A scent dispenser/absorber includes a container, an invertible lid reversibly attached to an open end of the container, a vented cage, and a scent cartridge housed within the cage after being procured from a repository or so-called “scent library.” In an “off” condition or state, the scent cartridge/cage combination is received in an interior chamber of the container, where the scent cartridge is out of communication with the surrounding environment and therefore incapable of performing scent dispensing or absorbing functions. The scent dispenser/absorber can be switched to an “on” condition or state by manually inverting the lid and hence the associated cage/scent cartridge combination such that the scent cartridge can be positioned externally of the container, where it can communicate with the surrounding environment to perform a desired scent dispensing or absorbing function. In an “on” condition, scent molecules originating from an odorant contained in a reticulated, hydrophilic inner core of the scent cartridge pass through a thermoplastic outer skin of the scent cartridge before being diffused into the surrounding environment.

Methods of operating a heating oven for use with a heat-not-burn portable heating device for the delivery of vaporized natural consumables are disclosed. The oven operates according to one or more temperature profiles for the duration of a heating session. The oven heats a flower stick filled with natural consumables to vaporize volatile compounds for the inhalation and enjoyment of the user. The oven operates by both conduction and convection via knitted wire filters that have high surface area and thermal mass to enable rapid heat transfer and stabilization of temperatures.

Systems, devices, and methods described herein relate to multi-sensory presentation devices, including virtual reality (VR) devices, visual display devices, sound devices, haptic devices, and other forms of presentation devices, that are configured to present sensory elements, including visual and/or audio scenes, to a user. In some embodiments, one or more sensors including electroencephalography (EEG) sensors and a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors, e.g., included in a brain-computer interface, can measure physiological data of a user to monitor a state of the user during the presentation of the visual and/or audio scenes. Such systems, devices, and methods can adapt one or more visual and/or audio scenes based on user physiological data, e.g., to control or manage the state of the user.

Described are articles formed of a pulp base material comprising fibers, wherein pores are formed between the fibers. A volatile composition with at least one top note component and at least one base note component at least partially fills the pores of the pulp base material. A release rate of the at least one top note component is modulated by the pulp base material, and a release rate of the at least one base note component is enhanced by the pulp base material.

Disclosed herein a method for improving holistic wellness of humans, wherein said method comprises of synergizing the light and color via spectral wavelengths inducing Simultaneous Adjacent Chroma Stimulus (SACS), sound frequencies and projection art. The synergized light and color, sound frequencies and projection art provide a sensory experience that de-stresses and realigns the body, mind and soul. The corresponding system comprises of an enclosure having projection screens and multipurpose integrated apparatus, wherein said apparatus comprises of CONTENT projecting means, color and light producing means, sound producing means and geometric reflectors, wherein these are configured to project lights on to the projection screen shown through a story-telling format, wherein said light projecting means, light producing means, sound producing means, projecting screens and reflectors are relatively placed so as to optimally produce the desired response of de-stressing and breaking the vicious cycle of stress in humans.

Methods and compositions for treating mTBI, PTSD or mTBI with PTSD with psychedelic agents and N-acetylcysteine are provided. Nasal mist transducers for administration of one or more pharmaceutically active ingredients such as these as fine mist particles at preselected dosages and times are also provided.

A system for providing aromatherapy to a user is described herein. The system comprises a mobile computing device including a mobile application to control the system; a diffuser mounted to the mobile computing device, the diffuser including: a body, one or more cavities in the body, one or more heating elements positioned to provide localized heating to the one or more cavities, a processor, and one or more non-transitory computer storage mediums. The system also includes a plurality of carriers including scented material, the carriers sized and configured to reversibly fill a cavity and position scented material proximate a heating element. The non-transitory computer storage mediums are encoded with one or more computer programs that, when executed by the processor in response to instructions from the mobile computing device, instruct the heating elements to apply heat from the heating elements to activate the scented material and deliver a predetermined aromatherapy experience to the user. Corresponding methods also are disclosed.

A detection unit (88) detects a specific state of a wearer. A signal communication unit (92) wirelessly transmits, to an information processing apparatus, log information indicating a detection result obtained by the detection unit (88) detecting the specific state and a date and time when the specific state is detected. A stimulus application unit (94) applies a stimulus to the wearer when the specific state is detected by the detection unit (88).

An adjustable bed includes a frame structure; a plurality of platforms disposed on the frame structure; and an adjustable assembly coupled with the frame structure and the plurality of platforms for operably adjusting one or more of the plurality of platforms in desired positions; and an aromatherapy system attached onto the one or more platforms for producing desired fragrance in a surrounding space of the adjustable bed so as to promote health and well-being of a user. Each aromatherapy device is configured to produce a fragrance when said aromatherapy device is turned on, and one or more working modes. The fragrance is identical to or different from that produced by other aromatherapy device of the one or more aromatherapy devices.

One variation of a method for delivering a digital medicine experience to a user includes: loading the digital medicine experience at a sensory immersion vessel; calculating a target value of a bioindicator of the physiological state of the user, the target value of the bioindicator corresponding to a target physiological state of the user; at an initial time, rendering sensory representations of a set of elements in a multi-sensory virtual environment within the sensory immersion vessel at an initial progression rate; at a time during the digital medicine experience, succeeding the initial time, measuring a value of the bioindicator; calculating a progression rate through the digital medicine experience based on a difference between the value of the bioindicator and the target value of the bioindicator; and at a second time succeeding the time, rendering sensory representations of the set of elements in the multi-sensory virtual environment at the progression rate.
