This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 10th day of January, 1942, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. [263], Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

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, [415], this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are changes gradually coming about of a normal nature. But under the stresses that exist in the cerebrospinal system in the present, these often cause aggravating conditions; producing - in combination with the regular or normal developments - irritation easily to a well balanced mental body.
4. From some exterior forces there has been a jamming of the vertebra in the upper cervical, and they reflex in the upper dorsal - until there are stresses being created by the deflection of impulse and of a little of nerve flow and blood flow with same - until the auditory forces and the ears are being hindered.
5. This causes those tendencies for forgetfulness, the complaining of ears and eyes, of the throat filling.
6. And these should be corrected osteopathically. We would give, for this especially, such as Richardson.
7. These should extend, then, particularly from the 5th or 6th dorsal to the first cervicals. We would have these at least twice a week until about twelve have been taken.
8. These as we find, with the general precautions for a well balanced diet, should bring about near to normal reactions with this body.
9. In the diet include plenty of citrus fruits, also plenty of the whole grain cooked cereals, - as the combinations of wheat and barley (as in Maltex), or the oats or the wheat, but these alternated so as not to cause the body to become disturbed by too oft one character of cereal. DO NOT have the cereal AND the citrus fruit at the same meal, but alternate these.
10. Use plenty of fish and fowl also.
11. Not too much of fried foods.
12. Have plenty of those foods that carry some calcium; as cabbage, turnips, beets and the like. The cabbage should be taken cooked and raw, but not cooked with grease. The turnips may be cooked with a little pork or plain, and then seasoned. The beets, as soon as possible, should be preferably the fresh - but those that are preserved or canned are good, provided these are not preserved in benzoate of soda. This would be indicated on the labels.
13. Do these things and we should bring the bettered conditions for the body.
14. Ready for questions.
15. (Q) Are the glands under ears in good condition or what may be done to remove after effects of scarlet fever? [See 415-2 on 11/02/33.]
    (A) These as indicated are a combination of the after effects by the jamming in the cerebrospinal system. All of this correction should come with the alleviating of the pressures and the stimulating of better activity through the cervical and upper dorsal areas particularly.
16. (Q) Does he have bad tonsils and adenoids?
    (A) These will be much improved with the correction of the flow of circulation through the area by these adjustments. They are disturbed, but not necessarily so that they would not clear if there are the proper precautions at this period.
17. (Q) Are teeth and eyes in good condition?
    (A) As has been indicated.
18. (Q) What causes and what may be done to cure biting fingernails?
    (A) This is nervousness and is a natural expression of the body. But it should be overcome merely by suggestion and not by aggravating.
19. (Q) In what condition is the spleen, the liver and the kidneys?
    (A) These are fair, but will be materially aided by the corrections - if the corrections are given at least to the 6th, 7th and 8th dorsals, see?
20. (Q) What can be done for cold hurt feet?
    (A) This will be aided by the stimulating of the circulation through the adjustments.
    After bathing the feet in warm water, massage the feet and limbs with Glyco-Thymoline - OR Lavoris. This will aid, but better the Glyco-Thymoline - for this particular body.
21. (Q) Is he having abnormal growth in height?
    (A) Will not be abnormal if there are the corrections as indicated.
22. (Q) What will help him become more interested in his school work?
    (A) This will be done by suggestion and by the determination of the body itself.
23. (Q) Is he reading too much outside of his school studies?
    (A) This can be determined best by the body! If these are the better interests for the body, it is very well - so they are put to use and not to abuse.
24. (Q) What is the psychological effect of moving pictures upon this particular body?
    (A) Some are very good, some are not so well. These will be better if there is better retention in the activities of the whole cerebrospinal system.
    Do these things as suggested, if we would bring the better forces for the body.
25. We are through for the present.
    [Ques. answered without being asked: Has the lick on his head when it hit the windshield in an auto accident last year left any injury?]
