Experiencing our world through the sense of smell can have a positive or negative effect; it can awaken feelings of desire and joy, just as easily as aversion, sympathy or rejection.  We are not always aware of our olfactory perceptions:  but we are aware of our mysterious response when we feel a reaction through our sense of smell.

Aromas are being used in many different areas in our lives, such as supermarkets enhancing bakery smells. They are believed to trigger buying impulse!  Casinos often use relaxing aromas to encourage gamblers to linger longer and gamble more!  It is said that aromas of freshly mowed grass are piped into the terminals at London's Heathrow Airport!

A good way to apply aromatherapy is through misting.    It is a simple and delightful method to use essential oils for clearing the room, creating a refreshing aromatic environment that can be carried around like a perfume.
