Valentine Special – Love at 5 Senses

It’s definitely a Valentine special to be bombarded with the feelings romance, love and happiness. As humans, our five senses enable us to feel the emotions of the season – women arguably have a sixth sense, but I digress.

We love tasting our favourite food, look at what is pleasant, smell scents that evokes happiness, listen to music that makes us feel good and feel skin to skin contact that comfort us. As a Valentine special, here’s a walkthrough to evoke your partner and you for a memorable Valentine’s day this year.

Taste the love

Bring him/her to eat something nice, have a candlelight dinner and end off with sparkling wine and a box of dark chocolates. Sparkling wine contains serotonin, dopamine and opioid peptides which are natural brain chemicals that make you feel happy. Dark chocolate contains endorphins which trigger a “happy and loved” feeling.

Heavenly scents

Olfaction (sense of smell) is one of our most impactful senses. Also known as the sense of smell, aromas can have an immense effect on our emotional being. Buy a bouquet of flowers or a diffuser. A pleasant aroma would definitely put him/her in the perfect mood for the occasion. Aromatherapy is an important step to take in making a balance for healing, relaxing and balancing the mind.

The two most popular scents for aromatherapy include rose and lavender. Rose is thought to boost the feelings of love, compassion and devotion. Lavender evokes positive emotions. These are good scents to infuse into a romantic night to make your Valentine special.
