Drawing from the evidence based research, Karen explains not only how this happens, but why. And, teaches you how to utilize this incredible power of scent to your advantage to live a healthier and calmer life.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Why does the smell of perfume, or anything for that matter, invoke an emotional response in us? Karen breaks down the science of why scent impacts us emotionally.  The correlation between scent and mood has been thoroughly researched and is backed up with evidence. Karen gives an overview of how certain scents can influence us emotionally.  We can use the ability of scent to evoke emotions to our benefit, as Karen explains how to ‘set an intention’ with a scent to positively influence your day.  In a similar way, we can also use scent to transition our mood or mindset, whether that be wanting to regain focus or to help us switch off after work. Karen explains how you can do this.  BEST MOMENTS  “The connection of scent and memory isn’t just anecdotal, it’s rooted in how our brains function.” “Scent doesn’t just improve emotions, it can be used to enhance your focus during work, promote creativity or increase energy during workouts.” “Consistency is key.
