Aromatherapy is often effective in lifting mood, reducing stress, and anxiety through the inhalation or topical application of essential oils. Certain scents like lavender, chamomile, and bergamot have been shown to promote relaxation and calmness by stimulating the olfactory system and influencing brain chemistry. The aroma of these oils can trigger the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which are associated with improved mood and reduced stress levels, providing a natural and holistic approach to emotional well-being.
