The Schanfarber Method is a practical, step-by-step system for increasing mental clarity and emotional well-being. It is holistic and systems-based, meaning that it supports mental, emotional, and physical well-being simultaneously.
A unique synthesis of positive psychology, somatic awareness, quantum principles, and emotional intelligence, The Schanfarber Method engages body, mind, and spirit, helping users strengthen inner coherence and access inner guidance.
The Schanfarber Method works directly with three distinct human operating systems:
- Cognition
- Sensation
- Emotion
Each of these three operating systems can also be understood as intelligence centers, aspects of self, realms of experience, or modes of being.
The method seeks to integrate and develop each of these inner realms through practices that speak the language and engage the values of each mode. These practices are designed to enrich:
- Cognitive perception and mental clarity
- Somatic awareness and embodied insights
- Emotional well-being and guidance
Only when all three systems are honored, integrated, understood, and engaged skillfully can a person fulfill their greatest potential and truly thrive.
The Schanfarber Method is valuable in both clinical and self-help settings, and can be practically applied for the purposes of:
- Resolving personal or interpersonal issues, past and present
- Gaining clarity, understanding, awareness, and insight
- Reducing tension and anxiety
- Cultivating inner peace and contentment
- Creating healthy habits and mindsets
- Accessing flow states and supporting inner coherence
- Connecting to spiritual wisdom and existential well-being
When properly applied, the method is an elegant reflection of what it teaches, gently engaging mind, body, and heart (spirit) with a respect for the unique gifts each brings, and an understanding of how all three can be brought into balance to create synergy and well-being.
Each of these three aspects of self – cognition, sensation, emotion – is honored, engaged on its own terms, and strengthened through intentional use and practice.
