Did you know that others can literally smell your feelings?
When my friend’s sister walks into a room, she thinks no one will like her and gets that kind of reaction from others. But when my friend walks into a room, she believes that others will like her and she thinks along those lines. And others do like her.
Why does this happen? Other people can smell your feelings, literally.
Your body produces pheromones according to your feelings, research shows. My friend is confident that others will like her when she walks into a room, and she produces pheromones that signal to others around her that she is confident. Other people’s noses detect the smell her confidence pheromones. But her sister does not produce these pheromones.
Something else that causes people to produce pheromones is drugs. We used to use a plumber that neither of our dogs like. After one of our sweet dogs tried to attack this plumber one day, we found out that he uses pot on a daily basis.
How can you make your feelings smell the way your want them to? Remember that how you feel causes your body to produce these important chemical signals that others can detect.
Here are the main pheromones that others detect that your body produces.
-
Androstenone
A sexual pheromone for women, this pheromone helps men be more attracted to a woman looking for a partner.

Androsterone

Androstadienone
A pheromone that creates feelings of comfort, this one increases feelings of intimacy. Married people or those in long term relationships with higher levels of this pheromone have closer, more intimate relationships.
Want to produce more androstadienone? Believe you are capable of intimate relationships. If you do not believe you are capable of these types of relationships, practice skills that will enable you to feel you can have them. Practice actively listening to others and develop your compassion.

Androstenol
If you are in a management position, you might want to have this pheromone. People who have this pheromone are more approachable. You might also want to have this hormone if you are trying to make new friends or significant others.
Maybe my Grandma had lots of androstenol. She was very approachable and everyone loved her.
