetites, its own desires, its own physical activities, whether as related to the bodily functionings of the organs of the body or as to those activities in the material and mental - we may keep in an even balance.
Again, as we find, it would be WELL to accord - as a contributory effort in these directions, in keeping the balance - the vibrations from the Radio-Active Appliance, that may bring the perfect coordination in the extemities as according with and cooperating with the circulatory influences throughout the system.
Otherwise, as we find, save as those necessities that we may keep for the balancing within the system - through the diet, through the eliminations of the body, we should keep a near normal body.
Ready for questions.
(Q) What causes me to continue having the coated tongue in the morning?
(A) The lack of, or the poor circulation; or the TENDENCIES for the congestions in portions of the system. Keep the activities of the body; that is, the PHYSICAL activities - in its exercises, and in the matter of the diet. And forget about what the tongue looks like! Think more about what you say with the tongue, than what the tongue looks like!
(Q) What causes pains off and on in right side?
(A) The attempt of the liver's activity to exercise its normal flow through the congested conditions that arise at times in the system. Hence the suggestion for the use of the low form of the electrical forces, in the Radio-Active Appliance, to equalize the circulation to the extremities.
(Q) The slow, sluggish, slightly feverish condition, that seems to come upon me in the afternoon?
(A) Lack of purposefulness in its activities; lack of looking forward to something for the principal activities of the body! Make the things more definite in the experience, and we will find these will be forgotten - in the exercises and in the purposefulness of the exercise!
(Q) Should the liver prescription be taken now?
(A) Occasionally; but only for periods of one or two days, and then leave it off for three or four weeks, see?
But take the Appliance each day, until we find this dizziness and this tendency for sluggishness disappears.
(Q) Should the tonic prescription be repeated?
(A) Not necessary in the present. Later it may be; through those periods just before the Holidays - or during those periods would be very well.
(Q) Any other advice for the body at this time?
(A) Make the mental activities and the functioning of the organs themselves coordinate, by the SEEING of those activities in the way as desired by the body. For that we build within the mental self, the whole of the being seeks to materialize in the physical activities.
We are through with this reading.

REPORTS

10/20/35 "I am too busy trying to reduce to really do much else. Yes, I loathe the fat now, and am determined to get down to 130. So far have brought it down to 136 1/2 from 146 1/2 (the middle of the summer). Am fast becoming a fanatic on the subject of being thin. Never again! And I said I WANTED to be fat! [See 369-5 Reports, 7/28/30.] It's too hard to get rid of."
