Smell can have a profound impact upon how we feel. It can affect our mood and emotions which in turn can affect how we process the world around us. Smells have the ability to tell our brains whether we’re safe or in danger. Think about the smell of smoke or gone off food, smell give us the ability to detect and react to danger, react to the threats to our health and survival.
Smells have the ability to create a physiological response in the autonomic nervous system. Your autonomic nervous system comprises of two sets of nerves, the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Your sympathetic nervous system is responsible for your fight flight freeze response, whereas your parasympathetic nervous system can be thought of as the opposite as it is responsible for rest and digest.
Smell and odours have a profound physiological impact upon your body. Odours which cause discomfort can provoke a non- invasive stress response in the emotional side and the sympathetic nervous system. On the other hand, certain smells have the ability to suppress smells.
At Soapfullness this is why we care about self-care. We want to help you make small steps that will help you create new positive habits each day. Making small positive steps each day can help reduce bad habits such as procrastination [link article] and help support healthy behaviours.
This research paper from Frontiers in Psychology states:
‘’The majority of the world’s population now lives an urban existence, spending as much as 95% of their lives indoors. The olfactory atmosphere in the built environment has been shown to exert a profound, if often unrecognized, influence over our mood and well-being.’’
However, just producing the strongest smelling wax melts isn’t what we are about.
We are about producing the strongest wax melts which will have a positive impact upon you and your day. After all, smell is known to play an important role in the physiological effects of mood, stress, and working capacity.
Smell is personal. It is unique. It is linked to our memories and can trigger our emotions. Our sense of smell can have a very big impact upon your quality of life.
As quoted from this journal article from the Oxford Academic:
‘’From the extensive body of literature, it can be concluded that loss of the sense of smell leads to disturbances in important areas, mainly in food enjoyment, detecting harmful food and smoke, and to some extent in social situations and working life. Most patients seem to deal well and manage those restrictions. However, a smaller proportion has considerable problems and expresses a noticeable reduction in general quality of life and enhanced depression. The impact of coping strategies is discussed.’’
That’s why we care about producing the strongest smelling wax melts, because we know that the impact that wax melts can have, can be huge. Whilst the immediate rewards might be subtle to begin with, over time small changes can lead to big benefits. That’s what we are here to support we our divine wax melts and self-care candles.
This fantastic article by James Clear describes how the power of small habits and how they can change your life. Just 1% change can have a profound impact over the long run. 1% quickly adds up and it can lead to positive compound effects in the long term.
Whilst we aren’t claiming that our strongest smelling wax melts will be life changing, they can contribute towards a positive environment and have a positive impact. This positive environment can affect how you feel and process the world around you. It can affect your overall happiness and mental wellbeing and that is why we produce the strongest smelling wax melts that we can.
An article by Rachel S. Herz, an assistant professor of psychology at Brown University, states that:
‘’People who worked in the presence of a pleasant-smelling air freshener also reported higher self-efficacy, set higher goals and were more likely to employ efficient work strategies than participants who worked in a no-odour condition.’’
To us, that’s a big deal. The impact that smell can have a profound impact and is often over looked when it comes to daily living and self-care. Yet it is such an important factor due to the positive impacts that it can have upon you.
Smell can restore and revive. Smell can help reduce anxiety. Smell can help reduce stress. Smell can impact your moods and emotions. Our sense of smell is a big deal and that is why we care so much about it.
Our sense of smell is processed by the olfactory nerve and then it takes a direct route to the parts of the brain that deals with both memories and emotions. This is why scent can affect mood, memory recall, emotions and concentration. No other sensory system has this intimate link with the neural areas of emotion and associative learning. This is why there is a strong neurological base for why odours trigger emotional connections.
Creating the strongest smelling wax melts is about creating an environment that you feel happy and secure in. An environment that you enjoy being in. By having a wide range of the strongest smelling wax melts, we let you tailor the environment that you want to create with our gorgeous aromas. The great thing about wax melts is that they are affordable and long lasting.
Self-care matters, it really does. A study for the NHS digital published in 2016 found that:
‘’39 per cent of adults aged 16-74 with conditions such as anxiety or depression, surveyed in England, were accessing mental health treatment, in 2014. This figure has increased from one in four (24 per cent) since the last survey was carried out in 2007.
Overall, around one in six adults (17 per cent) surveyed in England met the criteria for a common mental disorder (CMD) in 2014.’’ (CMD – Common Mental Disorders)
I hope that you agree that it is a very big percentage of the population that has or is experiencing mental health. Add in the pandemic, the cost-of-living crisis, it could sadly be considerably higher than those numbers which were reported in 2016.
Making small changes for self-care to support your mental health. Whilst we know that the strongest smelling wax melts and self-care candles aren’t going to be the magic wand, what they can is support you in creating some self-care time. Some you time that will allow you to rest, restore, replenish and revitalise. Small steps, big outcomes as James Clear mentioned above.
