essential oils for the classroom

It’s back to school time and while I’m not actually going back to school (this is the first time in 22 years that I haven’t had a “first day of school” either as a student or a teacher…so weird!) I know I have a lot of teachers who read my blog so I thought I’d share how I’d be using oils at school if I were still teaching.

I didn’t start using essential oils until a week before I went into labor so I haven’t gotten to try them out in a school setting.  I SO wish I had though!  I always (well, until I got pregnant and couldn’t stand most smells) had a Scentsy warmer running in my classroom/library.  I loved making it smell nice and I think it felt more homey.  I would have loved to use my diffuser so that it would have been beneficial and more than just an enjoyable scent.

essential oils for the classroom

If I were going to be diffusing oils in my classroom, these are the ones I would use.

In the morning: Joy and peppermint to get us woken up and in a happy mood (that’s my favorite combo when I’m cranky or need some pep in my step).

After gym class: Purification to combat that sweaty kid smell.  Shew.  That is not a pleasant aroma, y’all.  I wish I could say that’s limited to middle school but this is not the case.

To keep the air clean:  Thieves for sure!  I’d use this one regularly, especially during the winter.

During a test: Did you know Peppermint and lemon help to support cognitive function?  So cool!  I’d for sure be diffusing those a lot, especially during tests, to try to help my students do their best!  (can you see why I totally wish I’d had oils earlier?!?).  Plus they are both very uplifting oils.

During that wild, hour-before-school-is-out time:  Lavender, Peace & Calming, or Stress Away are all good choices to help calm the afternoon crazies and keep the kiddos from bouncing off the walls.

So, who’s ready for a great school year?  What oil would you like to use most in your classroom?

      I don’t have specific amounts, I usually do 6-8 drops of oil in the diffuser each time but I’m not super strict about it.
