Revisiting a Conversation About Our Sense of Smell
An on-going topic and cause of concerns being discussed since the onset of COVID-19 is the sense of smell.
Some of you may recall in August 2021, I interviewed Frauke Galia, of Falk Aromatherapy on my Wellness Connections podcast #11. In that podcast Frauke explained that there are various types of smell dysfunction ANOSMIA, for example has become a keyword when one becomes infected with COVID-19, and they temporarily lose the sense of smell. There’s also PAROSMIA, which is a smell dysfunction that distorts our sense of smell. You think that you smell one thing, and it is actually something else.
In addition, smell dysfunction has been linked to the early onset of some cognition problems. Read more at: https://www.judithguerra.com/smell-memory-for-senior-citizens
When your time and interest permit, listen to a recent podcast conducted by Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the neurosurgeon who appears on CNN and reports on health and medical news. He is also part of AARP’s Staying Sharp programs. He interviews Dr. Zara Patel on his Chasing Life podcast, and she discusses olfactory training – aka – “smell training.

And, once again, I suggest you visit Frauke Galia’s website and learn more about smell dysfunction, and training available for help. https://www.falkaromatherapy.com/osmias

Tell your Brain to Walk with Pain
Have you ever considered challenging and managing your pain using your brain?
I am not for any stretch of my imagination suggesting that any of us can do what Tiger does – but we can consider what it means to us as just ‘ordinary’ people if we challenge our own physical pain . Listen to this brief explanation of what some of the pain experts are saying about how to control pain, by redirecting the concept of pain and how to manage this challenge.
