Discover the world, with just your senses

Unlock forgotten memory, engage your imagination and discover enhanced wellbeing with aromatherapy for anyone, anywhere at any time.

Our sense of smell is intrinsically linked to our memory and one of the oldest and deepest parts of the brain. Estimated to be over 10,000 times more sensitive than our other senses like sight or sound, our sense of smell is a powerful tool to engage our brains, causing emotional and even physical responses which can enhance our state of wellbeing. But how does it work?

THE SCIENCE

Located at the top of the nose is the olfactory bulb, a part of the nervous system that captures the aroma you are smelling and carries the signal to a part of the brain called the limbic system. When we smell something, it bypasses our conscious brain, going straight to the limbic system. This area of the brain is responsible for producing and releasing our sensory experiences, such as memories, pleasure and instincts. More often than not, the body responds to the aroma before your brain has even recognised what it is.

ENGAGE YOUR IMAGINATION

Aromatherapy – the art of using essential oils for your wellbeing – can help us relive memories, or even enhance a meditation where you are creating an image in your own head to cause an emotive or physical reaction by encouraging your senses to work with your imagination for a more real experience.

Think of a time you visited your ‘happy place’ – whether that was a relaxing spa burning exotic incense, a tropical beach with balmy jasmine perfuming the air or even simply a grandparent’s lavender or herb garden from your childhood. Imagine if you could tap into that memory and have your mind and body respond as though you were back there. With aromatherapy, its easy! Combining essential oils in a blend can create a truly personal aroma that can enhance your wellbeing whenever you need it.
