It is one of the best feelings in the world to be secure and safe. To have a support system that surrounds you where you don’t feel alone in your basic instinct to survive and protect yourself. The people in your life who come alongside you and say, “You are important to me. It is worth my sacrifice to take care of you.” We all need them and hopefully we all strive to be these people as well. Those who protect and nurture the well-being of others silently and unseen have some of the greatest impact on those around them. Our Thieves essential oil blend works this way in our bodies.

Thieves essential oil was created from research based on legends about a group of 15th-century thieves who used oils as a way to protect themselves from the yuck going around as they looted homes. According to the legend, after being caught they revealed their secret in order to secure a more lenient sentence. Weber State University demonstrated the effectiveness of this blend against airborne microorganisms in a 1997 study.

Thieves is a blend of clove, lemon, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus radiata, and rosemary, a little army all working together to build up the defenses of the body against intruders. They work silently and within the body to arm us for the unexpected. There’s never any way to know what will suddenly come at us so the key is to have a trained defense in place and ready for all scenarios. It’s far easier to defend our bodies before they need defending and Thieves gives us that readiness. Thieves is our defender, who, if used consistently, increases that secure blanket of assurance that we are doing everything in our power to guard the gates of our homes and health.
