TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the bodies and those conditions as surround same.
2. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Is the present physical condition of the mother [903] in normal condition?
   (A) Near so.
4. (Q) What exercise should body take during the summer beginning now?
   (A) As much outside as is possible.
5. (Q) Should she dance any?
   (A) This will add materially to the welfare of the body, will this not be taken to excess, as any other exercise of such nature. In the open - horseback, walking, golfing, and such - swimming, and such - is well for the body.
6. (Q) What are the best foods for the body to eat for the baby's best aid?
   (A) Those of the full blood producing portions for the body. Not too much fats, nor too much sugars - but those that add materially to the nerve and blood supplying of the system. A well divided condition for such will be found in those foods that give the well balanced between the alkalin forces and the proteins - taking sufficient of those that add the vitamins - especially of vitamin D.
7. (Q) Should the body and baby go West during the month of May?
   (A) This has been given.
8. (Q) Where would be best place for them during the rest of summer?
   (A) Wherever they may be in the open - by the sand, by the sea, by the shadows - these are well.
9. (Q) Should Mother [903] have any medical assistance at present to bring her body back to former condition?
   (A) EXERCISES are better than medicines. Medicines will only add that which is to be taken off somewhere else.
10. (Q) What should baby be guarded against during the summer?
    (A) Only those of that as will keep as near as possible the normal digestion.
11. (Q) What should the Mother do now to begin the baby's training to make it a normal well developed mental and physical baby that is desired of it?
    (A) This may be expanded upon in many directions - but this may give that as is desired most: Study that as is desired of the body, and continue to visualize that - for the developing consciousness; being always mindful that the subconscious is ever alive in the developing entity and storing that consciousness gained by precept and example.
12. (Q) Advise [[257], father] as to his physical body - what special care should be given now? [See 257-26 on 3/31/28.]
    (A) Don't get too fat!
13. (Q) How can he prevent it?
    (A) Taking the proper exercises!
14. (Q) What should body do during summer to keep his weight normal and his health good?
    (A) Work like fifty when working - and play the same way! resting in sufficient manner as to keep a well balanced PHYSICAL body, as well as mental and spiritual body.
15. (Q) What should the body eat?
    (A) These have been outlined so often! Why repeat them here? Eat that that is in keeping with the surroundings, and not OVEREAT.
16. (Q) What will get rid of the dandruff from his hair - he is using the vaseline and alcohol as prescribed months ago -
    (A) But not consistently!
17. (Q) How can he further assist?
    (A) Be consistent! as well as persistent!
18. (Q) Any further advice for this body?
    (A) Keep in the way that it should go, knowing that in the well balanced, well rounded life may come the satisfaction not attained by making it lopsided in any way.
19. We are through for the present.
