Edgar Cayce Readings, 973-1

(Physical Suggestion)

TEXT

EC: Yes. There are confusions, and confusions about the body also.
These conditions with this body, as we find, are very serious. Too long has there been the waiting or the dependence upon the normal reactions to be of a great help. However, as we find, the conditions may be aided somewhat; making for some easiness to the body. And the responses will depend upon the nursing and the administering of those things that may ward off the reactions that have set in, from the poisons that have accumulated in the system; brought about by those distresses in the blood supply and the lack of resistances in the system.
So these are the hindering forces; the lack of vitality, the lack of fresh blood for the replenishing, the burning of those forces that attempt to throw off the poisons and are using up the energies of the body.
We would administer immediately the Animated Ash in small doses; one-eighth grain emptied dry on tongue and washed down with a little water. Three to five minutes after the dosage of Ash is taken, apply the violet ray over the area of the lungs and the back portion of same. Give this each day, preferably in the evening.
To make for the allaying of the heaviness in the lung, and the strengthenings to the body through what may be assimilated, we would give the juice from boiled onions. Boil the onions inside of Patapar Paper, so as to save the juice and preserve all the elements. To each tablespoonful of the juice add ten (10) drops of lemon juice. Keep this in a cool place. Let it be stirred together and given in sips three or four times every two or three hours; or every hour or so give about a quarter to half a teaspoonful; or every twenty minutes to half an hour give a little sip of this.
Keep the fumes in the room, to be inhaled, from boiling equal parts of Oil of Eucalyptus and Oil of Pine Needles; that is, boil these (in water) in the room, so that the fumes may be inhaled. These will be strengthening.
If there is the response to the taking of the Ash and the violet ray, and the other things, so that more strengthening forces may be applied, then we would give further instructions.
But do these, and then we would give further instructions Friday; if there is the request for same.
Do not change other things surrounding the body.
Then if there is the necessity, or the request, we would give further instructions for the body on Friday.
We are through for the present.
