All About Thieves

Thieves is by far my favorite Young Living product.

Our family uses the oil daily for immunity support, to help keep us healthy, and we also clean with it and diffuse it regularly. Not to mention that it smells like fall! It's an incredibly powerful and versatile oil and a great oil to start using if your new to oils.

I love a little DIY to make my own cleaning products, but I also love the convenience of having many of these items already on hand. Specifically, we use the Thieves Cleaner Concentrate,  dish soap, and dishwasher detergent. (Side note: since you only use a little bit of concentrate and dilute it quite a bit, the bottle of concentrate lasts forever). And I switched over to their dish products in order get rid of the toxins found in most dish soap/detergent products. Seriously, Google it.

The story behind Thieves is that a group of 15th century robbers covered themselves with this blend of spices and oils to protect themselves from getting the plague while robbing those who'd died from the disease. When they were arrested government officials promised a lighter sentence if they gave up their immunity secrets! Gary Young, Young Living founder, formulated Thieves with four of the main ingredients found in the legendary recipe: Clove, Cinnamon, Rosemary, and Lemon and added some additional oils based on their particular health benefits (like eucalyptus radiata, for example). 

Honestly, I've not found one person that doesn't love using Thieves. It's a great addition to the dr. mom wellness arsenal, and a simple solution to ridding the toxins from your home.
