Beacon of Hope

Very uplifting looking at the illuminated church tower; a great contrast in an area relatively low light pollution

Starting to feel the potential of Essential Oils both topically and inhaled yesterday. I love pleasant smells eg Roses but generally have a very poor sense of smell.

Timely item on BBC Radio 4 today on how to train yourself to improve your sense of smell with someone from the charity Abscent, which has it's demand growing. I learned it's about improving nerve connections whilst smelling in a mindfull way (ie focus on it). Makes sense.

Decided to combined diffusion with mindfullness youtube session today, which I really enjoyed and benefited from but distracted from focussing the body scan guidance meditation. Will continue to experiment meditating with & without the perfume.
