Home Fragrances Improve Mood And Create Tranquil Environment

Numerous studies have been conducted by scientists and psychologists to correlate

the role sensory input plays in determining mood and overall feelings of wellbeing. These studies continue to hone in the power of scent and how fragrance can impact the way a person feels.

For example, the scent of lavender, whether its sprayed in a perfume or burned as an oil, evokes feelings of calm and tranquility. People that struggle with sleep disorders or have difficulty relaxing at night can benefit from burning lavender candles at night or rubbing lavender oils on certain trigger points.

Scents featuring anything with citrus tend to awaken the scenes and heighten energy levels. If you have trouble waking up in the morning, why not spray an orange-scented perfume in your bathroom and kitchen as you wake up and start your day with breakfast?

If youre struggling to curb a sweet tooth or are under a lot of stress, vanilla or caramel-scented oils are perfect to burn. These scents resemble the same smells as some of our favorite childhood treats like warm vanilla sugar cookies and are caramel-flavored candies so you can indulge without taking a single bite. Often times food cravings can be appeased by smell rather than taste.

Scents can also provide the perfect backdrop for festive occasions, including holidays. Apple cinnamon and pumpkin spice are perfect for the fall months as they evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. Spray them around your home or burn these scented oils for Halloween and Thanksgiving. For Christmas you could use those as well, or go with a spicy gingerbread or peppermint. If you have guests visiting for Christmas, this would be the perfect time to serve warm peppermint tea or make gingerbread lattes.

During the spring, the time of year when ideas are flowing and flowers are in full bloom, go for anything floral soft lilac, hyacinth, orchid, water lily, or rose hips. These scents will help foster creativity and get you moving outdoors, where the sun is shining and the temperatures are getting warm enough for an invigorating walk through the park.

During the summer months, go for something fruity and light, such as passion fruit, sun ripened raspberry, strawberry kiwi, or pear blossom. A quick couple of quick spritzes throughout your home will keep it smelling nice and fresh without being overbearing, especially when theres a lot of humidity in the air. The key with home fragrances during the spring and summer months light, light, light!
