You can take a formal qualification course (introductory course) while conducting a "scent health check" using olfactory response analysis in three separate sessions. ✔ Each session includes a formal assessment (advice for improving your physical condition)✔ The feeling of "visualizing" changes in your physical condition and mood through scent✔ The more you learn, the more self-care tips you can get that can be applied to your life! "Olfactory response analysis" scientifically interprets the state of your mind and body from your scent preferences. In this three-part course for olfactory response analysts, you will not only learn the theory, but also gain both "knowledge" and "realization" by repeatedly checking your physical condition each time.
