In the office environment, wood's energetics and optimism for growth and change speak to expansion, leadership, an ability to thrive under pressure, truthfulness and the willingness to endure.  To imbue open-mindedness and a propensity toward growth and development, add the wood element to your environment.
Scents that increase the wood element are:
Lavender, bergamot, chamomile, peppermint.
If you find yourself enmeshed in the pursuit of growth and change without regard for others or feel impatience and fault-finding erupting, an overdose of the wood element might be the causing the disruption.  Too much wood can cause a feeling of being out of control, forgetfulness and restlessness.  When you demand from others more than you require from yourself, try curbing the wood element at work.
Scents that  reduce an overabundance of visual wood elements are:
Jasmine, coriander seed, ginger, pine, tea tree, myrrh.
