囧研究：壓力大咋舒緩 聞檸檬味15分鐘有奇效

淡酒微醉

　　The bright light plays across my closed eyelids and， as I breathe in,， a tangy waft of citrus fills my nostrils,。
　　明亮的光線劃過我緊閉的雙眼，借著我深吸了一口氣,，一股沁人心脾的柑橘香味飄進(jìn)了我的鼻腔,。

　　But far from lounging under a Mediterranean sun,， surrounded by lemon trees， I’m in a medispa in London’s Belgravia,， trying out the latest 15-minute therapy for stressed-out execs who want a quick reboot,。
　　但我可不是悠閑地躺在地中海的日光下，身邊是成群的檸檬樹,，而只是在倫敦貝爾格萊威亞的一家溫泉會所里嘗試最新的15分鐘放松舒緩療法而已,，希冀能夠讓自己重新振作起來。

　　It combines the sort of light stimulation used by lamps shown to alleviate SAD （Seasonal Affective Disorder — seasonal depression,， thought to be caused by lack of exposure to sunlight） with aromas scientifically proven to have an effect on the mind and body — a cross between light therapy and clinical aromatherapy,。
　　這種療法將用來減緩“季節(jié)性情感障礙”（可能是憂郁缺少光照而引起的季節(jié)性的憂郁）的燈發(fā)出的光線刺激與芳香科學(xué)結(jié)合，且確實被證實有益身心——光線療法與臨床芳香療法的相遇,。

　　Research established that three smells seem to have a measurable impact on how people feel and behave,。 ‘Lavender contains a natural anaesthetic called linalool， which is why it has a reputation for being relaxing,，’ he says。 ‘Citrus scents have anti-depressive effects and mint has been shown to enhance sports performance,�,！�
　　研究表明有三種氣味能夠在很大程度上影響人的感受以及行為�,！稗挂虏莺�有一種名為芳樟醇天然麻醉成分,，這也就是其能夠以使人放松而聞名的原因。柑橘類的芳香能夠起到抗抑郁的作用,。而薄荷則被證實能夠提升運(yùn)動表現(xiàn),。”

　　Tests showed that a combination of light and smell was more effective at boosting mood than light or smell on its own — and best of all,， it only took 15 minutes to create that change,。
　　測試表明比起單獨的光線或是氣味，將光線與氣味結(jié)合在提升情緒方面更為有效——最重要的是,，這一轉(zhuǎn)變僅需15分鐘,。

　　You simply sit back， relax,， allow the therapist to position the lamp correctly and load up your chosen capsule,。 Then breathe for 15 minutes。
　　你要做的只是**,、放松,，讓理療師來調(diào)整燈光位置并裝上你選擇的膠囊。然后就深呼吸15分鐘吧,。（滬江英語）
