An Aromatic Life

#5: Why Do We Have 2 Nostrils and How Do They Help Us Smell?


Listen Later

In this episode, Frauke explores why we have two nostrils; why not just one? And she'll explore what that means for how we smell.   She'll discuss:  Why is it that, even though we have two ears and two eyes, having two nostrils is still a little different? Why are our nostrils important for our health?  Why are they important for our safety? What does having two nostrils suggest about how we perceive the world around us?  To wrap up, as always, Frauke offers a simple exercise you can do to apply what you've learned.
