It brings to the surface some other physical feelings, however, that are connected with the usual symptoms. He is meant to see the connection. The sinuses are involved. The feeling of being full through the body—heavy—has a connection with the full-head feeling, initially, of sinus origin physically.

The cold symptoms also have operated to increase his circulation. The body combating the (in quotes) “new” symptoms is also creating antibodies that affect the old symptoms. He has had a better appetite. The body has been calling for more food and nourishment, and quite unconsciously he has been consuming a larger amount of peanut butter, which is giving him several nutriments that he needs.

Intuitively he began to understand the physical connections between that kind of cold and sinus involvement, and his condition. (Gestures to include the whole body.) A cold is something that comes and goes, and is not permanent, and he is to see his other symptoms in that same light—not as he saw them earlier, as a permanent-like situation.

All, then, a lesson in the nature of beliefs as he applies them to his own body and behavior. A test case. “I will give myself this, and get rid of it, and then apply what I have learned to this other situation that has been bothering me.”

Now out in the cold also means that you are stiff. The antibodies produced by the cold symptoms result in a body activity that has produced some fever—but a benign one that warms him up and increases circulation.

Then the cold did serve to drastically improve his health. Because he did not understand the nature of his beliefs however the improvement, while lasting for some time, deteriorated. This time the body’s overall condition, using the method adopted, required a longer period of such stress-transformation, and so the cold condition has been of longer duration.
