Which Essential Oils Help with Focus for School?
When homework piles up and after-school activities kick in, maintaining focus can be tough for kids (and parents). Certain essential oils are known to improve concentration and alertness, making them perfect for study sessions or busy school mornings.
- Lemon – Boosts alertness and mental clarity.
- Peppermint – Enhances focus and reduces mental fatigue.
- Sweet Orange – Uplifting and motivating, great for creating a positive study environment.
Try diffusing 3 drops Lemon + 2 drops Peppermint during homework time for a clean, refreshing aroma that supports concentration.
How Can Aromatherapy Support My Child During the School Year?
Beyond focus, aromatherapy helps kids and parents manage stress, emotions, and overall well-being. Here’s how:
- For calm – Oils like Lavender and Ylang Ylang help reduce tension and create a peaceful environment before bedtime or during stressful mornings.
- For immune support – Tea Tree and citrus oils like Lemon and Orange are known for their cleansing and protective qualities, perfect for the back-to-school season when germs spread easily.
