A friend got their starter kit yesterday and asked "what are some favorite oils that people like to diffuse?". Well, looking for some oils for sore throat/conestion this morning I came across this.... "University researchers in Japan found that diffusing certain aromas in an office environment dramatically imporoved mental accuracy and concentration. Diffused lemon resulted in 54% fewer erros, jasmine 33% fewer, and lavender 20 percent fewer errors. When aromas were diffused during test taking, scores increased by as much as 50%. University of Miami researchers found that inhalation of lavender increased beta waves in the brain, suggesting heightened relaxation...also reduced depression and improved cognitive performance.... A 1995 Mie Unvierstidy study found that citrus fragrances boosted immunity, induced relaxation, and reduced depression..." This info is from The Essential Oils Desk Reference. Of course this is just a few of the oils you can diffuse ... enjoy!
