(Seth proceeded to suggest several things Peggy might do; if she followed the suggestions the trouble should disappear. She should give herself suggestions before sleep that she not sleep on her left side, but her right side instead. This would remove the pressure on the afflicted side of the body. Peggy said she didn’t think she slept on her left side; Seth said she did after going to sleep, and that suggestion would prevent this. Seth told Peggy not to lean on her left elbow during the day, especially at work. Even as he spoke, we saw Peggy leaning on her left elbow. Peggy said she may have the habit of leaning on her desk at the newspaper office with her left arm or elbow; she will check.

(In connection with the above, Seth told Peggy not to take aspirin. The aspirin, he said, aggravates the problems caused by tension in this particular instance. A congestion builds up in the back and arm. Seth then told Peggy to drink two cups of coffee at breakfast. Peggy drinks one as a habit. Seth said the extra caffeine in her case would stimulate circulation, whereas the aspirin would hinder it. He was definite on this.

(Seth told Peggy the yoga exercises were basically excellent for her if done at the proper tempo, and to keep them up. He said Peggy should surmount the problem setting up the tension in her back, which was leading in turn to the other physical symptoms, for if she did not there was a danger that any habits of rigidity would grow worse in the future. Seth did not go into any emotional causes this evening, and was not asked to. Peggy agreed to try the routine suggested, and will report on results.
