1. Sit before your mirror and accept your reflected image as being that of the person you wish to impress. It may be your superior at work, your subordinate, your loved one, your offspring, or some stranger.
2. Due to the excessive emotional reactions you have acquired towards your modern environment, you dread not being able to influence that person as you wish. As a result you do fail to influence him (or her).
3. Your fear-sympathetics (the "fear portion'' of your sympathetic nervous system) speed up your heart and turn your breathing fast and shallow. At the same time, glycogen in your liver is converted to sugar to supply more energy to your now poised-for-action muscles. These muscles use up this sugar and cast off lactic acid as a waste product. Since injections of lactic acid induce anxiety in animals, this added lactic acid in your bloodstream increases your excessive emotions.
4. Prevent your emotions from increasing by lessening the amount of this added lactic acid accumulating in your bloodstream. To achieve that:
5. Take a half breath, and hold it for four seconds.
6. By then you will be gasping for breath. It will stimulate your fear-sympathetics still more by frightening you with the prospects of suffocation.
7. Then exhale quietly and breathe normally again.
8. Your subconscious mind will respond now as if you have already faced the person or obstacle in the mirror and overcome him or it. The added lactic acid
in you will be thrown off through your lungs in the form of carbon dioxide. Your fear-sympathetics, as a result, will lose their abnormal drive to protect you. And so, your irritability will be reduced markedly.
Frequency: Do this secret Yoga mov-asana 5 times every morning. Do it easily any time during the day. It also helps to stabilize your heart and normalize your blood pressure.
How Lou E. Suddenly Swept Others off Their Feet
No matter how thoroughly Lou E. prepared himself to impress others, the moment he faced them, his heart pounded so hard that he could hardly breathe. His forehead blazed with heat, and his body turned rigid. He became a veritable nobody. He envied calm people who swept others off their feet.
I taught Lou the Lactic Releaser. After practicing it only once he was a changed person. Next day he faced the very person he wanted to impress most with a new, calm repose, for his subconscious mind responded as if he had already swept that person off his feet. Lou's emotionality was ousted, and he carried his plans through with thrilling exactitude.

How Yoga Gives You A Youthfully, Healthful Digestive System
The Yoga "Toning up" Effect on Stomach and Intestines
As exercise, the Yoga mov-asanas have an added advantage over lifting weights because you can perform them from positions which would be unsafe or impossible with weights. To handle barbells you have to sit, stand, or lie in positions which permit the weight to be supported or suspended mainly by your skeleton. The weight you could manage safely, otherwise, would be too light to bring benefits. With the Yoga mov-asanas, though, you can vary the resistance you have to overcome in the movement with your own counter muscles, with the balls of your feet, with your knees, with your skeletal leverage, with changing the angles of using your joints, and other natural mechanisms. And you can do so from so many different angles that you can alter the contours of any part of your body with comparative ease.
The same applies to your stomach and intestines. The Yoga mov-asanas brace your abdominal muscles and massage your stomach from easy positions without the painful contractions resulting from using barbells or apparatus, thus adding pleasure to the exertion. This pleasure stimulates your stomach and intestines and tones them up, so that you look forward to them with excitement rather than with dread. Your parasympathetic nervous system—the nervous system of your normal functions—is triggered by pleasure and rushes more nerve-electricity to your stomach and intestines and gives them more tone.
The Yoga mov-asanas, besides, arouse your sympathetic nervous system less than barbells or apparatus because they spare you from the feeling of performing something heavily laborious, so your stomach and intestines remain toned up more than normally. That's the Yoga secret.
Effect of the Splanchnic Double-Curl After You Eat
Over the years your sympathetic nervous system experiences many shocks. You grow distrustful of other people because you see shrewd dishonesty of so many of the people on the job, in business, or socially, or romantically. Your outraged sympathetic nervous system turns you secretly hostile and plagues you with digestion tension. Many other conditions likewise affect your system, such as unhappiness, disappointment, financial worry, losing your job, the unexplainable desertion of friends, the breaking of your engagement to marry, the discovery that your mate is unfaithful, a divorce, the death of a loved one. Even subclinical pains in your middle back flash their undiagnosable irritations continuously to your conscious mind and turn you into a more easily-provoked, hastily-acting person, particularly when confronted with an exasperating situation.
The resulting digestion tension "nails" you to the "vagaries" of your stomach. It also overtones the muscles attached to your 5-6-7-8 dorsal vertebrae (or the vertebrae in the middle portion of your back) and ruins the flexibility of those vertebral joints.
Use the secret Yoga mov-asana The Splanchnic Double-Curl to relieve this digestion tension in you—and restore the lost acuity of your mind. Here is how to do it. (Follow Figure 31.)
The position to assume (Figure 31 A)
1. Stand straight, with heels about 1 Vz feet apart, and toes pointing normally slightly outwards.
2. Raise your arms above your head and clasp your hands together. How to do the First Curl of this Yoga mov-asana (Figure 3 IB)

