MATISM, it
releases the acids, starts secretions flowing. Rheumatism calls for
dry climates, non-acid diet. Avoid sweets and starch, take salt water
baths, drink lithia water. Walk all you can. Change your work. BE SURE
TO DRINK A CUP OF HOT WATER EACH MORNING on rising. Put a little salt
in to help cleanse the stomach of septic acids. Drink two cups, all
the better.

=CONSTIPATION:= The best vibration and advice is that above for
this trouble. Be regular about going to the toilet each morning. Eat
vegetable diet, rye bread, or graham. Eat little meat, chew your food
to a liquid mastication. Keep up the intestinal vibrations, in 20 days
your constipation will be a trouble of the past.

=HEADACHES AND BILIOUSNESS:= These are the results of
AUTO-INTOXICATION, the worry, hurry, eating fast, eating too much,
over exerting, anxiety, all of these poison the process of digestion
and assimilation. Take a dose of epsom salts, castor oil, or cascara

=OBESITY:= Keep up the internal vibrations all over the body.
Keep up the exercises of Lesson Seventh. REDUCING IS A MORAL RESOLVE
TO EAT LESS. If you are a coward you cannot reduce, if your appetite,
that is unreal, unnatural and dangerous, makes you its slave so that
you eat 5,000 units of food when 3,000 is a great sufficiency, then
you lack MORAL WILL FORCE TO REDUCE. Drink the hot water as above, or
put into it a little lemon juice. When you feel hunger come on drink
a cup of the lemon hot water, just a few drops of the lemon juice. Get
so you can go without your noon lunch except one-half slice of bread
and a cup of hot water one-quarter milk. KEEP UP WALKING. KEEP UP THE
BODY BUILDING EXERCISES. RUB AND MASSAGE THE FACE AND NECK. Do not
eat fat, pastry, confection, or starchy foods. Eat slowly, Fletcherize

known to the glutton. Abhor being fat, unshapely, and be unhappy over
it, but never tell others how you feel. Keep your deficiencies to
yourself, master them, be free of them, then living will become a
joy, your body a daily delight, and you shall possess a Supreme
Personality.
