TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the further improvement of same, and you will answer any questions I may ask you regarding the body.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here - this we have had before.
3. Now, we find at the present time there are some unsatisfactory conditions. While in some respects the body shows improvements from that as we had here before, yet the body has not responded wholly as it should have to the treatments and to the properties taken in system. Not because of the system itself, but rather of those treatments that SHOULD bring better coordination in the nerve reflexes - especially to the central nerve system, for the manipulations should REDUCE the pulsation rather than increase same! Do not be too strenuous in the treatments as applied to the lumbar and the upper dorsal region. Rather pay closer attention to the treatments as applied to the lower and central dorsal region, and we will find the reflexes from the manipulation will bring rather rest and ease. Keep the treatments for the time being until we can reduce the pulsation and the action as is created in same, for this has been produced by that which has brought about dilation to the functioning of the radiating plexus, or to the heart's action, from the cardiac plexus. So, by bringing stronger manipulation to this radiation we will find we will reduce, rather than tire out the body. Let the body rest as much as is possible.
4. This would be well for the body to follow with that already as given:
5. When the body first awakes of morning, whether light or still dark, get up! Immediately on arising roll a lemon and cut in two. Eat a portion of it - without salt - half of it - all the juice from same - then walk just as far as possible, AWAY FROM THE HOUSE - not so far that the body is not sure of making it back, see? When the body has returned, sprinkle salt on the other half of lemon and eat it. Then drink ALL the water POSSIBLE following same. Not before, but AFTER the last half is eaten. Then sit down, or lie down, and rest until the body feels entirely relaxed before the first meal is taken. Add only that. We will find this acid, combining with that as is created in system and as is being eliminated from system, will reduce not only the pulsation as caused from the reaction to the heart's forces, but will assist in CLEANSING system of the poisons from same.
6. Do that for at least twenty to thirty days. Then further instructions would be given.
7. We are through with this reading.
