This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 1st day of April, 1937, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. [...], new Active Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mrs. Vernon Chapman.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mother of [1356].

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1356].
2. As we find, while the conditions of incoordination and the activities that prevent the nominal, normal developments are of an incipient nature, these as we find - with patience and persistence - may be made to bring a much nearer normal condition.
3. Then as bodily developments are changed, and if there is the response in the nerve ends becoming coordinant with the activity of the glandular forces of the system, we may bring near to normal forces in the developing years of the body.
4. These then as we find are the disturbances with this body, [1356] we are speaking of:
5. In the nerve forces and their coordinations with the muscular reactions, the lack of this development is through the glandular secretions that do not carry the stamina nor provide the proper hormones for producing the proper coordinations in those areas through the locomotions of the body, as well as through the coordinant nerve reactions.
6. But if there are then the stimulations to the glandular system, in the ways and measures that will produce in the nerves' reactory forces (that is, in the nerve force itself) that which will produce the greater stamina and build for those channels through which coordination may become active, we will find the coordinations becoming much nearer to a normal activity.
7. Then as indicated, if there are the responses - and if there is the persistence, we will find there may be with the developments - the much nearer to normal forces.
8. Begin, then, with these:
9. We would use the low electrical forces that carry only in the first the Chloride of Gold vibrations to the body. The applications in the beginning would be only twenty minutes each evening, or each day.
10. The Gold Solution should be changed and the Appliance recharged every thirty days.
11. After the second recharging, we will give changes that must be brought about for the bettered conditions.
12. The attachments would be made in this manner:
13. The smaller plate would be attached first, in the lumbar axis; while the larger plate, passing through the Gold Solution, would be attached last, over the lacteal duct and umbilicus center, or on the body development between the navel and the right side - or about half an inch directly to the right side from the navel on the right side.
14. Also we would have an oil massage each evening, prepared in this combination:
15. Equal portions of Olive Oil, Tincture of Myrrh and Compound Tincture of Benzoin. Heat the Oil to add the Myrrh. These will tend to separate, but shake well together before using each time.
16. Massage just what the body will absorb, beginning at the base of the spine and extending towards the head; across the sacral, the lumbar, through the dorsal and through those areas of the upper cervicals.
17. Then once or twice a week we would also massage the same combination of oils into or across the abdomen, and especially over the spleen and liver area. That means the right side just below the ribs and the left side just below the ribs, and across the abdomen.
18. In the diets, keep those that are for the better developments for bodily and muscular forces.
19. After sixty days we would give then further instructions.
20. Ready for questions.
21. (Q) Should the Appliance be given each day?
    (A) Each day, preferably in the evening; the massage or rub following same.
22. (Q) What produced this condition?
    (A) Lack of those activities in a prenatal condition.
23. (Q) How long before improvement may be seen?
    (A) There should be definite changes by the time of the second recharging, or the periods as indicated for further instructions or suggestions.
    First a better quiet, the more strength, then the responding of the sensory forces to suggestion.
    Do these as we find for the better conditions of this body, [1356].
24. We are through for the present.

REPORTS

1. 4/21/37 Mrs. [...]'s letter to EC:
   Association For Research & Enlightenment, Inc. Virginia Beach, Va.
   Dear Mr. Cayce,
   This is to notify you that I wish to cancel my membership in your Association. Please confirm by letter.
   Very truly yours, Mrs. [...]
2. 4/24/37 GD's letter to Mrs. [...]:
   Mrs. [...] ..., Va.
   Dear Mrs. [...]:-
   Your note of the 21st has been received. We are very sorry that you are discontinuing your membership with us. I am especially sorry because I feel this must mean that you are not going ahead with the Reading to carry out the suggestions given for your little girl, and from my past experience with this work I feel this would be a great mistake - because of the results that might be obtained. However, if this be true, I trust you may find elsewhere the help needed. After all, all healing and all good must come from one source - God; and there are many channels I'm sure through which He manifests in the earth.
   Do you wish us to take your name entirely off our mailing list, or did you merely mean that you do not care to continue your membership contribution? We would like to know.
   Trusting you will let us hear the real reason for discontinuing your membership (whether you feel it is a lack on our part or yours), and with kind regards and best wishes, I am
   Sincerely, [signed] Gladys Davis Sec'ty
