The Essential Awakening® Smell Training Collection is the first All-in-One Kit available in the United States and includes the Dr. Rachel Herz Smell Training Guide. Smell Training has become a buzz word in the age of COVID-19, and is a regime to help people who have lost their sense of smell outlet (anosmia) due to COVID-19. Smell Training can also be used as a way to accelerate the lost sense of smell due to other illnesses such as aneurysms, strokes, and head trauma. It is important to note that even though smell training has helped many people regain their sense of smell, it is not a guarantee.
The Smell & Memory Collection consists of:
- 12 x 0.7ml distinctive aromas (apple, jasmine, mint, popcorn, lilac, pine, pineapple, lavender, grass, cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate)
- 2 packets of 100 paper strips
- Clue cards if you have someone helping you with the training (as Rosie Rosario of NYC did after her aneurysms in 2018)
- The Smell Training Guide by neuroscientist and expert on the psychology of the sense of smell and taste, Dr. Rachel Herz
The following are excerpts from the introduction to the Essential Awakenings® Smell Training Guide:
“Our sense of smell is essential for our physical health because scents enable us to detect a variety of dangers, and specific smells, due to their emotional associations, can also have positive (or negative) effects on the functioning of our immune system.” - Dr. Rachel Herz
“Considerable research has revealed that there is a treatment method for people who seem to have permanent anosmia that enables them to regain their sense of smell. The treatment method is “smell training”. - Dr. Rachel Herz
Testimonials:
“I lost my sense of smell and taste when I had COVID in March. Several months later, I was surprised to still not be able to smell and taste. The world seems a bit flat and uninteresting without those two senses. Luckily, I contacted Ruth and she sent me her wonderful smelling kit. The variety of scents and easy use of the applicators motivated me to use the kit fairly regularly. A doctor explained it to me like this: When you injure your leg, you do physical therapy to regain your strength and agility. This is like physical therapy for your sense of smell. Both taste and smell have improved greatly with the use of the oils, but taste is definitely in the lead. I have still got a ways to go until I fully recover, but this lovely kit has speeded up the process for sure. Many thanks to Ruth and The Scent Guru Group!”

“Around early April I was really sick. My smell and taste was completely lost. I discovered The Scent Guru Group, and immediately purchased a smell kit and started using it immediately. Within 2 weeks I started to notice an improvement in smell and taste. I was consistently using smell training on a daily basis. I highly recommend people to purchase this particular smell kit if they are dealing with the same issues. Overall, if you are suffering from smell and taste loss than definitely purchase a smell kit from The Scent Guru Group.”
