Map of Consciousness Explained: A Proven Energy Scale to Actualize Your Ultimate Potential By David R. Hawkins

The Map of Consciousness Explained introduces David R. Hawkins’s framework for emotions and spiritual development. Charts, affirmations and reflective exercises accompany discussions of states such as fear, courage, love and peace.

The book serves as a primer to his wider work, including ideas first presented in Power vs. Force. Despite the word “proven” in its subtitle, the map should be approached as Hawkins’s spiritual model, not a validated diagnostic instrument or an objective measure of a person’s worth.
