Over the past 20 years, many Newman scholars across the globe have investigated health as expanding consciousness with persons living with chronic illness. This integrative review examines the use of the concept, relationship, and its seven dimensions—health, caring, consciousness, mutual process, patterning, presence, and meaning with persons with chronic illness when engaged in health as expanding consciousness praxis. A regular and sustained pattern of publication of studies that included the seven dimensions was found. Relationships among the dimensions of a Newman praxis relationship, chronic illness, and health as expanding consciousness are discussed.