How Linda H. Ended Her After-Meal Upsets
Linda H. had developed an "allergy" to the dinner table. No matter how hungry she felt, the prospect of eating a meal threw her into near panic. Her food didn't "settle well" in her. Instead of feeling better after eating, she felt bloated, sluggish, belched easily, and was heavy in the right side, even headachy. Thorough clinical tests found nothing organically wrong with her, except that her digestion was very sensitive.
I taught Linda The Splanchnic Double-Curl. Although she noted little change at first, in a month she enjoyed her meals more and more, and her digestion was less sensitive. She was losing her dread of the dinner table and the consequent discomfort that followed it. Her waistline, meanwhile, was being drawn in and flattened. Her middle back, too, was acquiring beautiful contours.
A few weeks later Linda confessed that at last she was enjoying eating without after-meal upsets. She called it a miracle.
Caution: Do no abdominal mov-asana less than 2 l A hours after a light meal (fruit and salad), or less than 3 hours after a heavy meal.
Secrets to Avoid Kidney Infection
Next to your brain and your heart, your kidneys are the most important organs you have. When they start malfunctioning you feel tired, your blood pressure rises, your appetite departs, your sleep lessens, your legs twitch, your skin bruises more easily, and headaches come. You feel listless, and might even vomit in the morning. Taking large doses of vitamin C for colds, besides masking early signs of liver trouble, can curse you with kidney stones. Even a strep throat, if not cleared up quickly, causes your body to release antibodies to attack the germs, and these can also attack your kidneys and cause them to break down. Even cavities in your teeth can cause your kidneys to break down, for when you "chew" on the cavities, you can push bacteria through them into your bloodstream and bring on kidney inflammation.
Your customary daily diet may be injurious, leading to inflammation of your intestines (enteritis) and thus contribute to kidney infection. This, in turn, could produce more irritation to your kidneys from the toxic substances and bacteria which are absorbed in increased amounts from your disordered intestines. Insufficient daily intake of plain water adds further to your misery by permitting the constant presence of certain salts in your urine, like oxalates, which might even cause kidney stones. The foods you eat, usually containing sugar, could even bring on a state in you similar to the sugar in the blood in diabetes and irritate your kidneys still further. Even if you are so little sickened in this manner that your condition eludes diagnosis, you still suffer from loss of vitality.
It is wise, then, to eat balanced meals with plenty of fruits and vegetables. Erroneously-called "acid" fruits, like pineapples, oranges and grapefruits, as stated previously, actually alkalize your stomach to an alkaline state. Eat no more than six ounces of meat a day. Avoid all tea, coffee, liquors, and artificial stimulants. But drink from six to eight glasses of plain water a day, in addition to your meal-time liquids. Avoid fatty foods, like bacon, cocoanuts, Brazil nuts, ham, too much pork.
Fluids a Yogi Uses for Kidney Stones
I taught this program to my followers and published it early in the
1950's. Twenty years later, in 1974, Dr. Ruben Gittes, professor and head of the Urology Division of the University of California at San Diego, revealed at the American College of Surgeons Clinical Congress that people prone to kidney stones should drink at least eight glasses of water—or drinks containing water—every day. Dr. Birdwell Finlayson, professor of urological surgery at the University of Florida, agreed with him. Dr. Gittes called nonsense the "very rigid diet on which some doctors*' put their patients, telling them not to eat a long h- of foods, ranging from pancakes, certain fruits, seafood, pea soup, molasses, and many vegetables. "Drinking water is the really important thing," he declared. His views differed from mine, though, by accepting soft drinks, tea, or even beer in place of water.
He advises against consuming dairy products containing lactose, such as milk and cheese, because lactose promotes calcium absorption, and both doctors agree that too much calcium in the blood causes kidney stones. My own researches do not support milk as a cause of kidney stone. But I advise you, if you have "bad" kidneys, not to eat too much food containing oxalic or phytic acid. Such foods, in excess, could cause kidney stones. Among these are prunes, tomatoes, rhubarb, spinach, cereals, and beans. A Mexican scientist even added beets and celery to the list. Foods that contain the most calcium, ironically, also contain oxalic or phytic acid. Orange and grapefruit and grapefruit juice are known, by the Yogis, to dissolve kidney stone.
Note: But see your doctor or healer first, of course, because in certain types of "bad" kidneys, the water cannot filter through the kidney. You would have to abstain from liquids then.
The Secret Yogi Practice, Made Scientific, to Discourage an Acid Stomach
To discourage an acid stomach is not easy. But the Yogis were excellent at doing so, particularly with their power of mind-over-matter. The American Medical Association upholds them with its discoveries that people with peptic ulcers are helped almost as much by placebos (sugar-coated, non-medical pills) as by popular calcium carbonate antacids.
But the Yogis don't always combat stomach upsets with their minds alone. They add a ritual to the process. My medical ancestors refined this ritual into a science and used it successfully in their practice.
This is the Yogi secret, made scientific. When you suffer from stomach trouble:
1. Eat nothing for a whole day.
2. Take two enemas that day. Take one upon arising, and the other late in
the afternoon. Lie on your back when taking them, with your knees bent close up to your chest. Massage your abdomen thoroughly to percolate the enema water as high as possible into your three colons. Retain each of the two enemas as long as possible before letting them out.
3. Drink, that day, two or three glasses of water every hour.
4. Rest for hours lying on your left side, with a moist heating pad against your abdomen. It relaxes your acid-contracted abdominal muscles and your pyloric valve (the valve which shuts off the farther end of your stomach and keeps the undigested food in it). The water you drank will drain out of your stomach through your pyloric valve and carry your excessive gastric acids into your small intestines and leave your stomach neutralized.
5. As you rest on your left side, visualize all these scenes occurring. Visualize the farther end of your stomach (your pyloric valve) opening, and the water you drank washing all the acid in your stomach out of it. Visualize this water streaming through your intestines and colon. . . flooding your rectum. . . being evacuated from it and leaving your stomach and your alimentary canal clean and no longer acidic. Visualize all this so clearly that you get the "feeling" in your brain. The "feeling" will release its own brain waves all through you and encourage still more complete evacuation. You will be adding the power of mind-over-matter to your evacuation, and the enema will prove to be far more effective, as the American Medical Association found to be the case with placebos.
6. By next day you will feel "miraculously" better.
A Yoga Visceral Controller That Soothes an Acid Stomach Quickly
Your digestive system is strongly under the control of your emotions. "Heartburn" is brought on by hyperacidity of your stomach, and among its causes are excitement, emotion, certain foods, drinking certain liquors, or smoking certain brands of tobacco. Whatever the cause of your "bad" stomach, it triggers your sympathetic nervous system into action. Your brain, as a result, throws out brain waves of anxiety which stimulate your fear-sympathetics to slow down your digestion. When, like the Yogis, you control your emotions, you are closer to insuring yourself a healthy stomach. The Yoga mov-asana to achieve that is Your Visceral Brain Wave Controller. Here is how to do it. (No figure is necessary).
The position to assume
1. Take a sheet of newspaper which would require, say, ten minutes to read. But
2. Allow yourself only seven or eight minutes to read it.
3. You doubt whether you can read it in time, so you determine to rush through it.
4. This decision fills you with tension. Your sympathetic nervous system is triggered and your digestion slowed.
5. Your brain responds by creating the brain waves of tension. How to do this Yoga mov-asana.
6. Hold the sheet of newspaper before you again and assure yourself that you WILL read it in time. Tell yourself that you will peruse it at a normal pace, but that you will waste no time while doing it.
7. And yet, should you fail to read it in time, you won't care\
8. Start to read the newspaper with this attitude. Don't race against time, just read normally. Try to understand all you read that you consider important. But pass by the seemingly unimportant details. Watch the clock, but don't grow alarmed if your pace lags behind it.
9. Don't skim over insignificant facts, though. Nothing tenses you more than skimming over what you wish to understand clearly, but hurriedly. It routs your brain waves of calm.
10. After reading in that manner for about five minutes, your brain will be discharging your natural brain wave of concentrating without tension.
11. Under the influence of your natural brain wave , the secretion of your gastric (digestive) juices returns to normal.
12. This natural brain wave is your visceral brain wave controller. It is the brain wave which controls all your visceral organs and keeps them healthy, providing that you don't abuse them with improper eating and living habits.
13. Fifteen minutes later try to feel exactly as you felt when doing number 12, or with y'our natural brain wave. Practice getting that feeling several times during the day, so that you can feel that way at will.
14. To retain normal digestion, feel like that every time you eat, and after you eat. You will create Your Visceral Brain Wave Controller, and your stomach will remain healthy year after year.
How Andrew B. Conquered His Stomach Upsets
Andrew B. belched noticeably after eating, and suffered, even while still eating, from crawling headaches. They commenced at the left side of his head and climbed upward, along where he parted his hair. He also experienced annoying, creeping sensations around his temples. They were unpleasant and bewildered him. His doctor told him that he had a very sensitive stomach, either innately or acquired through his diet or his life habits.
I taught Andrew His Visceral Brain Wave Controller. He could have acquired his sensitive stomach, as I had long ago discovered, from habitually overconcentrating with his mind on "everything" he did.
His Visceral Brain Wave Controller mov-asana was so different from what Andrew had expected of Yoga that he didn't believe me at first. He tried it, nonetheless. After doing it for five minutes, though, he was already aware that he was mentally concentrating without tension. His brain, in other words, was discharging his natural brain wave, and the secretions of his gastric (digestive) juices were returning to normal!
Andrew's natural brain wave was his visceral brain-wave controller. It controlled all of his visceral organs and kept them healthy, providing that he didn't abuse them with improper eating and living habits.
Andrew practiced to bring back his natural brain wave every time he ate—as well as after he ate. He gradually stopped belching after meals and, before long, his crawling headaches disappeared.
Overcoming Constipation Without Drugs (11 Secrets)
The long sitting postures of the Yogis contribute immensely to constipation. The hour-after-hour sessions of sitting with their hips flattened against the ground slows down abnormally the blood flow through their pelvis and solidifies the fecal matter drifting into their rectums. Here are the unfailing Yogi tricks to bring your constipation under your control:
1. The Yogis keep regular hours, and it helps them with their bowels. To train your own bowels to be regular, you have to urge them to move at approximately the same time every day. That alone, though, won't end your constipation.
2. You have to exercise (or contract) your abdominal muscles regularly. They initiate your peristaltic wave to drive the wastes in your alimentary tract along, through your colons, to your rectum for evacuation.
3. You have to eat food that contains bowel-moving roughage. Fruits and vegetables contain it. One scientific authority believes that the roughage of fruits and vegetables is not enough. 1 You also need, he insists, the roughage of cereals and whole grain wheat. Although I don't disagree with him entirely, too much cereal also tends to fatten your waist and ruin your figure. A couple mouthfuls of cereal a day is all you can afford to take and still retain your figure without dieting or exercising hard.
A more effective way which my medical and Yogi ancestors found, is to eat two different roughage-containing raw fruits, like oranges and apples, or oranges and pineapples, at the same meal. If one such food alone doesn't move your bowels regularly, two of them, eaten at the same meal, seem to trigger your
bowels into action, and with regularity. Of all the natural roughages, indeed, we have found that the white of the orange skin is the most effective for bowel movement. Peel off thinly the yellow skin of the orange and leave on most of the white. Eject the seeds from the center of the orange, where they are massed. Drop the remainder of the orange in a fruit juicer or food grinder and let it chop up the white of the orange fine enough not to require too much mastication. You will be amazed at how effectively it will bring your constipation under control.
Caution: Eating plain oranges (even if ground up or finely chopped) sensitizes your teeth and attacks their enamel. Eat oranges with a banana and drink their juice through a straw.
4. Do Your Appetite Controller, page 53, to crush the fecal matter within your lower intestine. This Yoga mov-asana will fracture the fecal matter into smaller masses, so that it will resist much less the rectum-ward push of your peristaltic waves (the wave-like contractions of your alimentary tract which pulsate from your stomach to your rectum). Eat nothing between meals, or the mov-asana will trigger your peristaltic waves into action before there is enough waste matter in your lower colon for a full evacuation.
5. Eat very little of soft, white flour products. These foods create "brick hard" bowels. And drink from six to eight glasses of water a day to help your alimentary tract form fecal matter moist enough to be easily thrust rectal-ward by your peristaltic waves. (This is plus your food-time liquids.)
6. Avoid laxatives. Resort to enemas but once in several months, or longer, if you have to. Train your bowels to evacuate naturally, without artificial help. Never force them, or you will encourage them to form hemorrhoids.
7. At "breakfast make it a practice to eat silently, if you expect your bowels to move shortly after you leave the table. Due to your interest in the conversation your taste glands will lose their intimate connection with your peristaltic wave and fail to trigger it into action. This is an important prerequisite to follow for successful, daily, after-breakfast bowel movement! The same rule applies to any regular bowel movement period you have trained yourself into.
8. Gas-producing foods, like figs, or even fig cookies, also stimulate regular bowel movements in you. Upon arising after a night's sleep, take one and one-half glasses of very warm water. Follow it, if your bowels are very obstinate, with sets of Your Appetite Controller, page 53, to force the walls of your stomach to try to compress the water. And since water is non-compressible, your stomach walls will be "stretched" instead and will burst into peristaltic waves in the attempt to compress the water.
9. Keep regular hours as much as possible to train your peristaltic waves to contract and dilate all the way down your alimentary canal at approximately the same time every day and synchronize with your biological clock.
10. Avoid long periods of sitting, whenever possible. If you cannot help it, try to be on your feet, or walk if you can, from seven to ten minutes every hour. If you have enough privacy, squeeze or massage your hips with your hands for at least two minutes at that time, to stimulate their circulation back to normal. This
applies equally when you are at home watching television, working at your hobby, or enjoying social life.
11. Except from during late afternoon until bedtime, don't let more than one and one-half hours elapse between your drinking water during the day (not counting meal time). Portions of your bowel matter, otherwise, will turn so hard and dry that they will form fecal plugs and constipate you, partially at least.
By faithfully observing these 11 simple but unfailing rules, you will swiftly bring your frustrating constipation under control. . . and without drugs.
A Simple Activity That Guarantees Regular Elimination, The Quadrops Yoga Mov-asana

The position to assume (Figure 32A)
1 . Bend knees and place hands on floor. How to do this Yoga mov-asana (Figure 32B)
2. Move hands far enough forward to gradually straighten your knees.
3. Walk across room on hands and feet, like an ape. With each step try to draw your feet closer to your hands. (Remember to do so gradually.)
4. Your waist will draw in so tightly that it will feel as if cramped. Visualize in that feeling your adrenal glands being crushed in your stomach (even though they are in your lower back).
5. Stand up again. All your rancor against the world will have vanished, and your circadian rhythms will alter to conform to your new self. When you face anyone with this frame of mind, his (or her) own circadian rhythms will alter to coincide with yours, and his (or her) own adrenals will be suppressed. He (or she) will consider you his most needed tranquilizer.
Frequency: 1 repetition. 1 set. 5 times a week.

