The Methodology and Benefits of Scents to Mood
According to research, using fragrance can help those who are in stressful situations feel less anxious. For instance, Manne and Redd employed scent materials to ease patients' discomfort during an MRI scan while they were receiving medical care. The research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center involved 85 individuals who were having MRI scans. Patients who were exposed to a vanilla smell were 63% less anxious overall than those who weren't. Scents have an impact on our sleep as well as reducing tension. For instance, peppermint can excite the brain and interfere with sleep. However, heliotropin, which has a vanilla-like scent, helps calm the mind and improve sleep.
Basically, scents are emotional.
