In cases of direct dispersal or induced chemical change, the effects are directed to the disharmony alone, and there is no interference with the healthy tissue or structure.

The establishing of this state of harmony is called "attunement.” When a healer is in an attuned condition for healing, he is in a state of harmony with the healing guide, who is able to receive thought impressions from the healer and to give thought impressions to the healer's consciousness. This can be likened to a very slight degree of trance. It is through attunement that the healer becomes "conditioned” to be a channel through whom the healing energies flow. What is the primary source of the healing power? Why is a human channel necessary to conduct the healing power? Nothing takes place by chance in the universe. There is an orderly, reasoned process behind every state of change that occurs. This principle must apply to spirit healing too, but, whenever there is a planned process, there must be an intelligence which can use the law-governed forces to promote the change. Every healing must be a planned process, designed to bring about a change in either the outlook of the patient or in the affliction itself. For example, if a person's joint is cemented together by arthritic adhesions, then those adhesions must be changed in their status to allow movement to come to the joint.
