Strategic Recovery Field Notes ๐
Strategic Recovery with Matt Finch โ Episode 19
๐น The Map of Consciousness Explained
Dr. David R. Hawkins proposed a logarithmic scale (1โ1,000) mapping the energy of human emotions. The pivotal shift occurs at 200 (Courage) โ below it, energy contracts and survival dominates; above it, energy expands and becomes regenerative.
| Level | Emotion | Energy Field | Calibration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shame | Humiliation | Despair | 20 |
| Guilt | Blame | Self-Rejection | 30 |
| Apathy | Hopelessness | Victimhood | 50 |
| Grief | Sadness | Loss | 75 |
| Fear | Anxiety | Withdrawal | 100 |
| Desire | Craving | Obsession | 125 |
| Anger | Hatred | Aggression | 150 |
| Pride | Arrogance | Egoic Power | 175 |
| Courage | Affirmation | Empowerment | 200 |
| Neutrality | Trust | Balance | 250 |
| Willingness | Optimism | Openness | 310 |
| Acceptance | Forgiveness | Flow | 350 |
| Reason | Understanding | Wisdom | 400 |
| Love | Reverence | Compassion | 500 |
| Joy | Serenity | Transcendence | 540 |
| Peace | Bliss | Unity | 600 |
| Enlightenment | Oneness | Divine Grace | 700โ1,000 |
๐งฑ The Climb: From Survival to Sovereignty
Early ascent can feel like withdrawal, confusion, or emptiness. Youโre not failing โ youโre detoxing emotionally. Emotions arenโt enemies; they are energies seeking completion. When resisted, they repeat. When allowed, they dissolve.
๐ฎ Patterns & Resonances
- ๐๐ค Opioids โ Apathy + Grief โ craving rest, peace, oblivion.
- ๐ฅ๐ง๏ธ Alcohol โ Shame + Fear โ numbing the inner critic.
- โก๐ฅ Stimulants โ Desire + Pride โ chasing power & validation.
- ๐ฐ๐ฑ Porn/Gambling/Scrolling โ Desire โ outsourcing ecstasy.
๐ช Reframe
โIโm not broken โ Iโm vibrating in fear.โ Awareness is the first rung on the ladder out. Name the field; feel it; let it complete.
๐ฆ The Threshold of Courage (200)
Courage isnโt fearlessness โ itโs walking with fear and acting anyway. Here you shift from โWhy me?โ to โWhat now?โ You assume responsibility, face pain directly, and open to growth. Courage burns illusion and births sovereignty.
๐ฟ From Acceptance to Love (350โ500)
๐ Milestones
- Neutrality (250): โItโs okay if it happens; itโs okay if it doesnโt.โ
- Willingness (310): The return of possibility โ โMaybe I can.โ
- Acceptance (350): Forgive the past; stop resisting your story; see relapse as a teacher.
- Reason (400): Healing is multidimensional โ nutrition, trauma, spirituality, chemistry.
- Love (500): You heal because love is your nature โ not to escape pain.
๐ Vision
Love includes everything โ even the shadow. You begin to see the divine in everyone, even in your triggers and former self.
โก When the Substance or Behavior Becomes Moot
At Love, the need to use doesnโt have to be fought โ it dissolves. The peace you chased in chemicals is recognized as your own presence.
๐๏ธ Dr. Hawkins estimated that one person calibrating at 500 counterbalances negativity from ~750,000 people below 200. Group coherence (e.g., meditators) has been associated with measurable reductions in community violence. Your healing is planetary service.
๐ฌ๏ธ The Practice: Letting Go โ The Pathway to Surrender
โThe only way out is through.โ โ Dr. David R. Hawkins
๐ง The Process of Letting Go
- Feel the feeling without labeling it good or bad.
- Drop the story โ stop recycling it in thought.
- Allow it fully โ let it rise and pass.
- Surrender resistance โ the energy releases.
- Stay as the witness โ you are not the feeling; you are the awareness observing it.
Each surrendered emotion becomes light. Each act of surrender upgrades your frequency.
๐ The Strategic Recovery Ascension Routine
๐ Morning Tuning
- ๐ Gratitude, visualization, breath.
- ๐ฅ Whole foods + hydration (conductors for energy โก).
๐ฟ Daytime Flow
- ๐งโโ๏ธ Move energy: yoga, grounding, cold immersion, or flow.
- ๐ซ Hourly micro-surrenders: forgive + accept in real time.
- ๐ณ Connect with Source, nature, and other hearts. โค๏ธ
๐ Evening Release
- ๐๏ธ Journal + silence โ let the heart speak without agenda.

โAscension is not escaping reality โ itโs integrating heaven into it.โ
๐ From Suffering to Surrender
Addiction is clinging. Recovery is remembering. You awaken to the Witness โ the unbroken, spacious awareness in which all thoughts and feelings arise and fall.

- โ Addiction is a vibration, not a verdict.
- โ Awareness is the first act of love.
- โ Courage ignites transformation.
- โ Forgiveness dissolves density.
- โ Love makes addiction irrelevant.
- โ Letting Go sustains freedom.
