DIY Thieves Spray
We definitely desire to keep things clean during this COVID-19 pandemic -- whether we're at home or out doing essential business. Thieves Spray is our usual tool for quick, extra cleaning boost on surfaces, but it is in and out of stock since demand is so high!

Since we need it now, here's a quick, easy recipe using ingredients you can find at local stores plus your stash of Young Living essential oils!

And, BONUS, there's a demo for a Thieves Throat Spray -- because we need the protection that nature's essential oils provide in our mouth, throat, and airway!!



Ingredients (see notes below the list)
  • Grain Alcohol or Neutral Spirit (ie, Everclear or Nikolai)
  • Water
  • Thieves essential oil blend (or other Young Living essential oils)
  • Spritzer Bottle
Grain Alcohol - most hand purifier recipes recommend rubbing alcohol. This can be harsh on the body. We prefer to use food grade alcohol. To get the recommended 60% alcohol into your recipe, the grain alcohol has enough alcohol content.

Essential Oils -- if you're running low on Thieves, feel free to substitute from your Young Living stash. (But, stay away from the essential oils at the grocery store -- you're likely to add synthetic compounds to your recipe and your body!!) Some of my favorites to substitute are Purification and Christmas Spirit essential oil blends.



BONUS - Thieves Throat Spray
We need to keep our mouth and airway clean, too! Here's a simple spray "recipe" you can take with you on the go -- or use it at home. Get the extra benefit of fresh breath, too!

Ingredients (see notes below the list)
Thieves Fresh Essence Mouthwash combines the power of Thieves essential oil blend with peppermint essential oil for a blast of freshness! It's powerful! It has the added benefit of colloidal silver.

Meet Peter & Amy Minke!

 
Freedom Oilers is the Young Living organization of Peter & Amy Minke

You desire essential oils for your family - and you choose the best for them, right?! Also, you desire help in learning HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS to achieve powerful results to keep your family happy and healthy!

You've found an awesome resource, right here! We are Peter & Amy Minke and we have been using Young Living Essential Oils for over 26 years. We actually used other oils before that, and even some during that time, but we learned the hard way that there is a WIDE range of quality out there and the poor quality (even when they say they are tested and "pure"), can hurt you.

Please know that we only use Young Living Essential Oils – and that in our opinion and experience, you cannot expect to achieve the same results we talk about by just going out and buying essential oils. In fact, we hesitate to teach people how we use oils until we know that they have Young Living oils. You need a company committed to quality and committed to the therapeutic use of essential oils.

Why would you choose to learn from us?
We have A LOT of experience! We have 5 children and have used Young Living products through 4 pregnancies and with 5 infants (Our oldest was a baby when we found YL -- he's now 26!). We are both massage therapists and we have taught regular people as well as massage therapists to use essential oils safely and effectively for the last 26 years.

Also, Peter has a PhD in Cell Biology. (If you're interested in the science behind essential oils, ask him questions! He loves to "geek out" about the oils.) Peter served on the Scientific Advisory Board for Young Living Essential Oils. He has been a national and international trainer for Young Living, as well -- that means he travels across the country and around the world teaching people how to use essential oils!

We would love to teach you, too! :)
