Improve Focus With Aromatherapy

People swear by essential oils for everything, so it should come as no surprise that there are several that are thought to improve symptoms of ADHD. Personally, I've noticed a difference in my ability to concentrate, energy and stress levels, mental clarity, and mood when I diffuse essential oils like orange, bergamot, frankincense, and clary sage.

A USB desktop diffuser, like the BBSKIN Mini Kids USB Essential Oil Diffuser ($15), serves as a visual reminder to actually use the diffuser every day when I sit down at my desk to work (there's that object permanence again).

Other scents that may benefit people with ADHD include vetiver and rosemary. A study in the Journal of Intercultural Ethnopharmacology concluded that vetiver essential oil may improve alertness and task performance." Similarly, a study published in Therapeutic Advances in Psychopharmacology found that rosemary had a positive effect on cognitive performance.
