I have only one cornering method, but I vary its' degree.
I start with simply leaning so my chin and shoulder is to one side, and I am sitting on one bum cheek. Usually this is plenty for the bike to casually roll into a corner. Touring mode!
If I am moving more quickly, I will combine it with a small bar push, or a more exaggerated shoulder movement.
If I am moving plenty quickly, or I detect some substantial movement is required, then I will stand and put my my whole body out, opposite bar push, and wait and then concentrate and steer with the bars. I know I have maximum cornering ability available in the position.. well, my bikes does.. not so much for me.. 
So for me it is about degree, and situational awareness. Some days I struggle with the bar push when I am already mid-corner.. some days I don't. Some days are just like that.
What does not, and never has, and never will work for me, is riding along quickly and not thinking about it. I repeatedly find myself up shit creek doing that, consequently requiring large mind-fuck type bar-pushes and large angles of lean, and if I am unlucky - touches of tyre on white line or worse. 
Always engage brain.
