STEP 17 - TEST DAY NERVES

broken image

Some students are excellent test takers, but for others, the pressure of TEST DAY can cause anxious feelings and stress.

Try taking the edge off those nerves by diffusing grounding oils, such as Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Sandalwood, or, of course, the Grounding Blend. These oils will help students feel calmer and more confident during important evaluations.

PEPPERMINT can promote focus and concentration and is another great oil to diffuse during test-taking times. It can help students stay alert and boost mood at the same time.

TIP: Because the sense of smell is closely linked with memory, try diffusing your favorite study oil or blend (like the Focus Blend) while you are teaching the material or when students are studying. Then diffuse the same oil or blend during the test or exam. Not only will this help your students stay focused and relaxed, it might also help trigger memory.

QUESTION – DO YOU OR ANY OF YOUR STUDENTS HAVE TEST ANXIETY?
