TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1523]; this we have had before.
2. Now as we find, conditions are very much improved from that as we had before.
3. Most all of the congestions and the causes of same have been eliminated from those areas as indicated.
4. There are other disturbances throughout the system, of a different or of a varied nature, that also may be aided - while these activities as may be indicated in the present are being given.
5. First, we would continue occasionally - that is, once or twice to three times a week, dependent upon the feelings through the body (which if active would produce through the pelvis and through the lower limbs those tendencies for a drawing, or a tautness; at other times rather a deadened, leadened feeling - as of contraction through the areas as indicated) - the use of the Violet Ray Vaginal Applicator, also the Douches. However, NOW the Douche would be STILL used AFTER the Vaginal Applicator - not before.
6. For the disturbances that have for considerable periods at various times disturbed the body through the soft tissue in face, antrum and especially in the nasal passages, as combined with the circulation that has been disturbed by the use of influences to deaden the activity of the nerve system, we would take rather specific exercises - and breathing exercises - of the nature as may be given here.
7. These as we find would not only make for the relieving of the tendencies that occur there at times, but will aid in re-oxidizing the whole of the circulation in such a manner as to make for a revivifying and re-ionizing of the whole nervous systems; thus will bring back more body-vitality to the activities of the bodily forces themselves; and less of the tendency to become so easily tired by mental or physical activities of the body.
8. And this will aid - with this character of exercise - to strengthen the muscular forces of the abdominal area.
9. Then if this congestion is entirely relieved, by keeping to the activities indicated, those tendencies for adhesions and for the lesions that form through the operative forces will be aided through the increased circulation as to also bring the nearer to normal activities of the body; making for better position of the organs of the pelvis, making for better assimilations and activities throughout the bodily forces themselves.
10. The exercises as we find that would be indicated for this body are not to be taken just occasionally, but should be used in a systematic, consistent and persistent manner for at least periods of three to four weeks; then there may be a rest period from same for a week to ten days, and then be revived again.
11. But as we find, if these are CONSISTENTLY kept, there will be such an exuberance or the reaction will be such that the body will desire to keep them the more often.
12. Of morning, and upon arising especially (and don't sleep too late!) - and before dressing, so that the clothing is loose or the fewer the better - standing erect before an open window, breathe deeply; gradually raising hands ABOVE the head, and then with the circular motion of the body from the hips bend forward; breathing IN (and through the nostrils) as the body rises on the toes - breathing very deep; EXHALING SUDDENLY through the MOUTH; NOT through the nasal passages. Take these for five to six minutes. Then as these progress, gradually CLOSE one of the nostrils (even if it's necessary to use the hand - but if it is closed with the left hand, raise the right hand; and when closing the right nostril with the right hand, then raise the left hand) AS the breathing IN is accomplished. Rise, and the circular motion of the body from the hips, and bending forward; EXPELLING as the body reaches the lowest level in the bending towards the floor (expelling through the mouth, suddenly). See?
13. Then of an evening, just before retiring - with the feet braced against the wall, circle the torso by resting on the hands. Raise and lower the body not merely by the hands but more from the torso, and with more of a circular motion of the pelvic organs to strengthen the muscular forces of the abdomen. Not such an activity as to cause strain, but a gentle, circular motion to the right two to three times, and then to the left.
14. Take these exercises night and morning; the standing and the bending and circling with the breathing of a morning; the circular motion of the pelvis and the torso of the body with the feet braced, using the hands, of an evening; doing these, of course, with the clothing loose or removed, so that there are the full movements.
15. And then keep the eliminations well - by the diets and by the activities that may bring about the full eliminations and we may bring to normal conditions this body.
16. Ready for questions.
17. (Q) Should I continue taking Zilatone tablets every other day?
    (A) This should be the period now to leave these off. If it becomes necessary, to make for the proper activity through the alimentary canal, take them again - later. But change now rather to those diets and activities that tend to make for the proper activity through the alimentary canal.
18. (Q) Should intercourse be discontinued?
    (A) This should be very seldom, and not until the lesions are broken up at least - which will be at least in another thirty to forty days.
19. (Q) What can be done to enlarge the bust to normal before pregnancy and keep them normal after pregnancy?
    (A) A gentle massage not over the bust themselves but along and over the mammary glands, on either side of the arms, under the arms, with Olive Oil - this is preferable; between and above and below same, see, but not OVER the bust themselves.
20. (Q) Should the violet ray and douche be used during menstruation?
    (A) This should not be until there is near the end of same.
    Do these things; be consistent, be persistent; and we should bring near to normal conditions for this body.
21. We are through with this Reading.
