Edgar Cayce Readings, 743-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes, we have the body here, [743].
Now, as we find, many conditions-physical are very good; yet there are those tendencies we find in the system the correction of which in the present would prevent distresses later on. And removing the causes in the present not only prevents disorders that may arise, or would arise, but will remove those things which at times in the present give distresses to the system. These, as we find, are the effects that arise from the lack of proper coordination in that which is assimilated and that which is distributed in the physical forces of the body; producing at times the effects of tendons and muscular forces, locomotory activities, becoming taut. And straightening or strengthening these will make for conditions that would be much more satisfactory. These produce also the effects of a tiring at times to the body from these strains; a pinched character of headache that is peculiar to the nature itself, making for a centralizing of same in the middle portion of the head, and causing then an undue form of nervous reactions over the body.
These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body:
The BLOOD SUPPLY indicates that there are the effects of an improper balance in the form of the chemical reactions in the system from that which is assimilated; that is, not so much that the glands refuse to function but with the general nerve strain that arises from a condition that exists in the 11th and 12th dorsal center - which makes for a heaviness through the functionings of the organs of the pelvis as related to the activities of the nervous system - there is produced a strain upon those conditions that are acting upon the organs as related to the flow of the impulses in the locomotory forces. Hence the heaviness at times across the lower portion of the abdomen, but across the lumbar and sacral area. At times there is a heaviness in the brachial center or under the shoulders, that makes for a heaviness for the body. These, of course, are but the indications; though the subluxation that exists in the 11th and 12th dorsal center is the basis or cause for the disturbance to the lacteal duct area functioning in its assimilating from the sustaining forces in the diet of the body.
In the NERVOUS SYSTEM, the natural reactions are for the effect to the nerve centers to the head, as to the heaviness that is produced in these portions of the body; and an uneasiness at times that is experienced by the body is the incoordination between the impulses through the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal system, that is produced from those reactions we have indicated.
As to the ORGANS themselves of the body, it may be seen from such reactions that naturally there are disturbances at times to the organs of the sensory system, so that the auditory forces, the vision, the portions of the system show unusual reflexes that cause at times some burning for the eyes, an unusual effect upon the body by various odors, the activity that may be seen by the reflex in the vision that is experienced through these TENDENCIES in the system. Not that they have become as effective conditions, but tendencies; so that if these may be corrected in the present we will make for a much nearer normal body.
The circulation through the throat, bronchi, lungs and larynx, is near normal.
From the very nature of those things that have been taken at times for rest, for the periods of reactions in the system, there is not a perfect or normal heart reaction; yet not an organic disturbance - but a tendency for the needs of these conditions, unless changed, will make for a much more abnormal reaction.
From the very nature of the disorders indicated, the digestive system at times becomes upset. Not that we would say the CAUSE arises from the digestive disorders, but rather the ASSIMILATING disorders - from those reflexes as indicated.
As to the pancreas, spleen, liver and the ducts of same, these make for periods when there is an uneasiness rather than pain - and these are the contributory causes to the headaches of the peculiar type or nature, that may arise from reflexes; but these are not the causes, as indicated.
Then, in meeting the needs of the conditions in this body, if these would be corrected in the PROPER relationships one to another we find there would not be a great deal of discomfort or disorder experienced in making for a much nearer and almost a normal body throughout.
First we would prepare two solutions in this manner, that would be kept separate:
We would take three to six grains of Chloride of Gold, and add to one ounce of distilled water for each grain of the Chloride of Gold.
Then we would prepare the Sodium Bi-carbonate solution; five grains to each ounce of distilled water, for ten grains to two ounces - which should be sufficient.
Then, when these are to be taken (not in large quantities but), add one drop of the Chloride of Gold solution and three minims or drops of the Soda solution in half a glass of water. This would be the dosage, and should be taken immediately as it is prepared; for the reactions begin as soon as the Gold and Soda are combined with the gastric juices of the salivary glands - that should be in an alkalin state (but do not always remain so with this body); so the combined alkalin and acid will make for a stimulation to the glands in such measures - AS the corrections are made osteopathically, which we will designate - as to create for a balance to overcome the tendencies towards the salts or the acidities in the system to accumulate in the muscular and tendon forces of the extremities. This dosage of the combined Gold and Soda solutions would be given once each day, preferably upon retiring - one minim of the Gold solution and three minims of the Sodium solution. Given in such small quantities a little time will be required for the reflex action through the system, but it is to be given in such a way and manner as to not make for a shock but a growth to the system that assists in not only absorbing but in setting up drainages and making for the solving of those tendencies for accumulations in the knees, toes, hips, and across portions of the shoulder and arms. For these are the pressures upon the locomotions, as indicated.
Also, during the same period the Gold and Soda solutions are being taken internally (for these treatments are to work together cooperatively), we would have made the corrections - either osteopathically or through the masseur - in the 11th and 12th dorsal center, as indicated. Two or three times each week these adjustments should be made, and at the same period a general manipulation and massage over the whole of the cerebrospinal system.
As to the diet, keep more of the alkalins. No heavy foods that EVER are fried. And let one meal each day be of only raw green vegetables; not green in color necessarily, but in their very nature - those that carry all the vitamins necessary in creating the effluvia within the blood and nerve supply that is revivifying in its very nature.
Do these, and we find we will bring the much nearer normal condition for this body.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Are there any other suggestions for the better physical conditions at this time?
(A) We would keep these in the present. For, as we find, the PREVENTATIVES are much preferable to those attempts of corrections or curative influences in the body. These are tendencies that have not taken hold. Keep as far away from sedimentary conditions as possible, or the very natures that produce inhibitions IN the activity of the glands themselves - such as sedatives of any nature.
Do these, and we will bring the better conditions for this body, [743].
We are through for the present.
