Theres lots of science around the benefits of Essential Oils when inhaled, the scent molecules in Essential Oils travel from the olfactory nerves directly to the brain and especially impact the amygdala, the emotional centre of the brain.Â

The science behind essential oils:Â
The olfactory system, which is responsible for our sense of smell, plays a significant role in influencing our mood. Certain scents can evoke powerful emotional responses and trigger memories, affecting our well-being. Inhaling fragrances stimulates the olfactory receptors in the nose, which send signals to the brain’s limbic system. The limbic system is closely linked to emotions, memory, and behaviour. As a result, certain smells can directly impact our emotions and mood states.
Examples: Lavender essential oil has been shown to have a calming effect and may help reduce feelings of anxiety and stress. On the other hand, Rosemary essential oil has been found to enhance cognitive performance, concentration, and memory. Others like Lemon essential oil, Peppermint essential oil, and Frankincense oil have also been studied for their potential brain-boosting properties.

Precautions & Safety Use:
Always dilute essential oils properly before applying them on the skin, as they are highly concentrated and can cause irritations or allergic reactions. Carrier oils such as Coconut oil, Olive oil, or Jojoba oil can be used for dilution. Essential oils should not be taken internally as they can be toxic when consumed in large amounts. They should be stored out of reach of children and pets for the same reason.
