Then, we would give warnings respecting those tendencies
that exist, and we would have the corrections made very
soon; else those tendencies for such a leakage, produced
by the blocking of circulation, either in the lymph or in
the nerves, may be such as to cause a stroke - or a draining
of blood into or through the veins or arteries themselves.
Thus lesions might be formed upon the outside of the blood
flow, - or clot - either in brain or in some portion of
the body; or else we will find such an irregularity in the
pressure of blood supply and of the pulsation accompanying
same, as to become very, very aggravating to the body.
The lack of the proper metabolism and katabolism in the
system causes this dizziness, these periods of quick
tiredness, the needs to be in the open more.
We find these pathological conditions exist:
The blood is slowed at times, and then it may become
very quick. The metabolism is showing some pressure,
and irregularity - too much so for the better conditions
of the body.
There are poisons on account of lack of elimination, and
certain areas become reflexly affected under a very poor
stimulated nerve supply to locomotions, to hands, - yes,
even to the very reflexes of mental conditions also.
As we find, to make corrections in the proper manner:
We would keep away from sedatives or drugs as much as
practical.
Beware of many things that are seen or indicated in the
diet; that is, of overacid-producing foods, or those that
become in that nature of too great a quantity of bulk - and
thus causing the greater expansion in the area of digestion
and lack of proper elimination of the fecal forces.
In making for proper eliminations, we find that this may
best be done by having regular periods of taking a small
quantity daily of Eno Salts. Take a teaspoonful in a glass
of water each morning before any meal is taken, for three
to four days - regularly - or take it for five days, then
leave it off entirely for the next five or six days. Then
begin over again, and so on.
Also each week we would have a general hydrotherapy
treatment; this to include not a dry heat sweat but a mild
cabinet fume bath, and with this use small quantities of
Atomidine in the fume cup - two teaspoonsful of Atomidine to
the four ounces of water that would be boiling in the cup
under the body to produce the fumes.
Following such a fume bath, have a thorough rubdown (after
the shower, of course), with a combination of three parts
Pine Oil and one part Olive Oil.
In the diets and the activities, - beware of too much fats
or too much unusual combinations of starches; else we may
find these producing greater irritation to heart, lungs,
liver and kidneys than exists in the present.
And these, as we find, will bring better conditions for this
body.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Is this condition described the cause of the occasional
dizzy spells?
(A) The cause is the unbalanced metabolism and katabolism
of the body.
(Q) Am I working longer hours than I should at my age (66)?
(A) Yes, working long hours - but as we find, if there are
the changes as indicated, this may not be too great a stress.
(Q) Would it be better for me to continue to live in the
present apartment, or to move back to the suburbs where I
have a house which I have not been able to sell?
(A) Move back to the country. For, this will require that
there be efforts made, and thus may the entity be able to
keep the idle periods from becoming a disturbance to the
body.
(Q) The servant question enters also into this. Can you
give me any advice regarding same, in case I move back to
the country?
(A) As we find, it may be practical or possible for the
entity to obtain a housekeeper, or someone to look after
same - when the body is - usually - absent for the day.
We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND
5/25/43 Questions:
1. What causes the occasional dizzy spells?
2. Am I working longer hours than I should at my age (66)?
(Government hours - 8 hrs. a day 6 days a week.)
3. Would it be better for me to continue to live in the
present apartment or to move back to the suburbs where I
have a house which I have not been able to sell? (altho
I have had it on the market for 15 months or more. The
servant question enters also into this. This sounds like
rather a foolish question, but maybe you can help me to come
to a decision. Since my wife's death last March, I cannot
seem to come to a definite decision as to what to do.
REPORTS
2/08/44 Sister-in-law's letter: "You gave my husband's
brother a rdg. sometime ago [
3036] who was very pleased
and benefited by it..."
5/03/44 Letter: "Following your suggestions the dizziness
which bothered me at that time was relieved and I felt much
better until lately. Now these dizzy spells are bothering
me again and I should like to have another rdg. as soon as
possible to ascertain what causes them and to see if my
metabolism is off again; if so, what to do about it."
6/14/44 "I am glad to say my condition is much better than
it was at time of 1st rdg. I still have slight dizzy spells
and headaches at times but the hydrotherapy treatments you
recommended have helped that condition. My circulation does
not seem to be as good as it should be, and I should like to
know what causes the dizzy feeling and what should be done to
improve it. I have had no aid from the medical profession.
I have more faith in God than in doctors - Can you give me
the name of the manufacturer of Atomidine which you advise
using in connection with the hydrotherapy treatments?"
1. Is the metabolism off again? Is that what is causing
return of the dizzy spells? What should be done now? Is
this also the cause of the headaches?
2. Should I continue hydrotherapy treatments in same manner
as previously suggested?

3036-2.
