Supports prolonged mental attention for ADD/ADHD and strengthens ability to overcome/ignore distractions. ATTENTION™ balances and regulates the Central Nervous System. It clears mental cobwebs, fortifies and has been known to assist in calming angry situations.
Attention™ was formulated by homeschooling parents specifically to assist with ADD and ADHD. The medical benefit of this oil was proven during research conducted between 1999-2001 where subjects with a confirmed diagnoses of ADD/ADHD inhaled essential oils when they began to feel “scattered”.
The inhalation of the oils proved to settle the brain waves back into normal patterns and improved their scholastic performance and behavioral patterns. The four oils in the Attention™ blend – Vetiver, Frankincense, Lavender, and Cedarwood — all showed substantial benefit, with Vetiver helping 100% of the test cases. The blend further synergizes the positive impact of the oils.
Cedarwood (Cedrus deodora): Helps to strengthen the nervous system and keep focus in the face of ADHD/ADD issues.
Frankincense (Boswellia Carterii): Helps fortify the mind, eliminate indecision and boost mood. Also reduces inflammation which can help lower cortisol levels and calm mood.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia): Balances mood, reduces stress and tension, calms the mind and enhances the other oils in this blend for optimal effectiveness.
Vetiver (Vetivera zizanioides): Prompted a 100% performance improvement in children with ADD/ADHD in a 2001 study. It is one of the best oils for grounding, calming the mind and focusing on specific tasks.
