Scents - by: Jane Kifer

I wore a Rose scent for years! Rose essence saved my life coming out of my divorce. I needed LOVE! Flowers helped, not kidding. I wore young living Rose oil, then moved on from that to Rose spray and Weleda Rose deodorant. I loved it, lived it, wore it- not over powering, but I liked it. The ritual of spraying it and the scent. For 5 years I loved it. I longed for a scent of my own. I had found it. It was perfect. Then! A couple weeks ago, I sort of felt like my energy dropped when I would put it on. I was wanting something new. My deodorant stopped working and soon I didn't even want to wear the spray. I needed a new scent. I didn't know what but something needed to shift. It worked for me so well for a time and part of me thought " You can't change this is the scent you are, you chose, you have loved!" But that's exactly the point, it was all past tense, it isn't where I am today! So I got rid of it. Moving on. I found a new deodorant that works and I love, I found a new spray scent that totally rocks my world and I am good! Just the mere expectation in myself that I should keep wearing it because it is my thing was making me feel obligated and bringing me down. That's not healthy!
