Combining the CERA System and CERA Scents:
The senses, especially smell (olfaction), sight, and touch, are deeply intertwined with brain wellness, and when paired with the CERA System, they create powerful, multisensory interventions that can optimize cognitive, emotional, and physical function.
Olfaction (Smell) Is Directly Wired to the Brain:
- The olfactory nerve is the only sensory pathway that bypasses the thalamus and connects directly to the limbic system, the brain's emotional and memory center.
- This means scent can rapidly influence mood, emotional state, memory, and neurochemical activity.
Inhaling lavender can immediately calm the nervous system by activating GABA pathways, reducing anxiety and promoting rest.
Each CERA session combines:
- Light (red/NIR)โ bioenergetic stimulation
- Scent (essential oils)โ emotional anchoring + limbic activation
- Mindfulness (auditory/focus cues)โ cognitive re-patterning
This tri-sensory method is what makes it deeply effective for holistic brain-body health.
