Sharing From My Dear Friend, Kristi Smith…..extremely helpful info…
✌️❤️🙏💧👃
I’ve heard so many share that they have lost their ability to smell. So I wanted to share some cool info from my friend, Marla, to help, if you are still struggling.

You will need:
four essential oils – rose, lemon, clove and eucalyptus. You can sub the rose for another floral like Joy or geranium but it has to be a full blown floral aroma. These are specifically chosen bc they hit all the anosmia buttons.
The precise choice of oils represents 4 distinctly different categories.
eucalyptus = woodsy
lemon = citrus
clove = spicy
rose = floral
a supply of cotton wool pads (or perfume-testing strips, if you can get a hold of some)
1. Start with one oil – it doesn’t matter which – and put a few drops on the pad.
2. Let the aroma develop for a couple of minutes, then bring the pad to within an inch of your nose and breathe naturally through your nose. Don’t try too hard and inhale sharply – if you do, you’re unlikely to smell anything.
3. Move the pad away, then bring it back up to your nose and inhale again. Do this several times with the same oil.
4. Then take a break for five minutes before repeating the process with the next essential oil.
5. Aim to do the training twice a day, in the morning and evening.
Don’t be discouraged if you can’t smell anything at first. Anecdotal evidence from anosmia sufferers who’ve tried the technique suggests that it may take at least a week before you get a hint of any fragrance.
For best results, researchers recommend that you follow the smell training for six months.
