Aromatherapy Oil of the Month May – Peppermint

May 03rd, 2017


Peppermint Oil

Peppermint essential oil

At this time of year many people are studying for exams and it can be a very stressful time.  Peppermint oil can be wonderful for improving mental focus, just put a few drops in an oil burner in the room you are studying in.

Peppermint oil may also help with headaches brought on by tension so try putting a few drops on a tissue and breathing it in to help with clearing head tension. Or you could add some peppermint oil to a teaspoon of base oil (just two drops of peppermint oil) and massage that into your temples and at the back of your neck where your skull meets your neck, where you may find tender points.

Peppermint can also be excellent for helping with digestive issues as for some people exam stress will go to their tummies. You could try drinking some peppermint tea to help with this.

Good Luck