How Alma T. Threw off Her Burden of Irregularity
For over 20 years Alma T. had been plagued with stubborn bowels. She had tried laxatives, enemas regularly, jogging, swimming and other exigencies. She had quit laxatives because she feared becoming an addict. But the other "things" worked too irregularly. Alma needed something more reliable to add to her food roughage and her fruits and vegetables.
I urged her to add a tablespoon of cereal to her diet, and to reduce it to half after several weeks. I also taught her The Quadrops mov-asana. It flattened her waist so firmly against the dry waste matter obstructing her lower colon that it broke it up for peristaltic response. When she stood erect, after The Quadrops position, her waistline felt as if drawn in by a girdle.
Next morning Alma's bowels moved easier than they had for some time. Within two weeks she forgot that she had even been constipated. Her waist was girlish now, too. Her desperate dream had come true.
Eliminating the Causes of Hemorrhoids
Since the Yogis sit for long periods of time, their buttocks are
flattened by the hard ground, threatening them with constipation—and hemorrhoids. But they know how to combat these afflictions. My medical ancestors and I used these Yoga secrets on large numbers of people and enjoyed miraculous success with them. This is a simple Yogi way to eliminate hemorrhoids:
1. Peel a clove of garlic of about the length and thickness of the first third of your little finger. Scrape the sides of it with a sharp knife to expose its moisture. Spread your rectum open and insert most of the shaved garlic into it. Draw it out after from three to four seconds, no longer.
Within a half minute or less you will feel a "burning" within your rectum. Its mucous membrane lining is being constricted, and the hemorrhoidal vein in it is being shrunk.
Repeat this procedure for about three nights, just before going to bed. Repeat it more times if you have to, but most of the time one repetition is sufficient. Within a few days, even if you do it only once, you will note a decided difference in the size of the hemorrhoidal vein protrusion. It will soon disappear. Should it ever return, repeat the procedure.
A Wise Diet to Help Diminish Your Risks from Insecticides in Your Foods
In the laboratory, flooding the target cells of your body (say, your liver) with a diet supplemented with methionine, cystine, or casein, which can react with the insecticide AAF, will reduce the possibilities of your getting tumors from insecticides. (Discovered by James A. Miller and Elizabeth C. Miller of the McArdle Laboratory and confirmed by other scientists.) Methionine is found in whole egg, egg white, meat, fish, corn, casein, and wheat. Cystine is found in egg white and whole egg. Flooding the target cells of your body on weekends, in addition, with garlic helps avoid cancer because several sets of oxidizing enzymes are in greater concentration in your liver and kidneys than in the rest of your body. These enzymes, it is true, detoxify and dispose of foreign chemicals in your body. But they also activate the carcinogen (cancer-forming product). Flooding your body with chemicals that can react with the ultimate cancer-forming product will inhibit the reaction of the cancer-forming product within your cells. Garlic is an ideal chemical compound for achieving this because it can "donate" a methyl compound to the cancer-forming product (the carcinogen) either from the nitrogen or the sulphur atom in its molecule. So, eat regularly of the methionine and cystine containing foods during the week, but also include garlic in from
one to three of your weekend meals. That is a wise diet to help diminish your cancer risks from insecticides in your food.
The Only Food to Keep Your Stomach Healthy Between Meals
Many different "light" foods and drinks are recommended to be taken between meals to keep up your strength, to prevent you from getting hungry, and the like. Even certain vitamins are taken between meals. Nearly 200 years of professional practice by my ancestors, plus my own lifetime of engaging in trials and experiments and my years of professional studies in medicine, dentistry, and chiropractic, have convinced me, without any element of a doubt, that the only between-meals food which keeps your stomach healthy is water. 2 Any other food stimulates a degree of digestion in your stomach between meals and brings on stomach acidity, and eventually stomach trouble. Even fruit juices stimulate digestion.
So, as soon as you feel hungry between meals, drink a glass, or a glass and one-half (if you feel very thirsty) of water. It will fill your stomach and vanquish the hunger. When you feel hungry again, drink more water. Do so until one hour before your next meal. (Eat three meals a day, unless your doctor or healer specifies otherwise). Try to drink water every hour, starting one and one-half hours after breakfast and lunch. But drink none for an hour before lunch and supper. And drink less water in the afternoon, and none after supper, so as not to have to frequent the urinal more than once or so after going to bed. You will be amazed at how different your stomach will soon feel.
Yoga Ways to Steer Clear of Diabetes
Diabetes is a particularly dangerous affliction because of its possible adverse complications. Among them are premature cataracts and possible hardening of the arteries. There is also a high incidence of kidney infection, and the lens of the eye swells, leading to its destruction. Certain proteins thicken and clog the filtering system of your kidneys and lead to uremia (or to backed up poison in your urine), a common cause of kidney death. The clogging is due to your high blood sugar and to your deficiency of insulin to absorb it out of your blood.
To steer clear of diabetes you should not often eat foods containing much sugar. You overwork your pancreas otherwise, until its insulin-producing glands wear out in exhaustion and can no longer synthesize
enough of it to reduce the sugar content of your urine to normal. You should not go on fasts, either, or the insulin-producing glands of your pancreas (the Islands of Langerhans) will atrophy eventually from lack of enough use. 3
Be pancreas-conscious , in other words. Eating sweets between meals, or gobbling down desserts at the end of your meal, or pouring too much sugar into, or on, whatever you drink at mealtime (or at any time), or indulging too regularly in candies, pastries, and other too-sweet foods, can lead to diabetes. To help you escape it, also do Your Appetite Controller (page 53), Your Diurnal Swing-Ho (page 85), and The Splanchnic Double Curl (page 162).
Yoga Secrets to Avoid Many Serious Diseases, Including Cancer of the Stomach, Intestines, Colon and Rectum
To possess an hourglass figure you have to eat small meals with little bulk. But such a diet, as I taught and published as early as 1954 4 , and repeated in print in 1969 5 , slows down the speed of the transit of your digesting food through your alimentary tract, thereby contributing to constipation, hemorrhoids, and other related digestive ills. Science made this same discovery 20 years later. 6 Added to the list of ills are, in fact, among others, cancer of the colon or rectum, intestinal polyps (a type of benign growth), diverticular diseases, and heart disease. Permitting food wastes to stagnate too long in the alimentary tract, in brief, is truly dangerous. My students and readers who followed my 1954 Yoga secrets discovery (and diet), greatly minimized (if not got rid of) their perils of falling victim to such tragic maladies. People who did not learn about it until 1974 from science, risked joining (and many probably did join) the alarming percentage of the population who suffer from such killers today.
Science's suggested "important defense" against these death-dealing illnesses is to add bulk (fiber) to your diet. . . or exactly what I myself prescribed in my Solar Diet 20 years before. Today's science, also as I did 20 years before, recommends for bulk vegetables and fruits, such as: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cabbage, beets, carrots, sweet potatoes, berries, tomatoes, eggplant, summer squash. I go even further, like the Yogis, and recommend turnips, apples, and oranges eaten together with the whites of the oranges unpeeled, 7 cauliflower, endive, beans, pineapple, mangoes, papaya, and many other tropical, sub-tropical, and temperate foods.
Science, too, agrees now with my statement of 1954 8 that cereal is
very effective against these sicknesses. Science, in fact, considers cereal the most effective of all the bulk foods. 9 But I insist that the starch in cereal will add too much weight to your body, unless you consume no more than a heaping teaspoonful (at most) of it a day. (Science will prove me to be right again, as it has done so frequently.) Science, indeed, recommends bran, particularly after it is separated from the cereal. 10 But, 20 years ago I already warned against eating separated bran. I pointed out that it scrubbed too drastically the lining of the alimentary tract, and urged my students and readers to eat only the foods which still had the bran on them, such as whole grains. I repeat the warning, 20 years later and predict that science, once more, will discover me to be again correct. Separated bran, I insist, can lead to stomach ulcers, as well as to cancer of the colon—and possibly of the rectum. Bran also dehydrates your system, over-thickening your blood and straining your kidneys. Food with bulk, nonetheless, is a sure way to avoid many serious diseases (including cancer) of the stomach, intestines, colon, and rectum, and also appendicitis, polyps, and diverticulosis.
Another important reason against too much cereal is that it contains too much phytic acid. Like oxalic acid (found in prunes, cranberries, tomatoes, rhubarb, and spinach), it robs your bones of calcium, which can cause them to soften as you grow older, and the excreted phytic salt can irritate your bladder and perhaps eventually cause cystic cancer. Except for the cereal, your bulky foods should be eaten raw, that is, shredded, grated, or ground (grain). If cooked, the bulk food will also constipate you.
The Secret Right-Size of a Healthy Waistline
The common belief in the West is that the healthy waistline is that of the hourglass figure. For thousands of years the Yogis have known better. When you eat a filling meal (skimpy meals are de-energizing and constipating) containing sufficient bulk food, your waistline won't look as small until the food is digested as when you eat unhealthy, cancer-forming small meals with little bulk. Bulk retains water as it passes through your digestive tract. It thereby prevents your bowels from forming hard, dry masses that constipate you, transit slowly through you, irritate the lining of your digestive tract and threaten it with ulcers or cancer. Bulk also creates a certain quantity of gas which stimulates your peristaltic wave to drive your food onwards. But the retained water and the gas add volume to the digesting mass in your stomach and intestines and distend your waistline from one to two inches more than when you eat
food with little bulk. The size of your waistline then, however, is your healthy, right-sized waistline for from two to three hours following the meal.
Should you constrict it with a tight belt, girdle, or any other kind of clothing to retain your smallest waist measurement after a healthy meal with bulk-food, you bring on indigestion, ruin your liver and pancreas, and burden your heart by forcing the gas created by your bulk-food up against it. Cramped for room, your crowded heart is compelled to pump more vigorously and strain itself unnecessarily. Drinking water between meals, too, as you are directed to in another section, keeps your waistline regularly distended another inch or so. But your stomach and intestines are intended to digest your food and replenish your lost energy. They are not expected to remain flat and half-empty all day, so you can "appear" always wasp-waisted at the risk of developing cancer as you grow older. They are supposed to expand, like an animal after it eats.
Your waist will still look its normal size once your stomach is empty again, an hour or more before your next meal. The rest of the time, though, it will be providing you with the energy and enthusiasm of youth.
If you are a man, for that reason, stop wearing unhealthy, liver-strangling belts and change to suspenders. If you are a woman, stop wearing girdles or other garments which fit your torso like straight-jackets and impede its freedom of movement. Liberate yourself from the tortures of styles which only cripple you and speed you to an early grave. That is an important Yoga secret for extraordinary health and a long life. Adopt it, as the Yogis did.

