Guinness World Record Holder, endurance athlete, and author Christopher Bergland writes “Smell is often the first warning of safety or danger, friend or foe. Smells have the power to drive your behavior on an instinctive and subconscious level. Luckily, you can also harness the power of smell and consciously use it to your advantage.” Unfortunately, most of us tend to underestimate the importance of smell. Olfaction is a physical sensation that can regulate our mental experiences. It can evoke psychological states of mind, both negative and positive, and trigger instantaneous reflexes. It can subtly influence our thoughts and emotions even when we are not aware of the scents in our present environment

I never thought beyond the normal smell when I come across one. Come to think of it, that is true.
I’m glad you get what I was trying to say in my article. How are you doing healthwise my friend? Are the breathing exercises helping a bit?
I’m doing better. I have managed to apply the breathing exercise. It’s helping. Thanks.
