- To try it, all you need is four different fragrances, such as rose, lemon, clove and eucalyptus essential oils
- Actively sniff each scent for about 20 seconds a couple of times a day, such as immediately after waking up and before going to bed; be sure focus your concentration on the scent while you’re sniffing, trying to recall your experience of the scent
