While the superconscious is often ignored by the various schools of contemporary psychology, in psychosynthesis, particular attention is given to studying even undeveloped or episodic manifestation of these aspects, observing their effect on the rest of the personality, and using techniques designed to facilitate the manifestation of these energies and their integration into everyday life.
Psychosynthesis, rather than being an artificial imposition of techniques, simply unblocks and stimulates a process that is more closely allied to us than any other: becoming who we are.
