Making the Switch to Thieves Cleaner

Essentially Better LivingLeave a comment

We made the switch to Thieves products ten years ago and it has been one of the best changes we have made for our family.

Thieves products are plant based, all natural and potent! A picture is worth a thousand words. Just look at the image below to see how Thieves responds to bacteria vs its chemical laden counterparts. And of course Thieves oil is a key ingredient in Thieves Cleaner so it smells amazing!

Teacher friends, my students with asthma and respiratory issues comment that they can actually breathe in my room. And everyone comments on how good my room smells. No one likes hearing this but: Ditch those Clorox wipes and Lysol! 😷

If you have been looking to make the switch but hesitant due to cost, you actually may want to consider Thieves Household Cleaner.

It’s a concentrate so you just use two capfuls in an empty spray bottle and fill the rest of the way with water. This costs pennies and it’s so easy!

The bottle of concentrate that I currently have has lasted more than 6 months and it’s still not empty. I make a bottle for the bathroom, kitchen and one for my classroom.

Added benefits include: not breathing in harmful chemicals, no sneezing, nose burning or throat closing as a consequence of this.

The quality of the air you breathe, and that your family breathes matters. This is especially true if anyone in your household has severe allergies, asthma or other respiratory issues.

Screenshot/pm me your order of Thieves Cleaner today and I will gift you with my very favorite spray bottle!

DIY Thieves.

Last week, I did the unthinkable. I ran out of Thieves. 😭 And this is NOT the time to be without the king of immune system support oils!

Obviously I ordered more, but until it gets here, I had to get creative. I realized that not only do I have all of the ingredients to make my own Thieves, I realized that Young Living is giving most of these to their customers this month as promos for hitting different spending targets. They are giving us the gift of health!

How accurate this is, I’m not for sure, but all four recipes that I was able to find online generally had this ratio:

2 drops rosemary
3 drops eucalyptus
4 drops cinnamon bark
7 drops lemon
8 drops clove

I kept this ratio but multiplied each number times 5 and placed in an empty dropper bottle to make a synergy or mixture. I did not add any carrier oils. This way, I can simply add 4-6 drops of the mixture to our diffuser. And it almost smells just like our wonderful Thieves!

Notice I said “almost.” Rest assured when my bottle of Thieves arrives I will be going back to it. I’m no Gary Young over here! But if you’re ever in a pinch, this is good to know about.

I won’t be wasting this concoction. My family really likes it so it is going to be the “Thieves” for our kitchen diffuser.

Raise your hand if you have Thieves or something similar in your wellness cabinet!
