How Can Scents Help You Study?

Studies have shown that certain scents can have a positive effect on brain function, and our candles are crafted with that in mind. From the invigorating and stimulating aroma of peppermint to the calming and relaxing scent of lavender, our candles provide an olfactory experience that can help you achieve your goals.*

What are the Best Scents to Study With?

The best scents for studying depends on what you are trying to achieve out of the study session. For instance, if you are looking to boost focus and concentration, scents like peppermint or eucalyptus can be invigorating and help keep your mind sharp. On the other hand, if you are aiming for relaxation and stress relief during a study session, lavender or chamomile might be better suited, as they promote calmness and reduce anxiety. For memory retention, rosemary is an excellent choice, as it has been linked to improved cognitive performance. Tailoring the scent to your study goals can enhance your productivity and overall experience.

What is the Pomodoro Technique and 52/17 Rule?

The Pomodoro Technique and the 52/17 Rule are powerful time management methods designed to boost productivity and focus by balancing work and rest effectively. The Pomodoro Technique divides work into focused sessions followed by breaks, with longer breaks after every four cycles, promoting sustained concentration and reducing mental fatigue. The 52/17 Rule involves working intensely for 52 minutes, then recharging with a 17-minute break, ideal for longer, deep work sessions. Both approaches help improve efficiency, prevent burnout, and make tackling tasks more manageable, offering flexibility to suit different work styles and maximize performance.

By aligning our candles with the these principles, Study Scents™ help you stay on track and remain focused for the duration of each candle burn, resulting in ~52 minutes of uninterrupted concentration.

A focused mind is a productive mind. Try Study Scents™ today and experience the power of scent on your ability to concentrate and achieve your study goals.
