ESSENTIAL OILS FOR LEARNING

Is one way of thinking and learning better than another? No. Studies have shown that each hemisphere of the brain has its own unique and special abilities. The right brain is artistic, creative, intuitive, holistic, subjective, and looks at wholes. The left brain is logical, rational, analytical, objective, and looks at parts.

Even though both hemispheres of the brain have independent functions, an individual benefits from the integration of the processing of information performed by each side.

Therapeutic grade essential oils are believed to heighten right brain activity while increasing left brain integration. These oils are a great support to learning.

Peppermint oil is purifying and stimulating to the conscious mind. It increases mental accuracy by 28 percent and also stimulates the brain's satiety center to curb your appetite. It is good for nausea, fevers, relieving fatigue and depression.



Lemon oil promotes clarity of thought and purpose with a fragrance that is invigorating, enhancing, and warming. University researchers found that diffusing the oil in a working or learning environment dramatically improved mental accuracy and concentration, resulted in 54 percent fewer errors, and increased test taking scores by as much as 50 percent.

Rosemary oil helps overcome mental fatigue and improves mental clarity and focus. University scientists found that rosemary boosted alertness, eased anxiety, and amplified analytic and mental ability.


Lavender oil is the "mother of all healing herbs." Researchers found that diffusing lavender improves mental accuracy and concentration, reduces errors, and increases test taking scores.
