Last night I grabbed a bubble bath from the corner shop. In the bath I thought “this smells so familiar” but couldn’t quite place it.
Went to sleep then in the early hours I dreamt of my grandparents who are both in spirit. My gran used to bathe me as a kid using the exact same scent. All those emotions and memories came flooding through while my thinking mind was resting.
Our sense of smell is a POWERFUL bridge. It’s the only sense that bypasses the thalamus and travels directly to the amygdala, the emotional centre of the brain. No filter. Straight into memory. Straight into feeling.
I messaged my mum in the morning and told her I’d been dreaming of her parents.
She said, “ I was just thinking of you when your message arrived.” Of course she was.
Because we’re ALWAYS connected. To everything. To our loved ones, living and in spirit, our ancestors, our animals, the rest of nature, the stars…I could go on. But our mad busy lives distract us away from being in that grounded deep connected centre and it can take work, practice to remember how to be there.
Scent is one of the best ways to get there. Like in a time machine. Boom, right there. No thinking needed. And this is where we meet our animals. In that space. And this is exactly why I bring scent in my 1:1 Intuitive Mentorship. Because before we can truly hear our animals, before we can access that quieter, deeper way of listening, we need to come home to our own body first.
Scent does is effortlessly by bypassing the thinking mind completely and drops you straight into your senses. Into presence. Into the exact state where intuitive communication becomes possible.
If you’re curious about developing your own intuitive connection with your animal, that’s exactly what we explore together in my mentorship.