How Yoga Renews Sexual Attractiveness
How You Lose Your Sexual Attractiveness
Those who cannot control their sex drives and habitually pursue different prospects for sex, or even their mates for excessive sex, become no better—or worse—than chronic masturbators. The only difference is that the chronic masturbator lacks the social boldness to convert his sex fantasies into realities.
Sex partners who cannot control their drives also tend to squander their prime time and energy in an activity which promises no permanent value or long-lasting return. Once they reach the climax, their ecstacy is over, and the post-coital conversation degenerates into monotony or hypocrisy. Each partner then feels that the conquest has been achieved. It is time now to clean up the used parts and return to reality.
Anyone who is a chronic masturbator or an abnormal sex-chaser regularly wastes his physical voltage and keeps his physical and mental vitality under par. Whether you are male or female, you can learn the Yoga secret to stop wasting your physical voltage and acquire the sex energy of the superman and the bewitching pull of the desired woman.
How a Yoga Secret Stops Wasting Your Physical Voltage
Of course most Yogis left sex behind as they withdrew from the material world. Certain of them, however, employed a well-guarded secret to multiply their sex energies without vitamins, hormones, or other artificial means. The Yogis who rejoined the material world discovered that this secret increased their physical voltage, giving them more mas-
179
sive erections, multiplying their copulation time, and providing them with a natural method of birth control. This secret freed these Yogis from sexual enslavement by others and helped them retain their sexual energies so that they suffered comparatively little after-sex fatigue.
The simple explanation of this secret I base upon the extensive knowledge and professional investigation of my medical ancestors, plus my own experience in chiropractic. Your pubic hair, whether you are a man or a woman, multiplies genital heat (crotch or pelvic heat). The multiplied heat can overexcite sex glands because it penetrates deep into their adjoining tissues. It can convert a controlled individual into a sexual-activity slave or a masturbation addict, draining off nerve-electricity.
To protect yourself against this wasteful sapping of your physical voltage, shave off your pubic hair once a month! You will be TRULY LIBERATED then! You will be released from the insatiable sexual mania which may leave your nerve endings tender (particularly those of your thighs, so that your thighs suffer from sudden contractions or tics), your cheeks deeply hollowed, and yourself nervous, anxious, generally debilitated, and readily subject to fatigue (especially if you are a man). This insatiable sexual mania depletes your physical vitality, as well as your hidden mental and physical powers. Mystics and professional strong men conserve their semen-energy (semergy, see Yoga For Men Only 1 ) and convert themselves into supermen in performing miracles or in muscle power. They would become pulps of erectile tissue otherwise, with strained prostates and sponge-like minds and bodies.
Secret of Magic Sex Power #
Last but not least, as a sex aid for a man, shaving off pubic hairs permits sex organ to enlarge more during sexual intercourse. This is because no significant amount of crotch heat is drained off into his mate through interlocking pelvic hairs. When both partners have shaved their pubic hair, in addition, they can easily avoid falling victim to the mutually disappointing "quickie" orgasm. A man can delay orgasm for hours—or even prevent it altogether while his mate experiences several.
Yogis who rejoined the material world have maintained erections for eight hours of rather continuous copulation. They withdrew several times for short rests without ejaculation, and resumed a few minutes later with full potency. Two of them withheld debilitating orgasms for years, while triggering hundreds of them in their mates. The Yogi secret of fantastic sex-energy retention is an ideal natural method for birth control, besides, without the use of pills or contraceptives. It offends no religion and brings on no dangerous side effects.
If you fear cutting yourself while shaving your pubic hair, slip a comb through the hair and clip it off with a scissors, the way a barber cuts hair. But even if you shave it off, don't try to shave it clean to the skin. Leave a quarter-inch of hair; otherwise stubs from the opposite sides of your body could meet when you close your legs and itch you. But don't let the hair grow back longer than three-quarters of an inch, or it will multiply your genital (pelvic) heat. Keep your pubic region shaved close enough, and you will automatically increase your physical voltage and turn into a superman with fantastic sex-energy retention. You will be unsurpassed as a lover! If you are a woman, it will save you from being a passion slave at the mercy of false men.
An Optic Brain Wave That Results in Charming Eyes (No figure necessary.)
1. Sit in a chair, facing the mirror.
2. Imagine that your image is the person you want.
3. Recall vividly how you feel whenever you meet him (or her), whether on the street, in the office, on a date, or in any other situation. Then ask yourself honestly: Do you feel
(a) Frightened?
(b) Excited?
(c) Uncertain of yourself?
(d) Skeptical?
(e) Frustrated?
(f) Overeager?
(h) Disgusted and ashamed? (i) Bewildered?
4. However you feel, your brain will create its own natural brain waves to fit your own state of mind. You don't have to record these brain waves or test them on a biofeedback device to know what they are. Everybody's brain waves are different for the same emotion. In some people, alpha brain waves affect them like theta waves. In other people, theta brain waves affect them like alpha. There is no proven brain wave state measurement for everybody. The most accurate brain wave for you to adopt is the one you radiate during the very situation it is produced.
So, relive the situation that troubles you and note exactly how you feel during it.
5. Think, next, of how you would feel if you could draw to you the mate you want at a glance.
6. Practice this several times, until that new brain wave isyours. That is the right optic brain wave to excite instantly the person you want, because it will exude out of your eyes when you use it. And your eyes will turn enchanting at a glance.
How Yoga Renews Sexual Attractiveness
Recharging Yourself with Potency Through Oriental Hip Mov-asana
You can recharge yourself sexually for greater vim and potency with the Oriental Hip mov-asana. Here is how to do it. (Follow Figure 33.)
Figure 33 Oriental Hip Mov-asana
The position to assume (Figure 33 A)
1. Lie flat on your back on your bed or floor, with
2. Arms extended along your sides, or on your thighs.
How to do this Yoga mov-asana (Figures 33B,C,D)
3. Raise your head and try to see the floor between yovxfeet (Figure 33B).
4. Repeat three times. Then rest about one-half minute. Now,
5. Raise your head higher and try to see the floor between your knees (Figure 38C).
6. Also repeat this three times. Rest another one-half minute. Finally,
7. Raise your head very high and try to see the floor between your thighs (Figure 39D).
8. Also repeat this three times. That constitutes one set. Frequency: 2 sets. 3 or 4 times a week.
Figure 33, cont. What The Oriental Hip mov-asana does for you (Figure 33E)
1. Flattens the upper half of your waist, the "pork belly" part, which bulges easily.
2. Stimulates the vertebrae of your lower back (your 1-4 lumbars), and of the lower half of your neck (your 3-7 cervicals). Thus, it improves your uterus (if you are a woman), bladder, liver, diaphragm. If you are a man, it excites the sympathetics to your penis and your pudendal nerve, drawing more blood to the organ and more easily exciting an erection. By keeping your legs close together when doing it, too, it increases your crotch heat and recharges your potency even faster.
How To Contact Your Past Lives with The Oriental Hip mov-asana (No Figure)
1 . Lie in bed after completing the mov-asana and wish fervently to contact your last past life, or whichever past one you wish.
2. Feel your whole body "come together" into one microscopic bullet. Shoot this bullet into a sperm or ovum in your sex glands and let it saturate itself with it. Your sperm or ovum (egg) contains your genes, and your genes carry the inherited pattern of your past lives. Visualize yourself contacting the particular past life which you want to contact most. Different genes in your sperm or ovum inherit different lives from your different ancestors. If you contact the wrong one, your microscopic bullet will withdraw from it swiftly and shoot into another until it finds the right one. It might have to shoot into several different genes before it contacts the right one.
3. When it does you will feel so much at home in that past life that you will "separate" from your present one. Your physiological rhythm will alter to harmonize with it. With a little practice you will soon astonish yourself with your ability to contact any past life of yours that you want to. The secret is developed still more in the case history which follows.
How Marilyn D. Contacted a Past Life of Hers and Extracted Sex-Enslaving Secrets
Marilyn D. was deeply disappointed with her marriage. So was her husband, John. In desperation Marilyn read books about sex techniques and applied them in their love-making. John enjoyed the different ones at first, but soon wearied of them. They were too practiced and outright for him. Marilyn wondered whether some past female ancestor of hers had been a sexual bewitcher, and if she could appeal to her for help.
I taught Marilyn The Oriental Hip Mov-asana to recharge herself. It drew in her abdomen tightly and squeezed it into veritable nothingness. Marilyn released trapped gas and felt more limber at once. At the end of the sets she appeared noticeably trimmer already, felt lighter around the waist, and lost much of the discomfort in her right side.
After doing it for two weeks and beautifying her waist and breasts remarkably, Marilyn tried to contact a past life of hers in which she might have had a sexual bewitcher as a close relative. She felt her whole body turn into a microscopic bullet, and after several minutes of shooting different ovums in her ovary, she felt it enter one which "separated" her from her present existence. Her physiological rhythms blended with it, and she completely forgot her present existence and lived in her past one.
Before Marilyn's very eyes, it seemed, an enchantress appeared who bore a distant resemblance to her aunt. The enchantress spoke to her like an interested sister and confided to her amazing secrets of how to fascinate men.
When Marilyn "returned to earth" she was an entirely different
person romantically. Her husband was blindly smitten with her. Over the months he showered her with presents and took her, as "rewards," to one thrilling vacation spot after another.
The Remarkable Effects of Yoga Knee Bends on Sex Energy
The Torso Push (page 36), The Sacro-Stretch (page 201), and Your Easy Hip Trimmer (page 58) bring considerable amounts of blood to your pelvic region to supply the muscles of your thighs and hips. Like all your skeletal muscles, the blood supply to your thighs and hips is augmented by your sympathetic nervous system. This same nervous system supplies your ovaries (if you are a woman) or your testicles (if you are a man). Since your ovaries or testicles are also located in your pelvic area, they, too, are unusually supplied with blood when you do these mov-asanas, and their sex-energy production is increased. When you do these mov-asanas with enough regularity, your sex glands are increased regularly and permanently. That's why Yoga knee bends exert remarkable effects on your sex-energy.
Increasing Your Sex Appeal with Yoga Mov-asanas
The Pectoral 90 Yoga mov-asana is the well-guarded Yoga secret for giving you fantastic sex appeal. Here is how to do it (Follow Figure 34.)
The position to assume (Figure 34A)
1. Stand close to a table, bedstead, sink, or anything strong enough to resist your push,
2. Feet normally hip-width (about 8 inches) apart. Don old gloves.
3. Cup fingers (palms forwards) against edge of table.
4. Use a very wide grip. Space each hand about 12 inches outside each shoulder.
How to do this Yoga mov-asana (Figure 34B)
1. Inhale deeply, straightening or arching your back. (Not shown).
2. Press hard with your fingers against the edge of the table.
3. Resist them with your body, mainly by locking your hips, knees, and spine, as much as necessary.
4. Continue pressing with your fingers until your body bends over completely against the resistance of your fingers. But,

