A couple days ago I was headed into town with
my family.
As we pulled away from the house, I noticed
something was missing...
And I said to my husband, “Oh great, I forgot my
phone... we've got to go back and get it.”
Now, I don't consider myself addicted to my phone...
but I do like the security and
convenience of having
it with me.
But you know what?
There's something I want to have with me even
more than my phone whenever I leave the house...
...and that's a minimal number of essential oils.
So far, over the past week, we've covered two of
the three essential oils I think anyone ought to take
with them when they leave the
house...
The oils mentioned were peppermint and lavender.
Today, I'd like to cover oil number three...
And that is the essential oil blend called
Thieves.
Now the reason I take Thieves with me wherever
I go is
simple...
It can be summed up in two words...
IMMUNE SYSTEM.
Supporting your immune system is always important.
It's what keeps you healthy.
But strengthening your natural immunity is especially
important when you venture out of your castle to be
exposed to who knows what in the big ole bad ole
world out
there.
Well, Thieves blend is terrific for providing the kind
of support your immune system needs.
I don't know if you are aware of the back story of
this blend, but it's fascinating...
According to legend, there were a group of thieves in
the 15th century who applied a mixture of oil on
themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they
robbed the
bodies of the dead and the dying...
When the thieves were caught, they were forced to
spill their secret... and they revealed the formula of
herbs, spices, and oils they used to stay well.
The
Thieves blend of oils we have today – containing
clove, lemon,
cinnamon bark, eucalyptus and rosemary –
is based on that formula.
Personally, I use Thieves oil like this...
First, before leaving the house, I often rub a drop of
Thieves oil on the bottoms of my feet.
I especially tend to do this during cold and flu season.
Then, as I'm out and about, I commonly put a drop
of Thieves in my mouth, rub some on my chest,
or
just inhale it.
… And I make a special point of doing this if I know I've
been exposed to someone who is ill.
What's amazing is that no matter how I apply Thieves,
I can feel the immediate support it gives my body.
I also like to use a couple of Thieves related products
The Thieves Spray is great for sanitizing all kinds of
surfaces... like those you come across in bathrooms
and public transportation.
And, the Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier is my preferred,
natural alternative to the many anti-bacterial lotions
available today.
I should mention too... If I'm traveling and will be
away from home overnight, I also bring along some
gelatin capsules and a travel diffuser, to use with
Thieves, of course.
Using Thieves in these ways has served me and my
family well.
And if you haven't tried Thieves before, you really owe
it to yourself to give it a
try...
