7 Essential Oils for Focus and Concentration for Kids

Below are 7 best essential oils for focus and concentration for kids.

1. Rosemary

Scientific name: Rosmarinus officinalis

Rosemary oil is the best essential oil for boosting memory. It also increases mental power and helps a child concentrate on his/her task to the end.

2. Wild Orange

Scientific name: Capparis mitchellii

Wild orange oil is good for awakening the senses and increasing focus and energy.

3. Lemon

Scientific name: Citrus limon

Fresh, clean and fruity, lemon oil is good for cleansing the mind of clutter and useless thoughts. It also actively fights depression, improves a sour mood and prevents tantrums.

4. Peppermint

Scientific name: Mentha piperata

Refreshing and invigorating, peppermint oil increases mental clarity and focus.

5. Cedarwood

Scientific name: Cedrus Atlantica

Cedarwood oil has a high amount of sesquiterpenes – more than any other essential oil! Sesquiterpenes are chemical compounds that increase oxygenation to the brain, making it perform much better! It also calms the brain which helps maximize focus and concentration.

6. Basil

Scientific name: Ocimum basilicum

A fresh cooling and herbal oil, basil is an amazing oil. It clears the nasal pathways and promotes clear and easy breathing. This allows the child to breathe more oxygen which promotes more blood flow and oxygenation of the brain. It also combats colds and cough, which can disrupt concentration and studying.

7. Grapefruit

Scientific name: Citrus paradisi

Grapefruit oil has a very uplifting and energizing scent. It boosts mood, energizes an individual and motivates them to complete the task at hand.
