ou may,
conditions do not count. No matter how weak, how isolated, how deep
in the mire of trouble, you can rise, you can be free, you can be
renewed. You may have a whole library of all sorts of books and
treatises on healing. You may have a library of biology and pathology,
but you can never read yourself well. What you need is what I have
sought to give you, POSITIVE WORKING PLANS. It takes some WORK to
build a hut, more to build a comfortable home, still more to build
a palace of luxury. How much MIND AND WILL WORK are you willing to
devote to build your body into a Temple of the living God?

=MENTAL CONFUSION:= Make an easy PLAN for each day. Relax your
mind tension, let down your body tension, eat less, drink water, walk
in the open air. Change your thought to new plans, new work. LET GO OF
THE PAST. Have nothing to do with the future. Sweep aside the odds and
ends that litter your mind. Let go by denying them any place in your
mind. TALK WITH STRONG PEOPLE. Leave weak, useless people alone. Take
a salt bath, by going into the ocean, or in your own tub, using a
full pint of common salt. Do not tell your troubles to another, HELP
another in trouble to get out, and you will get out yourself. MAKE NEW
PLANS.

=WORRY AND FEAR:= Ask yourself this question: "How many things I
have worried about and feared ever happened to me?" You will see how
few, and only those you attracted. Worry is lost energy. It is like
a rocking chair, keeps going but never gets anywhere. It is like a
mill-owner starting all the machinery of his mill, then going away,
leaving it running to injury and destruction. It is a miserable habit.
It makes you and others near you unhappy. It destroys your usefulness,
injures your health, kills joy. QUIT THE HABIT. How? By forming new
PLANS of thought, work, expression, activity, and living only one day
at a time. Stop resisting, struggling, let go of selfish purpose,
and start loving. Make a change. Start new. Grow something, make
something, laugh when you think you are going to cry.

=DEPRESSIVE MOODS:= Dress in light colors, Pink, Lavender, Green,
Red, get away from browns, blacks, and dead colors. Try blue if you
are nervous. Eat very lightly, walk till tired, take the salt water
bath, not hot but cool. Stop self-pity, change your surroundings, even
if all you can do is to turn your bed around. Seek new people. MAKE
NEW PLANS DAILY.

=NERVOUS TROUBLES:= Build your body with my Lesson Fifth. Take
