It's about taking care of your emotions in the same way you would treat a scrape or a bruise on your skin. When you're feeling upset, emotional first aid involves doing things that make you feel better, like talking to a friend, taking deep breaths, or doing something you enjoy. It's all about helping yourself feel calmer and happier, just like how putting a bandage on a cut helps it heal. Emotional first aid is important because it helps us feel better and stronger, even when life gets tough.
