Research

My research focuses on the development of the Selftropy™ method, an interdisciplinary framework that examines the role of the environment and personal agency in sustaining long-term wellbeing and healthspan. The research integrates cross-disciplinary literature from applied neuroscience, positive psychology, environmental and interior design theory, behavioral medicine, and communication.

The methodology combines ongoing systematic literature reviews with qualitative fieldwork, including expert interviews and practitioner dialogues across diverse wellbeing-related disciplines—ranging from clinical psychology, neuroaesthetics, and aging research to environmental health, lifestyle medicine, and narrative therapy.

This multi-layered approach aims to synthesize theoretical and applied knowledge into actionable wellbeing protocols, contributing both to individual coaching methodologies and broader discussions on preventive health and design-centered wellbeing interventions.

Selftropy draws on a wide spectrum of established scientific research, synthesizing key principles from affective neuroscience, environmental psychology, and psycholinguistics to offer a practical framework for enhancing quality of life. Rather than introducing new clinical claims, Selftropy aligns existing peer-reviewed findings with spatial and temporal design practices to make them accessible and actionable in everyday life. The approach supports cognitive clarity, emotional regulation, and identity coherence—especially through environments that are aesthetically aligned with personal goals and linguistic self-concepts. It is a practice-oriented method intended for application by individuals who seek sustainable, creative tools for fostering mental resilience and long-term wellbeing.