5. As your body bends over, bend your knees slightly, and draw in your hips a little.
Frequency: 5 repetitions. 2 sets (groups of repetitions). 3 times a week. What The Pectoral 90 mov-asana does for you:
1. Proportions the fronts of your shoulders and erases the bony look. It is fantastic for this. (With full power, if you are a man, makes your shoulders massive. With medium force, if you are a woman, makes your shoulders elegant and girlish).
2. Proportions the fronts of your arms to restore your toned-up youthful look and erase the "droopy arm look" of middle age and older.*
♦Particularly if, during the simple movement, you keep your forearms nearly perpendicular to the table. With full strength, if you are a man, gives you enormous biceps. With medium force, if you are a woman, trims but firms your arms.
3. Draws in your waistline considerably when you bend your knees and draw in your hips.
4. Stimulates the vertebrae of your upper middle back (your 4-5 dorsals), and the one close to the base of your spine (your 4 lumbar). Your aorta and heart improve. The visceral spasms of the farther end of your stomach, and of your duodenum (small intestine) and lower bowel (colon) relax.
5. Alters your pessimistic outlook to an optimistic one.
How Orland B. Got the Girl He Wanted
Orland B. lived in virtual misery. He was insanely in love with a
"stunner," as he described her. But she wouldn't give him a tumble, he grieved. Suitors flocked around her, but he himself seemed to hold no fascination for her. He lacked the "psychological vigor," he added, to be a raving success at anything. He lacked the "energy of tongue," the "go-getting physiology," so he had lost interest in life.
I taught Orland The Pectoral 90. It tightened his abdominal muscles, drew in his waistline and relaxed the visceral spasms of the farther end of his stomach. The fronts of his shoulders and arms brimmed with power, leaving him feeling capable of attaining anything he wanted to.
Reflexly, it filled him with a body-mind vigor which he had never suspected he had. His tongue grew loose, and he itched to bring others under his control. His digestion improved remarkably, and his bowels moved much better.
His "stunner," he noticed, observed him now as if for the first time. Other women noticed him keenly, too! To Orland's amazement, even the "stunner" was competing for him! Since she was the one he wanted most of all, Orland lost no time going after her and making her his bride.
That wasn't all! His commissions, over the months, actually multiplied! And the more he made, the more his physiological vigor increased. Within two years, his commissions rose to an incredible $55,000 a year, and were still climbing strong.
The Yoga Way to Create Your Own "Private Tissue" Fountain of Youth
Climbing to the top in life, whether you are a man or a woman, is not dangerous to your heart. I preached this as early as the 1930's when it was universally believed (and is still believed by many die-hards) that the tension of rising in life will shorten your life by bringing on, or leaving you prone to, a heart attack. A number of scientific studies in the last few years, however, have found that heart attack is not greatly influenced by the tensions of getting ahead in business. 2 Many have blamed it more on body-build, smoking and eating habits, social and educational background. Executives, indeed, suffer less from heart attacks than others in business! Men who are promoted rapidly, either frequently or recently, as well as men who are transferred to new departments or new companies, have no added risk of heart attack!
Executives and college students, in fact, had fewer seizures than other employees! 3 The work stress on workers and non-college men, after all, is no less intense than for executives and college men. Workers and non-college workers deal with superiors, with noisy and dangerous
machinery, with countless hazards of common work, and with the constant threat of the job coming to an unexpected end. Being an executive with the authority to fire a worker is no more stressful!
To create your own "private tissue" fountain of youth, you have to enjoy your work. You have to lose the baseless terror of driving yourself to an early grave just because your goals are high, or because you might "over-exercise," or because you are "getting old." Even if your work is not what you prefer, make yourself enjoy it until it is changed.
DO NOT try to trim your weight down to the gaunt stage. Athletes do so to try to acquire eye-gripping definition of their muscles. With fad diets, women shrink to wasp-like narrowness at their waists. But in both instances, too much submucous fat is melted off the body and face, contributing to premature wrinkling and the loss of the youthful look.
Last but not least, stay composed in the midst of pressure, whether it is daily or long-term. Assume the will to live long and healthily, and do the Yoga mov-asanas regularly.

Yoga Secrets That Sharpen Your Mind
Unlocking Your Utmost Keenness of Mind
Your brain cells tire after two to four hours' use. They rest by daydreaming (responding to your inner stimuli) for one to two hours before regaining their energy to think effectively again (or to respond to your external stimuli). Your brain cells have alternations, in other words, which allow them to think, and then to shut off the noises of the world as they retire into daydreaming to digest your thoughts. That's why you seem to "grow dull" after long concentration. It is due to the circadian (daily) rhythms in the levels of important biochemicals (like epinephrine) in your brain.
To trigger your utmost keenness of mind, then, you have to control the secretion of epinephrine from your adrenal glands into your brain, so that your brain can remain at attention when it is time for it to grow dull. Your brain will then think at its best pace any time you want it to. A super-mind is primarily a "mistake-less" thinker. By making the fewest mistakes in its thinking, such a mind achieves the most for its efforts. It makes the fewest mistakes when it absorbs all the facts it is fed while at full attention, before retiring into itself, or into daydreaming, to digest them. The Yoga mov-asana to control the secretion of epinephrine from your adrenal glands into your brain and unlock your utmost keenness of mind, is Your Super-Mind Awakener. Here is how to do it. (Follow Figure 35.)

How Gilbert S. Suddenly Acquired a Miracle-like Mind
Gilbert S. wondered how /, with my mind alone, without even a "true" laboratory, could make scores of the most advanced psychic discoveries from one to 36 years ahead of the leading scientists behind the Iron Curtain, with all their mammoth resources. How I even plucked their exact scientific explanations out of my sleeping super-mind. 2
I taught Gilbert his Super-Mind Awakener. This was one of the most important super-genius stimulators I used when trying to "pluck" ideas far-ahead-of-my-time, out of my sleeping super-mind—a mind which everybody has.
When Gilbert tried it, fresh new blood flushed into his brain and washed away the stagnating old blood. At once his head felt clear and forceful. Its weariness was replaced by an indomitable eagerness to solve any problem, no matter how difficult. He leaped into the core of his problems and fearlessly cut a swath through them. To his own amaze-
ment, one solution after another which had totally eluded him before, dawned on him.
Gilbert retained that attitude for hours at first. Later, he retained it all day, and even after work. His mind was working like a miracle. Astounding opportunities for advancement opened to him which he had never dreamed of before.
A Yogi's Daily Psychic Power Trigger
Your pineal gland is located inside your head, close to the root of your nose. It is known as your psychic power gland. When you perform psychic feats you handle invisible forces and manifest them into form. But your hypothalamus, a nerve mass at the base of your brain, inhibits your pineal gland. So does stress. For your pineal gland, your psychic power gland, to function powerfully, you have to inhibit both your hypothalamus and your stress. To inhibit them you have to block all messages flashing from your brain, muscles, organs, and tissues to your hypothalamus. Although that is impossible, you can achieve it to a marked degree by super-tranquilizing yourself. Do so with the secret Yoga mov-asana, Your Daily ESP Trigger. This is how to do it. (Follow Figure 36.)
The position to assume (Figure 36A)
1. Write on a piece of paper the name of the person you want to win, or the goal you wish to achieve.
2. Lie on your bed without a pillow, flat on your back.
3. Place the piece of paper with the name or goal beneath your head.

4. The back of your head possesses eight times more nerve-electricity power than the front. Therefore,
5. Concentrate now on the piece of paper. Visualize clearly what you wrote on it. At the same time,
6. Press your head down hard upon the paper, and drive the full power of your nerve-electricity into it. Feel the muscles in the back of your neck turn firm (Figure 36B).
7. But hold the muscle contraction no longer than an instant.
8. Repeat. With each repetition, though, feel more and more nerve-electricity pour out of the back of your head into that paper, and visualize what

2. Flushes more blood (with feeding oxygen) into your brain.

4. Leaves you feeling as tranquilized as if self-hypnotized. All stress has left you, thus blocking off the intensity of the messages flashed from your brain, muscles, organs, and tissues to your hypothalamus. Your pineal gland, your psychic power gland, is freed to function powerfully.
5. If you do Your Daily ESP Trigger upon arising, already before you start out every day you will switch on your full psychic power potentials and convert yourself swiftly into the specific kind of person you wish to be that day.
6. When you face the world that day, drive that accumulated super-amount of nerve-electricity out of your head from any direction you wish, at the most appropriate time. Your psychic power will dart out of it and dominate the situation, and make your worthy dreams come true.

