Why Thieves essential oil is a must-have oil
Everyone’s first aid kit / medicine cabinet / wellness cabinet needs to have a bottle of Thieves oil. It is a staple oil that I wouldn’t be caught without. I have bottles of thieves all throughout the house including in my sock drawer with a roller fitment on it for easy application under the soles of my feet.
The legendary Thieves blend (of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary), needs no introduction if you have been in our community for some time or have come to one of my oils 101 /low tox workshops/webinars.
Thieves is best known for its immune boosting, antimicrobial and anti-mould properties. It is so powerful that it is the basis of YL’s cleaning range and our mould protocol (see the 4 step mould protocol in the EO101 guide found in the password protected Member Resources page of my website). (If you don’t know the password email me ASAP).
Use Thieves all throughout winter, change of season, if you are feeling unwell, while travelling, if people around you are sick, or if you are immune compromised.
Fun fact: Thieves was named after a group of thieves in the 15th century France who rubbed these oils on themselves during the black plague, so as not to contract the disease while robbing valuable from the dead and dying. Legend has it that the presiding judge gave them a lighter sentence in exchange for them revealing the secret formula. Gary Young found 17 slightly different recipes for the secret formula documented in historical texts in the State library, and took what was common across all 17 and formulated this blend which became YL’s signature oil and revolutionary blend, and is the most copied essential oil in the world–so be on guard for imitators and cheap alternatives!
