Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mrs. [1485], a Dr. Wagner, and Frances Weil.

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, Mrs. [1485], present in this room.
2. Now as we find, while many conditions physically are very good, there are disturbances that are of a complicated nature, the correction of which in the present would relieve the body of the disturbances in specific as well as general natures.
3. Thus greater disturbances later on would be prevented, as well as relieving those conditions that exist in the present.
4. These as we find (the disturbances) arise in the soft tissue in throat, neck, head, from conditions that exist in the sources from which the activities of the circulatory forces to these portions of the body receive their impulses.
5. Thus, from the very source of infection, through the very lymph flow, conditions are produced in other portions of the body - as through the activities of the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous systems' reactions to the assimilating forces of the body.
6. Hence the digestive forces become disturbed by this very reaction upon the gastric flow.
7. These then are the conditions as we find them with this body, Mrs. [1485], we are speaking of, present in this room; first, then:
8. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, as we find from the very nature of the reactions of the conditions produced by the pressures that exist in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area, affecting the system through the vagus center to the throat, the head, the inclinations are produced towards a lack of sufficient of the plasm in the blood flow to create the proper coagulation or restoring influences through those portions thus affected.
9. That there has not been the forming of lesions in the sense of producing an activity which would be natural, where there are cohesions or coagulations that produce scar tissue, is because of the very activities that have been received by the system through assistance to the bodily functions themselves.
10. In the blood stream then, as we find, there is the lack of sufficient leucocyte or that plasm that produces the coagulating forces in the system.
11. IN THE NERVE FORCES OF THE BODY, here we find in certain portions, as has been indicated, as in the upper dorsal and through the cervical area, pressures that prevent the proper coordination between the deeper circulation and the superficial - or the lymph and the vegetative or sympathetic.
12. Thus we have nervous reactions that produce at times the easily tiring, owing to nerve reactions.
13. Yet the very influences that have prevented the forming into definite lesions, or adhesions, have aided at times in keeping a better balance in the body.
14. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, as we find, brain force reactions are very good - as related to suggestive forces, or the natures of the sympathetic system.
15. We find disturbing forces through the head, the neck and the throat, through the antrum and through nasal passages - as has been indicated.
16. The throat makes for irritations at times by the natural flow of these disturbing factors.
17. Thus this coming in conjunction with the activity of the gastric flow, upsets the digestion - or produces those disturbing conditions with the digestive system itself.
18. Hence there are variations as to the activity that this amount of these disturbances produce upon the liver, the spleen, the pancreas; thus causing each of these at times to become less active or overactive, dependent upon the cycle of activity of the organ as related to the glandular forces of the body.
19. In the digestive system itself - that is, the gastric flows in the stomach, through the duodenum, the activity of the digestive fluids from the bodily functions - we find these become disturbed at times; though these would of themselves become near to normal in their reactions if these pressures were removed, and the cleansing forces used for the soft tissue. For we find that the other disturbances that AFFECT the nervous system, that affect the digestive flow, that affect the activity of the organs as related to these, would of themselves become near to normal in their reactions.
20. As to the effect these produce upon the hepatic circulation: Here we find again, from the very activities of the body, the tendency to produce conditions when there are periods of reaction through the lower hepatic circulation. Thus the greater quantity of the uric forces would be formed for that portion of the system that must be eliminated from the system.
21. These at times then SYMPATHETICALLY produce irritations; and then through these portions of the system there are the reflexes as would arise from disturbing factors.
22. THEN, AS WE FIND, IN MAKING APPLICATIONS THAT WOULD BRING TO THE BODY THE CORRECTIONS NECESSARY FOR THE ELIMINATING OF THE DISTURBING FACTORS:
23. We would first through mechanical adjustments stimulate the activity for the actions through the upper dorsal and through the cervical area; coordinating, to be sure, with the 9th dorsal for its activity through the digestive forces, the lower lumbar and the last of the dorsal activity and especially in the 12th dorsal, the 4th lumbar, the reactions that would produce DRAINAGES from the system.
24. The corrections would relieve the pressures in the upper dorsal, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th and throughout the vagus centers to the 2nd cervical.
25. From the first or 3rd or 4th dorsal, then, to the 1st and 2nd cervical there is needed an alignment; that the pressures upon the nerve system may carry the influence of a better flow of the blood supply.
26. Then for those passages in the nose and throat we would use some mild antiseptic of a nature that is ALKALIN in its reaction; as Lavoris or Glyco-Thymoline; as a spray - warmed sufficient to be the temperature of the body, to produce cleansings through these portions.
27. And then in the digestive forces use any of the eliminants that carry FROM the system the excess amount of drosses that are produced by these reactions.
28. Then we would have the system adjusting itself to a near normal condition; as has been indicated, not only relieving the disturbances but preventing the reactions through other portions of the system later on by accumulations and the effects as would be produced in the functioning of organs owing to the distresses produced pathologically or cyclicly to the system itself.
29. In the matter of the diets and regularity of activities, these should be taken into consideration. Not those food values that produce an excess acidity, for the very nature of inflammation as is produced by the conditions in the circulatory forces tends to make for more acidity - and to produce the effect of the gas-forming forces through the duodenum and portions of the digestive forces themselves.
30. Hence at least an eighty percent alkalin reaction to a twenty percent acid reaction diet should be followed.
31. Do these and we will bring to this body much nearer normal forces.
32. Ready for questions.
33. We are through for the present.
