A Breath + Scent Ritual for Emotional Release

---

Place a few drops of essential oil or hold a scented product near your nose.

Inhale slowly for 4 seconds.

Hold for 2.

As you exhale through your mouth, let your shoulders drop.

Repeat for 3 rounds.

Then, on the final inhale, silently say: “I allow myself to soften.”

Let the scent hold what you’re ready to let go of. Let the breath carry it out.
