Everything you need to know about Thieves Essential Oil
One of my favorite things about Young Living is the amazing teaching and training they provide. Essential oils are so powerful, yet we need to understand how they work to realize just how life changing they can be!
Today I want to share a post from the Young Living Training & Education page on FB. This is a great resource for all essential oil lovers!
Let's talk about the power of Thieves! The popular Thieves essential oil blend is a proprietary combination of Cinnamon Bark, Lemon, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, and Clove essential oils.
Young Living’s Thieves essential oil blend was inspired by the legend of four 15th-century French thieves who formulated and wore a special aromatic combination of clove, rosemary, and other botanicals that they believed provided protection while they were stealing. French authorities recognized that there was such value in this mixture that upon the thieves’ capture, they received a more merciful punishment on condition that they divulge the ingredients in their secret formula.
Thieves essential oil blend has a warm, spicy scent. Diffuse it for a fresh, clean aroma around the house or apply it topically for its cleansing properties.
Benefits:
•Cleanses when applied topically
•Neutralizes and purifies the air from strong odors when diffused
•Freshens any atmosphere when diffused
Usage:
•Refresh musty carpets by adding 5 drops of Thieves to a cup of baking soda; combine well and let sit overnight until the oil is absorbed. Sprinkle over carpets and vacuum thoroughly.
•Apply Thieves to the bottoms of your feet to refresh yourself after vigorous activity.
•Diffuse it around the classroom or in your home for a fresh, clean fragrance and to neutralize the air from strong odors.
•Add a few drops to your dishwater or dishwasher to eliminate odors and boost cleaning.
Young Living Thieves Vitality™ was specially formulated so that you and your family can enjoy the benefits of Thieves essential oil internally. The difference between Thieves Vitality and Thieves essential oil is simply the labeling and recommended usage. The essential oil in the Vitality product line is the same 100 percent pure, therapeutic-grade essential oil as the topical/aromatic counterpart; however, Thieves Vitality is labeled for dietary use and is the appropriate product to use when sharing dietary uses with others.
