Instructions for use

Upon opening the box, familiarize yourself with the schedule displayed on the lid. You will smell train four scents per day, two scents in the morning and two scents in the evening. This will repeat five days a week for eight consecutive weeks.

Step 1: Always begin by cleaning your hands. This ensures that you avoid any potential irritation or infection.

Step 2: Carefully insert the first scented nose plug into your nose. Apply gently into the nostrils until the bracket meets the nasal wall. Breathe normally through the product.

Step 3: Set a timer for 10 minutes. During this time, focus on the scent. Try to remember what the smell is supposed to smell like. Visualization can help reinforce your memory of the scent.