How Cleo R. Acquired Unusual Mental (Psychic) Power
Cleo R. was dissatisfied with the lines forming around her neck. She was not old enough to have them, she grieved; yet, they were deepening fast and spoiling her appearance.
I instructed Cleo to look straight ahead when she walked and keep her head up, instead of habitually staring at the ground, as if looking for coins. The village women of India walked with their heads straight for several miles a day, balancing loads on them. Their necks remained amazingly smooth.
Next, I taught Cleo Her Daily Morning ESP trigger. When she pressed the back of her head down upon the paper with each repetition, her neck muscles firmed and smoothed out the forming encircling wrinkles. It also helped Cleo walk with her head straight. As an extra reward, the mov-asana triggered unusual psychic power in her to project in any direction and dominate difficult daily situations with an ease she never dreamed possible. I accepted her for advanced psychic study.
How to Make Your Mind Seethe with Profitable Originality
Your emotions can accentuate or minimize the message of a hunch you get until it loses all resemblance to the original. If you are gripped with fear when you receive a practical hunch, your fear might fill you with too much caution to gain from it. If you are seized with anger, you might appraise the hunch with hostility and also fail to gain from it. Overcome this handicap and let the hunch permeate you and enable you to gain the most from it.
Your nervous system can be conditioned (taught new habits). Different life events may "teach" your blood vessels to constrict, or your pulse to race. The extent of this physiological learning in you also depends upon your biological time of day.
For you to "feel" something before it happens, then, you have to prevent your volcanic emotions from blinding you to the hunch at the time of day you receive it. You have to prevent them from throwing your circadian rhythms "out of beat" when they could be "in beat." The secret Yoga mov-asana to achieve this end is Your Emotion Ouster. This is how to do it. (Follow Figure 37.)
The Marvel of Your Emotion Ouster Mov-asana
The position to assume (Figures 37 A,B)
1 . Place two chairs together (Figure 37 A).
2. Stand about 15 inches from their seats, if you are around six feet tall. Stand closer if you are shorter, and farther away if you are taller.
3. Rest both hands close to the edge of the seats, with your fingers pointing towards the back of the chairs. Start with a wide grip, with each hand one inch beyond the width of its corresponding shoulder. (Wear protective gloves.)
4. Bend knees and drop body weight upon hands.
5. Keep forearms perpendicular to the chair seats, and
6. Bend body forward and downward, so that
7. Your elbows bend about halfway (at right angles). Keep them drawn inwards (or towards your body).
8. Reassume your positions in Numbers 2 and 3 once more. But, now, round your shoulders (turn them inwards, downwards and backwards) before resting your hands on the chair seats (Figure 37 C).

6. When you push up, your body rocks back a little on your toes (Figure 37 B).
Frequency: 5 repetitions. Each repetition 1 inch closer, until your hands are about 8 or 10 inches apart, depending upon your height and reach. 2-3 sets (groups of repetitions). 4 times a week.
What Your Emotion Ouster does for you (Figure 37 F)
1. Heightens markedly the lower portion of your chest muscles (or breasts). If you are a woman, with or without a brassiere, your breasts will stand up noticeably.
2. Your heavy "pressing" upon those chair seats with your hands and weight frees you of your volcanic emotions, and so you prevent them from blinding you to a hunch when you receive it.

How Yoga Powers Can Help You Take Charge in Emergencies
How Yoga Makes You Taller and Strengthens Your Leadership Abilities
Maintaining your height or getting taller makes you look more impressive. It also brings you your best health and longest life and makes you a much stronger leader. The Yogis have known that for thousands of years. The length of your legs does not change once you grow up, but the length of your spine shrinks continually afterwards. By shrinking, it compresses your spinal nerves, which pass through it. That reduces the blood supply to your whole body, from your neck down; weakens the intensity of the sensations your brain receives from your muscles and organs, and of the commands which your brain sends to them. Even if you live long with a shrunken spine, your reflexes are slower, your thinking is less keen, your energy is reduced, and your leadership abilities minimized. By keeping your spine stretched as tall as possible as you advance in years, you don't get "short" with time, and you retain your leadership abilities much longer—perhaps as much as 50 years longer, as do the Yogis.
With Yoga, though, you can even stretch yourself to a taller height than you were originally by straightening your spine still more—and even by stretching the thickness of the spinal discs between your vertebrae. All your mental and physiological functions are correspondingly improved magically, and your leadership abilities strengthened. The Yoga mov-asana to make you taller is The Sacro-Stretch. Here is how to do it. (Follow Figure 38.)

Figure 38 The Sacro-Stretch
The position to assume (Figure 38 A)
1. Stand straight against a wall or partition, with your arms relaxed at your sides.
How to do this Yoga mov-asana (Figure 38 B)
3. Raise your arms straight above your head, until the backs of your hands rest against the wall or partition.
4. Rise on your toes. At the same time,
5. Stretch your arms and try to "touch" the ceiling with your fingertips.
6. Stretch your back, too, to the utmost. (Your lower back, especially, will stretch, stimulating your fourth lumbar vertebra, or the vertebra near the base of your spine. The spinal nerve passing between it and your fifth lumbar vertebra below it, stimulates your genitals.)
7. Stretch your neck ceiling-ward. The middle portion of your neck, particularly, will stretch and stimulate the cervical ganglia (nerve cell mass) of the sympathetic nerves in your neck. These nerves, in turn, will stimulate your pituitary gland. Your pituitary gland (if you are a woman) produces hormones that trigger your ovary into action. But whether you are a man or a woman, they encourage your bones to grow, even if at a much more slower pace after passing maturity.
8. Exhale, lower your arms, and reassume your original position. Frequency: 10 repetitions every morning. 4-5 times a week.
What The Sacro-Stretch mov-asana does for you (Figure 38 C)
1. Expands your rib-box, bringing health to your lungs, and allowing more room for your heart. Your chest (or breasts) are elevated, as a result, and look impressively higher.
2. Increases your height.
3. Firms your sacrospinalis muscles: the muscles of the center of your lower back, which prevent it from sagging.
4. Draws in your waist and wears off fat from the front and sides of it.
5. Fills out the backs of your calves.
6. Fills your lungs and blood with more oxygen. Strengthens your ankles. Relieves the pressure of your vertebrae upon all your spinal nerves, which pass between them, thereby improving your body functions. Tones the extensor muscles of your body, from your neck down to your waist, and the flexor muscles from your waist to your toes, endowing you with the light carriage of youth (Not shown). Increase your sex vigor.
How Lester B. Changed His Whole Physical Aspect for the Better
Lester B. was disappointed with his general appearance. He was in his forties and resented the younger generation for being taller and more
streamline-built than he. "Maybe they eat better than I did, and have more leisure!" he sulked. "Just my luck to be born too soon!"
I taught Lester the Sacro-Stretch. In no time he "grew" a half inch, and was still "growing." But the mov-asana also streamlined his figure and made him look about one and one-fourth inches taller! It toned his extensor muscles and drew in his waist, endowing him with the light carriage of youth. Bursting with enthusiasm, Lester felt as if nearly three inches taller. He had reversed the years and joined the new generation in youth and appearance. He let his hair and sideburns grow longer to fit his new mood. To my own surprise, he fascinated and married a very attractive, wealthy young woman two inches taller than he. In the past she had seen him as being "too old" for her. Now she was smitten with his "youthful maturity."
Mind-Calming Effect of Yoga in a Crisis
A 1972 edition of Time magazine reported that "certain kinds of accident rates. . . are influenced by phases of the moon, solar cycles, and other natural phenomena." Scientists, in the same vein, doubt whether all natural phenomena follow strict and universally valid laws. Even your immunity to infection is rhythmic. You have periods of maximum strength or weakness, hours of greater endurance for nervous strain, hours of greater patience, keener perception, greater muscular strength, and even hours of better immunity. 1 It all proves that you are not always in the best state to avoid accidents. At certain times, which cannot easily be determined mathematically, you can avoid accidents more easily than at other times. The margin of escape between safety and accident is unbelievably minute.
The Clutch of Gravity on you is one of those important natural phenomena. Its incessant downward pull can dull your whole muscle-nerve coordination to the degree where you lose enough control over your muscles (even if only temporarily) to fall victim to an accident which you would have otherwise avoided. As a result, you may misjudge time, distance, or place-position. The Yoga mov-asana movement to help you through such an emergency and perhaps save your life is Your Rude Awakener. Here is how to do it. (Follow Figure 39.)
The position to assume (Figure 39 A)
1. Sit straight on a chair or stool with a hard seat.
2. Keep elbows hugging sides, and

