Essential oils, which are obtained through mechanical pressing or distillation, are concentrated plant extracts that retain the natural smell and flavor of their source. Each essential oil has a unique composition of chemicals, and this variation affects the smell, absorption, and effects on the body.
“The fragrant touch of essential oils is like a gentle hug from Mother Earth.” “Essential oils are the elixir of life, nurturing both body and soul.” “The power of essential oils lies in their ability to bring balance to our lives.” “Essential oils are nature's remedy for a tired mind and a weary soul.”
Essential oils smell great, reduce stress, treat fungal infections, and help you sleep. They are concentrated extractions from plants. A process called distillation turns the “essence” of a plant into a liquefied form for many medicinal and recreational uses. There's a wide variety of essential oils available.
