Essential Oils for Back to School

If your kids aren’t back in school yet, they probably will be soon. (My oldest starts kindergarten next week!) With the change in routine, you may be looking for something to help ease your child’s anxiety, support their immune system, or help them get a good night’s sleep. So, I’ve come up with a short list of my favorite kid safe oils and blends that your kids (or you!) may need as the new school year begins!

Anxiety Relief

If your child has the back to school jitters, Roman Chamomile or Calming the Child may help ease their fears. Add a few drops to an essential oil bracelet to get the benefits while on the go.

Focus and Concentration

Does your child struggle with sitting still and paying attention in class? Try A+ Attention blend. It contains Bergamot and Vetiver oils which calm and balance the mind. This is another good option to use in essential oil jewelry.

Immune Support

To fight off all those new germs they’ll be in contact with, stock up on Frankincense or Immune Boom. And, if they do get sick, diffuse Germ Destroyer to help them recover more quickly.

Restful Sleep

For a good night’s sleep, you can use the oils mentioned in the Anxiety Relief section above, as well as Lavender or Nighty Night in a diffuser at bedtime.

As always, please use your essential oils safely, especially around children! You can read more information in these posts:

Here’s to a happy and healthy school year!