3. Hold forearms parallel to the floor, palms down. How to do this Yoga mov-asana (Figure 39 B)
4. Round your shoulder and, at the same time,
5. Draw your bent arms suddenly backwards. Hold your back straight.
6. You will feel very firm in the lower part of your back (Figure 39 C-6). Frequency: 7 repetitions. 2 sets (groups of repetitions). 4-5 times a week.
What Your Rude Awakener does for you (Figure 39 C)
1. V-shapes the upper two-thirds of your back.
2. The sudden firming being at the center of your body, it reflexly stimulates the muscles above and below it. All your muscles, for that reason, are stimulated in part. As a result,
3. All the muscle centers in your brain are jolted awake. You are ready to meet emergencies better and avoid accidents.
How Nicholas D. Saved His Life with a Yoga Mov-asana
Nicholas D. was getting older, like everybody else, and his friends warned him that his reflexes were "slowing down." They cautioned him against doing one thing after another and told him that once he passed 65 he had to "take it easy." Nicholas was inclined to agree with them because he had suffered more accidents than usual in the last few years, even when riding his bicycle in the public park.
Since Nicholas was otherwise in good health, I taught him His Rude Awakener. The sudden firming at the center of his back sent a thrill up his spine and stimulated all his back muscles, up to his neck. It jolted awake the muscle centers in his brain. His mind felt clearer, and his muscles were more responsive to its commands. He felt more daring and more sure of himself. It was as if he had suddenly turned on the power switch to his reflexes.
In a few weeks Nicholas noticed that he handled his bicycle with far more dexterity. He was fortunate because that very day Nicholas turned the wheel just in time to avoid being knocked off his bicycle and perhaps crushed to death. Two months before, he swore, he could not have acted that swiftly. The mov-asana athletically shaped the upper two-thirds of his back. It had already made him look from ten to 15 years younger.
Three Yoga Secrets to Cheat Death and Live Decades Longer —and Healthy
With three simple Yoga secrets you can live healthily decades longer. You know them already, but the Yoga secrets reveal them to the utmost. Here they are:
1. Don't smoke. The Yogis have always opposed smoking. So did my medical and dental ancestors and I, although several in the family have been heavy chain-smokers, to the anger and disdain of the others. We insisted that the very act of smoking amounted to a suicidal attempt. Now a scientist (Levine) upholds us by showing a direct link between smoking and the conditions leading-to a heart attack. 1 The very smoking of one single cigarette, the researcher found, has a dramatic effect on your blood clotting. The very act of smoking, in other words, can cause your blood to clot and bring on a heart attack! Smoking, in addition, has been found to cause ulcers. 2 Those who smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day suffer strokes six times more often than do non-smokers.
Note: An investigator at the Harvard School of Public Health reported that cigarette smokers tend to have lower blood pressure, and that the blood pressure jumps when a smoker quits the habit. 3 He failed to explain, however, that tobacco smoking anesthetises your sympathetic nervous system, and that's how it slows down your heart and lowers your blood pressure. By doing so it also diminishes your energy and your daily efficiency. Should your heart suddenly be called upon to meet an emergency, it may not speed up enough to pump much needed blood into your muscles and brain.
2. If you are a man, don't try to lengthen your life with female sex hormones, like estrogen, and big doses of vitamin E. The Yogis opposed using anything from outside the body, except natural food, to better their health, except in emergencies. The female sex hormones, when used in men, have been found in a nationwide study to increase the incidence of cancer, particularly lung cancer. 4 Men using them also suffer more from blood clots. In my own researches I have found that such "drugs" increase the growth of the prostate in men, which could lead to prostate cancer
And whether you are a man or a woman, avoid "body-building drugs." Athletes, both men and women, often use them to achieve remarkable physical development and trim fat off their hips quickly. With them, muscle men may attain fantastic muscle bulk, and both men and women may perform at their greatest level in competition. These "body-building drugs" are the androgenic-anabolic steroids. They are given in large quantities in many sports nowadays. 5 Since 1954 (the beginning of their wide spread use) I opposed them vigorously and pleaded in vain with aspiring athletes and musclemen to bypass them. Nineteen years later, two of them died of cancer of the colon, a third became severely ill with cancer of the bladder, and a fourth has been hospitalized. Nineteen years later the scientists found that these products can severely harm the health and cause certain cancers. They can weaken the heart and shrink the testicles. Of course, you can attain faster and more striking physical results by adding such drugs to your diet than with the Yoga mov-asanas alone. But with the mov-asanas you can look stunning and still remain healthy all your life. With the "drugs" you can shine for a few years—but probably doom yourself to a comparatively early, terrible, lingering death. It is wiser to leave Nature alone, as the Yogis do. If your body is normal otherwise, put nothing "foreign" into it.
3. Don't drink. The Yogis abstained from all spirited drinks and liquors. So did my medical and dental ancestors, and so did I myself. An expert warns now that alcohol kills and disables more people each year than all other drugs combined! 6
Obey these three Yoga secrets religiously, and you will already cheat death in many different ways and live healthy for decades longer.
How to Prevent Your Brain Center from Building up a Heart Attack
Friedman, a major cardiologist, discovered 7 after 25 years' research that your heart attack is triggered by your brain. If you convert yourself into a hardworking, aggressive perfectionist who never asks for help, can't waste time, trying to succeed at everything you tackle and have no time to play, you are a Type A heart attack prone. If you are such a person, diet won't help you much the cardiologist insists, for at most, it can lower your cholesterol level only by a small fraction. You don't have to be a "worrier," besides, to trigger heart attacks with your brain. You just need to be a person who attacks the challenges of life.
If you are such a person, you can use that same driving brain of yours to defuse an oncoming attack. You can still attack life and work with determination to achieve your fondest dreams. But instead of letting your emotion brain center go off half-cocked with your single-mindedness, normalize it regularly, preferably every half hour or so, or whenever you feel tense. That will de-intensify the excessive stimulations of your fighting sympathetic nervous system on your heart and relax your tensing heart muscles. It will discourage heart attacks from building up in your system and defuse oncoming ones. Certain Yogis are masters at this skill and use it repeatedly to escape death and live remarkably long lives.
To avoid heart attacks, Dr. Friedman advises, "keep cool." 8 That's precisely what the Yogis do. They keep cool by withdrawing the aggressiveness from their sympathetic nervous systems at fixed intervals during their waking hours, and hence preventing the centers for their heart action in their brains from building up to dangerous tensions that can trigger heart attacks.
Defusing an Oncoming Heart Attack with an Appropriate Brain Wave
Another physician, Dr. William S. Kroger of Beverly Hills, California, contends that sexual frustration is often an indirect cause of heart
attack. If you are a man, for example, sexual frustration may result when your wife rejects you for'' impotency'' or for the lack of enough lovemak-ing skill. If you are a woman, it may result when your husband notices your lessening sex appeal. You are driven, as a result, to escape in overworking and fall victim to fatigue, putting you on the road to an early grave. Doctors from Boston University Medical Center, too, (according to The New England Journal of Medicine) advise you to skip your coffee break if you have a weak heart. Dr. Edward Terry Dawson, a staff cardiologist at the Long Island Jewish-Hinsdale Medical Center, at a meeting on "Sex and the Coronary Victim," asserts, though, that sex may be one of the best forms of exercise for heart patients. Speaking for the Yogis, I agree that certain mov-asanas (see Index) strengthen the heart of the heart patient. Adding sex to any kind of physical exercise, though, also adds intense glandular stimulation to the efforts and overworks your heart.
The Yogis prefer to defuse oncoming heart attacks with appropriate brain waves. Recently, several research studies by scientists have supported them; These studies have shown a definite link between brain wave patterns and impending heart attacks. One researcher, Dr. James Birren, director of the University of Southern California Gerontology Center in Los Angeles, found that there was as much blood flowing in a healthy man's brain at 73 as at 25. It was also found, however, that the older man had slower brain wave frequencies than younger men.
The secret Yoga mov-asana to defuse an oncoming heart attack with an appropriate brain wave is Your Brain-Wave Accelerator. Here is how to do it.
Your Brain-Wave Accelerator— for Saving Your Heart
1. Every half hour or so during your hectic day, suddenly drop your jaw. Simultaneously, relax the muscles in the backs of your shoulders (your trapezius muscles) by rotating your shoulders in full circles. Your jaw and shoulder muscles tense when your mind works intently. At such times you may find yourself biting on your teeth and feeling tight and uncomfortable in the backs of your shoulders. You are chewing up your "enemy," in other words.
Reflexly, your heart is ready to speed up and rush more blood to your fighting muscles. It is not a relaxed heart then. It is, instead, like a crouching cat, ready to spring into furious action. The tension of this suppressed waiting whips your heart muscle into a state in which it can literally go into a spasm. Even your brain waves could reveal this early sign of heart danger, for heart disease can cause your brain waves to slow down. It explains why older men have slower
brain wave frequencies than younger men (Birren). 9
2. To counteract the building up of this spasm tendency on your heart, to repeat, every half hour during your hectic day drop your jaw and rotate your shoulders in circles, for about ten seconds. By the end of the ten seconds the brain wave of your tensed heart will alter into that of your heart when it functions normally. This is the appropriate brain wave for you to use to defuse an oncoming heart attack in you. Practice a little and get the exact "feel" of this heart-relaxed brain wave. Be able to throw yourself into it instantly whenever you wish. With it you will postpone significantly your possibilities of suffering a heart attack by defusing it with this brain wave at once whenever you sense it coming on.
Note: I maintain, in fact, (and in the years to come, science will again uphold me and prove me to be far ahead of my time) that being a Type A heart attack prone type will not trigger a heart attack at all—if you engage faithfully in simple movements and scientific mov-asanas like those described in my books Somo-Psychic Power: Using Its Miracle Forces For a Fabulous New Life, Yoga For Men Only, or this very book. I have proof of that in myself and in others who did them. These exercises and mov-asanas normalize the tensions of my research and writing and keep me in top heart shape. 10 Being a so-called Type A *'heart attack" type of personality, indeed, is a tremendous help to achieve your goals. It increases your efficiency beyond measure. I will never alter myself into a different type of person, but will retain my remarkable heart with it and live up to between 125 and 250 years! Let's do it together!
The Yoga Secrets to Control Sciatic Trouble
Sciatic trouble usually indicates that the different bones in your hip-joint are not articulating with precision. Your sciatic nerve (one in each hip) passes between these bones, all the way from your spine down to your toes. When you suffer from sciatic trouble this nerve is pinched by your incorrectly-articulating hip-joint and causes a number of discomforts in you. They may range all the way from insufferable pain in that hip or inability to walk to numbness anywhere from your hips down to your toes. The purpose of this book is not to keep you from seeing your doctor, osteopath, or chiropractor when you suffer from any trouble. But it can show you how to prevent or heal trouble, such as in the following section. (Follow Figure 40.)
How to Prevent Sciatic Trouble
1. Don't run downhill. You only jolt your back at every down step, over-
How Yoga Powers Can Help You Take Charge in Emergencies
Figure 40 For Sciatic Trouble
compress the intervertebral discs in your back, and ram your femur (your thigh bone) into your hip-joint with arthritis-creating power.
2. Don't climb down from a too-high elevation upon one leg at a time, with your body straight and facing front. Go down nearly turning sideways, instead, and rest your weight on one hand first, such as by placing that hand upon the ground where you are standing (Figure 40 A). Then let one leg down upon the lower elevation, with your trunk leaning over your hands to ease the weight (Figure 40 A). In that way your descending leg carries little of your body weight on it. That prevents the jolting force of descending from ramming your thigh bone into your hip-joint and pushing one of the three closely-fitting bones that comprise it out of joint. Then lower your second leg to the same step as or level with the first.

