Attunement

Attunement was the early term adopted by practitioners of the pseudoscientific[1] discipline of energy medicine, originally developed by Lloyd Arthur Meeker (1907 – 1954) and his colleagues.[2] Meeker taught and practiced Attunement as a central feature of his spiritual teaching and ministry, Emissaries of Divine Light.[3] Attunement is taught as a personal spiritual practice and as a healing modality offered through the hands.[4] Emissaries of Divine Light believe that Attunement is a pivotal factor in the conscious evolution of humanity.[5]

Like qigong, reiki, and therapeutic touch, attunement is a putative practice as defined by the United States National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), lacking published scientific study of its effectiveness.[6] Attunement practitioners and clients rely on personal and anecdotal experience to promote it.
