Soothing Effect of Scented Candles

The scented candles by Earthen Essence emit scent which has the soothing effect but the impact depends how one's brain processes smells. The soothing smell of scented candles not only stimulates our limbic system, which is the the part of our brain which is ultimately a home to our memory and emotions. Our moods are regulated by the release of hormones like serotonin and dopamine . As we know some odors and smell can arouse emotion, therefore they can lead to the recall of emotional memories. Thus we can say that there is direct relationship between scents, memories, and emotions.
