Essential oils are like super strong smells that come from plants. You know how if you smell a flower it smells nice, right? Well, essential oils are kind of like a much stronger version of that smell. But, we don't just use essential oils because they smell good - some people also believe they can help our bodies feel better.
When we use essential oils, we usually put them on our skin or breathe them in. Some people believe that different essential oils can help with different things. For example, some people might use lavender essential oil to help them feel calm and relaxed, while others might use peppermint essential oil to help them feel more energized.
But, it's important to use essential oils very safely because they are so strong. We need to make sure we are using them in the right way and not using too much at once. And, it's a good idea to talk to a grown-up or a doctor before using essential oils, just to be super safe.
