Millions of workers around the world shift to working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Working from home can take quite a lot of adjustment and has its own challenges. There’s a chance you’re having some difficulty staying focused and productive during these uncertain times.

To make the transition easier, create a stress free and relaxing atmosphere in the house. Aromatherapy, or the use of essential oils, can have an incredible effect on your emotional outlook. It helps stimulate your senses if you are depressed or calm you down after a stressful moment. These oils promote healing of the body and the mind.

There are a number of ways you can benefit from using essential oils in your home office.

• Lemon - it stimulates the mind and creates a sense of focus and motivation
• Geranium - promotes a warm, happy feeling and help balance the emotions
• Rosemary - an excellent memory booster, it helps improve memory performance and quality
• Peppermint - increases mental accuracy
• Sage Dalmatian - helps relieve emotional exhaustion, nervousness and mental fatigue
• Orange - lifts your mood and reduces stress while adding a fresh, citrusy aroma to a room
• Grapefruit - relieves stress and bring on feelings of peace and relaxation
• Bergamot - reduces feelings of anxiety and fatigue
• Cedarwood - relaxes the body, clears the mind and enhances concentration

Essential oils work most effectively when they are combined with a diffuser. Ultrasonic diffusers use high electronic frequencies to vibrate water that contains one or more essential oils. The diffusion creates a lovely mist that helps to humidify the air. Mist is a spray of fine droplets of particles that is readily absorbed by our lungs, speeding up the process of aromatherapy.

Ultrasonic diffusers utilise non-heat ultrasonic waves, which do not affect the natural healing properties of essential oils.The aroma produced by the diffusion of oils helps in not only relaxation of body but also causes a boost in energy level. It is a perfect way to improve your home, work or study environment.