Figure 40, cont.
3. Don't neglect climbing stairs every day, or climbing a hilly place if you are outdoors. It keeps the ligaments that bind your hip-joint strong. Once these ligaments weaken from lack of exercise or proper use, your hip-joint is easily subluxated (partially dislocated), causing you sciatic pain and incapacity. Climb the stairs by two's, and if you are tall, by three's. If you have no stairs, or if they are too short for a "good" climbing, and if you can't climb outdoors, do The Torso Push (page 37). Do this mov-asana, anywhere, to strengthen your hip-joints. Bicycling also strengthens them when you pedal in high gear, although it really seems to use your knees more than your hips. But to ride it daily might be inconvenient and unsafe after work. Jogging does not strengthen your hips enough because you don't have to bend your knees deeply for it. Sprinting, in that regard, is better, especially if you sprint up a hill.
4. Don't neglect these preventive measures. To suffer from hip-trouble, particularly as you advance in years, as occurs to so many people, is to condemn
yourself to the wheelchair during the last years of your life, or to stumble around on a cane, if you can. Weak hips can cause you to fall and break them and confine you to bed, thus threatening you with blood clots.
How to Help Overcome Sciatic Trouble
1. Do The Torso Push, (page 37) to strengthen and normalize the lengths of the overstretched ligaments around your afflicted hip-joint and keep the bones that comprise your hip-joint in place. Do one set several times a day when your stomach is empty, up to a total of 25 to 50 repetitions for a few days, to help prevent a recurrence of the subluxation (partial dislocation). Also observe these cautions:
2. Climb down stairs or down the edges of sidewalks on your "sciatic" side. Climb down gently, step-by-step, always leading with that bad leg (Figure 40 A) and on the flat of the whole foot.
3. Bring your ' 'good leg'' down to it at each step. (Follow Figure 40.) And keep the knee of your "sciatic" side straight, both when you are climbing down with that leg, and when you are bringing down the "good leg" to it.
That maneuver keeps your body weight off your "sciatic" joint and throws it, instead, upon the shaft of the straightened bone of that leg. Keep your "sciatic" joint fixed, in other words, to prevent it from being used until it heals.
4. When you climb up stairs or upon sidewalks, place the whole foot of your "sciatic" side upon the higher step, not just the ball of the foot (Figure 40 B).
5. Then rest your hands near the knee of that thigh and lean your weight forward on them.
6. Push up your body with the foot of your "good" side, and
7. Continue leaning forward (Figure 40 B) until
8. You bring that foot up to the foot of your "sciatic" side.
9. After doing The Torso Push (as you were instructed in Number 1 of this list) for your sciatic trouble, you might feel alarmingly stiff next morning and fear that you have gotten worse. This mov-asana will have stretched the facial (thick fibrous) sheaths surrounding your hips, and these are extensive. Stiffness should go that morning after three more sets of this mov-asana, or diminish so much that you feel like a totally different person. Continue doing Numbers 2 to 9 and you will be astonished at how speedily you continue freeing yourself from the condition. In three days or less it should be gone or be nearly gone so that you hardly remember it.
The Yoga Secret to Build Yourself up Fast
If you are a man you may want to enlarge your shoulders, chest,
arms, back, thighs, calves, and other muscles, fast. You may want to look and feel Herculean in your clothes and in a bathing suit, and stand out in the crowd. If you are young enough you may desire to compete in physique contests—and win. (In this, though, you are now also required to compete lifting weights to win, so you would have to practice with them, too.) If you are too thin or shapeless a woman, you may wish to fill out your breasts, round out your shoulders, and shape your legs—all in a hurry.
The Yogis have the answer. This is the procedure for you:
1. Find in the Index the part of your body which you want to enlarge fast. Do, particularly, the mov-asanas listed under arms, back, bulk, chest, neck-shoulder lines, shoulders, and thighs. (For thighs, still use both of them at the same time, but with three sets of repetitions, done strenuously.)
2. Turn to the page or pages indicated for the best mov-asana (or mov-asanas) to achieve that goal.
3. If you are doing mov-asanas five days a week, do those you have selected in Number 2 with the following number of repetitions:
First day: 4 alternating repetitions with each arm for each set. (To be explained later.)
Second day: 10 repetitions with each arm for each set.
Third day: 4 alternating repetitions with each arm for each set.
Fourth day: 10 repetitions with both arms at the same time for each set.
Fifth day: 1 alternating repetition with each arm for each set.
Sixth and seventh day: Rest, or do abdominal mov-asanas alone to keep your waist getting trimmer.
How to get the best results:
4. The fast "get big" days are the first, third, and fifth. You do less repetitions then because you do them with much more power than on the second and fourth days. This is how you do them on the first, third, and fifth days:
(a) Instead of doing them with both arms at the same time, as described in the book,
(b) Drop all your weight on one arm for each repetition. Your body will twist naturally as you do so, towards that arm.
5. By dropping all your weight on one arm at a time, all the muscle fibers of that arm are thrown into contraction at the same time, triggering their maximum growth. Its bones, ligaments, tendons, and sinews are affected likewise, all contributing to its speedy maximum growth in size and power.
6. Resist, also, the effort of that one arm more with the rest of your body, as described in the book for each mov-asana.
7. Since, as stated in 4A, your body twists naturally to drop your whole weight on the arm being exercised, this twist contracts the sides of your waist to a
boil-like tightness. Your abdominal obliques, as a result, are drawn in deep and reduce the girth of your waist to an astonishing degree. You thereby acquire massive size (or become much bigger, if you are a woman) in the chest (or breasts), shoulders, arms, back. But, at the same time, your waist shrinks to a cartoon-like nothingness. . . even if you don't feel the tightness.
The wisest plan to get the best results
8. Do the repetitions of days 1,3, and 5 one limb at a time, that is, do one repetition with your left arm, and then one with your right. That, in Step 3, amounts to one repetition. So, when you perform the number of repetitions called for in the first, third, and fifth days in 3, do each repetition alternately with each arm.
9. Your greatest bulk is gained from your fifth day workout, the day when you do only one repetition with each arm. Throw your whole weight on the arm being exercised and resist (as described in the mov-asana) to the utmost degree. At the end of its repetition the arm should feel that it can't make another one and should retain just enough strength to balance your body while you make one repetition with the opposite arm.
Then stand up, breathing heavily, and walk for a half minute to rest before doing the next one repetition set. At the end of the three sets (or whatever number is called for in the book for that mov-asana) the muscles being exercised should feel larger and larger, for they will be engorged with nutrient-carrying blood.
10. At the end of the fifth day workout you will need the sixth and seventh days to rest and regain your full strength. Those two days, too, will permit the tissues of your muscles, bones, ligaments and sinews to grow faster to handle the extra strain.
11. After three months on such a program, you will be fantastically bigger. But you will already notice significant gains from the very first week. Within three months you could add from ten to 30 lbs. of solid muscle to your body, depending on your natural size and physique type, and constrict your waist to the minuteness of a starving teen-ager.
And you don't need extra or different kinds of food preparations, unusual apparatus, or pills of any kind. Your body will respond naturally to the extra calls for more effort and will grow the necessary additional tissue. 11
An effective compromise
12. If you can spare only three after-work periods a week for the mov-asanas instead of five, then do the first, third, and fifth days as described in 3, and rest from exercise on the days in between. You will then require about one-third longer to attain your physical goal and won't enjoy as trim a muscular delineation as the five-day program. This may satisfy you if you are a woman and wish only to "fill out" more. But if you are a man you will need the in between
days with their higher repetitions to look your most impressive.
This is how to make up that loss. After four months, change for a month of three day workouts of ten repetitions for each mov-asana with both arms at the same time, as described in the book. It will maintain the size gains you have made, and also reward you with trim muscle definition. Performing the mov-asanas with both arms at the same time, too, carves a deep center groove on your chest and in the middle thirds of your back and abdomen. Without these festoons your figure will not appear at its best. With them, though, you will reach your peak of physical perfection. So, if you are unable to adopt a five-day after work mov-asana program, attain your goal to "get big" fast with a three-day program, even if it takes a little longer.
Important: Powerful (and bulkier) thigh muscles slow you down when you jog on a level surface. But they speed you up when you climb stairs or run up a hill. You need more powerful and bigger thigh muscles then, which won't tire so easily from the added muscular effort. It has been proved, besides, that running up a hill (or stairs by two's) rewards you with a much stronger heart than running on a level surface.

More Scientific Support of the Remarkable Truths of My Secrets
A 10-year test by California investigators checked the health of a population of 7,000 in a typical community against their style of living (1974). They tested eight specific habits. The results of their tests showed that the healthiest citizens believe in following the "exact" health formulas which I myself have believed and practiced regularly since I was 24. I taught the first six of them since 1954. I added the seventh to my teachings since 1957, and the eighth since 1960. In brief, I taught all eight of them from 14 to 20 years before science even tested and accepted such as the best health formulas. These are my magic 8 health formulas.
1. A good night's sleep (seven to eight hours)
12
2. Three square meals a day (no more, no less) 13
3. Regular exercise 14
4. No smoking 15
5. Drink moderately or not at all 16
6. Maintain reasonably good weight for height 17
7. Eat breakfast almost every day 18
8. Don't eat between meals 19
The people tested who followed formulas 7 and 8 had remarkably better health than those who skipped breakfast and ate between meals.
Dr. Lester Breslow, Dean of the School of Public Health of the University of California, concluded from the results of his tests that there was a conclusive relation between good health habits and the status of physical health. 20
That's why this book brings you the secrets of extraordinary health and long life. Solar Diet (now out of print) was obviously about 20 years ahead of its time. This book, I predict, also is.

10 As far back as Nov. 30, 1935, I wrote to a personal friend, "It's always good to follow some kind of exercise systematically. Several times when I feel
depressed, or can't take a workout, and solve a writing problem (or am under anxiety or tension) I take a workout, and the answer is soon before me." That discovery puts me again over 40 years ahead of science, for science has not yet agreed with me. But eventually, it will.

20 STILL FURTHER SCIENTIFIC CONFIRMATION. Dr. Breslow, furthermore announced in October, 1975, that a man of 55, besides has the same "physical status" as one.from 25 to 30 years younger who follows less than 2 of the magic health rules. Between 1900 and 1970, he noted by comparison, modern medicine has added only 3 years to the average American's life. This, Dr. Breslow specified, includes the advances of surgery, antibiotics, anesthesia, as well as all the social changes that have been brought about during that period. Now you know why I look—and feel—and am but "half my age. This is another historic scientific "acknowledgement" of the truth and effectiveness of my far-ahead-of-my-times discoveries. My readers and students who have been taught these 8 magic formulas from 14 to 20 years ahead of science's proofs, have profitted from them beyond measure —for you can't buy health and many more years of life with money. This book contains, in addition, hundreds of secrets beyond these which you yourself can put to work right now—perhaps another 20 years before science "acknowledges" them, and thereby add many more years of health and life to yourself than you will be able to add that much later.
