IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, this we find in distress in more than
one direction. While the distresses with same may not be
found wholly in that condition as would be described for the
body in the present moment, there are evidences - through the
organs, as functioning with the blood supply - EVIDENCES of
these conditions existent, and existing from time to time.
The heart's action properly may be termed as one overcharged,
with the change or alternation in a high and low blood
pressure, yet not what would be termed properly a condition
of the heart itself. The blood changes in the system are
effected through the sympathetic system, so that extremes in
any direction, mentally or physically, cause a subsidation,
or a subsiding of pulsation or heart action, or may RAISE
same to a higher than normal activity. The evidences of same
are seen in the effects as are found in various portions of
the system through which the blood flow is active, as is seen
in the sympathetic system as related to impulse from same to
the mucous membranes of throat and head, and nasal cavities,
or all of soft tissue as supplied through the central nerve
supply, in the effects created in ganglia and in ends of
same. In the blood's activity itself we find a high and a
low blood count. This, again, is seen in conditions as exist
in the vegetative nerve system; that is, that inability of
the body to create in itself, under stress or strain, or such
an abnormal condition in such activity as to create the
necessary stimuli for proper digestion under strain of any
sort. Hence the conditions as exist at times concerning the
digestive system, which is also reflected in the blood
supply, in the character and number of count as would be
given, in either the divisions of the red or white blood
supply. THIS, as we see, gives the body that impetus
through which it is, or becomes easily affected by cold or
congestion, sleeplessness at times, or insomnia - the
inability to keep weight properly, or at others to gain fast
or to lose fast. These are but REFLEXES of the DISTURBANCES
as are seen in organs, in reflected forces of the system, and
as reflect themselves in the blood supply proper.
IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, here we find the GREATER cause, or the
greater channel proper, through which assistance may come to
the body. The inability to retain much of the vitality that
is necessary to be stored in system is produced much by the
strains as are exhibited in the nerve system in different
directions. Here we find also another cause that is a
product of the conditions as we find in the physical
examinations of the body, being so different under different
conditions; for some in their examinations have declared
various conditions existent, when the same examination made
by others does not locate such troubles or disturbances at
all. These not the fault of the ability of ones examining
same. Rather the wide variations of conditions that have
and do exist with the physical functioning of this body.
THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS, are much under this stress and
strain, as is seen from that as has been given, in how the
effect to assimilation and digestive forces are involved.
Same becomes effective in that of how the impulses through
the activity of the brain forces proper, or the central nerve
system as related to the sympathetic and cerebro-spinal in
its combinations these are effective conditions at times.
Not that the body [is] MENTALLY unbalanced, yet in self FEELS
that often, under the stress and strain of worry, both mental
AND physical, that it IS incapacitated in that direction. In
the activity of organs proper:
As is seen in physical body, the recurrent forces as come in
the form of inflammation to the mucous producing portions of
system, these are affected by the sympathetic consciousness
of a continued re-occurrence of troubles, and ALSO by
physical conditions existent in the region of the secondary
cardiac plexus, or in the 6th, 7th, 3rd and 4th dorsal
plexuses. Also the reflection of same to the upper portion
of the system in the cervical region, as is a GOVERNING
center to the cardiac or the HYPOGASTRIC plexus. The
PNEUMOGASTRIC only is involved SYMPATHETICALLY; yet these
corrections, with the PROPER injection of that of the pollen
that is effective to the mucous coating of system, will
remove or restrain these conditions in the system, and these
given to the body would prevent this re-occurrence of the
temperature or fever, or cold that arises through the pollen
season. Will also remove that nerve tension, PHYSICALLY, as
is exercised in the conditions produced in heart's action.
The body, to regain a nearer normal reflection, would be well
to take a sea voyage, or be near a large body of salt water,
with sand, and those properties that are of nearer the
conditions produced by the effectiveness of assimilated
iodine in system; or to take properties carrying both iron,
iodine and calcium, will effectually aid the body in its
physical direction, but the more of the spiritual awakening
is also necessary for the effective and effectual correcting
of conditions.
Worry will not gain for the body in ANY direction. Then,
learn from within to cast the burdens of self and surrounding
influence on Him who is able to bear, and who knows the heart
of man in such a way and manner as to be the door through
which man and woman may approach the creative element of all
forces as are active in this material world; knowing that all
force is of that Creative Energy and is sufficient to sustain
one, will one but cast self upon the promises as have been
made for man's own understanding through the indwelling of
the divine within each individual, and is ever ready and
willing to answer to the call for self and those dependent
upon same. We are through.

BACKGROUND
6/22/29 Letter from [
165]: "...My sister, Mrs. [
5639],
... Avenue, Toledo, Ohio, desires to have a physical reading.
Enclosed please find her check for $25,00. The questions she
would like to have answered are as follows: (1) What
relation is there between the different physical troubles I
have? (2) What precautions will prevent recurrence of growth
that was removed? (3) How soon can my system become so
normal as to have no further serious constipation? (4) What
relation have my asthma and hay fever to each other?
(5) What effect will their relief have on my bad heart
action? (6) Must I go to Petoskey again this year for hay
fever relief? (7) What method must I pursue to arrive at a
better mental balance? (8) What is to be the future of my
mental condition? (9) What suggestions are there for a
regular occupation to occupy body and mind in addition to my
limited housework? (10) Will I find mental relief due to
future improved health in my children? (11) How much of my
depression is due to the irrational life of my son, [...]?
(12) How can I help this situation improve?
"Please correspond with her and inasmuch as a portion of her
difficulty is seasonal, it would be helpful if it would
require action in the next couple of weeks if possible..."
