Repost - Here are some surprising statistics among the US population. This study was published in 2016, so these numbers are likely [MUCH] higher now. Toxic chemical fragrances & their effects on society is a larger issue than the general public is aware of.

Pay attention to what others are saying or not saying,
Doing or not doing, in their attempts to be or not be, around you or in your environment.

If someone has told you that they suffer from fragrance sensitivities, and you continue to wear fragrance when you’re around them, or you go around them with your clothes strongly scented from laundry products, or you have your air freshener plug-ins or diffusers active when you invite them to your home/office/event, your actions are not showing that you care for them.

The next time you go to work or worship, to a public or private gathering, and if there’s a chance that someone there has fragrance sensitivities, please consider going fragrance free.

This, my dear loves, is a divine and humane act of Loving Others Well
