College life is full of excitement, new experiences, and challenges. As a college student living in a dorm or apartment, it’s essential to create a comfortable and relaxing environment to fully enjoy academic and social experiences. Essential oils can be there to help manage busy schedules with a better mind-set and a more pleasant living environment.
Must have essential oils for college life
•Relaxation & bedtime: Sleep and stress management are so important for college students’ overall health, and unfortunately both can easily be lacking during the semester. Lavender, cedarwood and chamomile can help promote relaxation and create a better sleep routine. Diffuse your favorite calming oil 30-60 minutes before bedtime or spray Fresh Floral Room Spray onto your sheets before hitting the pillow.
•Focus: There are so many distractions in college, and it can be easy to lose focus. Vetiver is a very grounding oil that helps to set the mood for a team project or cram session before a test. Diffuse or make a roll-on to enhance concentration and focus.
•Mental Clarity: Rosemary is an awakening oil that is perfect for long study sessions or those 8am classes. Studies have shown rosemary is particularly effective with memory recall. Diffuse 5 drops each of rosemary and bergamot while studying, then bring a roll-on of the same blend with you to test day & apply to pulse points.
•Mood Enhancement: If you’re college is in a location with long cold winters or maybe a lot of cloudy rainy days, citrus oils can be your best friend. Oils like sweet orange and lemon can uplift your mood and provide an energy boost to keep you going all semester long. Add a few drops of Citrus Burst essential oil blend onto your morning shower floor to get the day started off right.
Natural Air Fresheners
Essential oils can purify the air and eliminate odors, making your dorm or apartment smell clean & fresh even if you don't have the time to stay on top of cleaning everything. Aura Cacia has you set with a complete line of natural air fresheners.
Diffusers
Candles are typically no-no’s in dorms and apartments as they are considered a fire hazard. A better alternative is to use an essential oil diffuser. Aura Cacia has 3 different options to choose from based off aesthetic and need. They utilize ultrasonic vibrations to disperse a fine, cool mist of pure essential oils and water. By not using heat, the natural aroma profile of the essential oils is protected. The simple, sleek design works well in any room to fit the decor. Ultrasonic diffusers are also great for dorms or apartments as they are quiet!
Choose the right diffuser for you:
Aura Cacia Lunar diffuser features an opaque glass top with 7 LED color options.
Aura Cacia Celestial diffuser features a beautiful wood look with a warm white LED light for ambiance.

Fill the diffuser with water up to the designated line and add 5-15 drops of your favorite Aura Cacia essential oil blend.
