Rosemary Essential Oil Spotlight
Rosemary has an earthy, sweet, herbaceous scent that is familiar and welcoming, but many people aren't aware that this oil is a powerhouse! Inhaling rosemary can help overcome mental fatigue, improve mental clarity and focus, ease anxiety and enhance analytic ability. Rosemary is a key player in our beloved Thieves blend and has been burned for centuries as incense to ward off sickness. To say we love this oil is an understatement! Just a Drop of Rosemary
- Has a crisp, invigorating, herbal aroma that pairs well with most other oils
- Promotes shiny, healthy-looking hair
- Cleansing and purifying
- Helps create an environment conducive to work or study
- Supports the immune system and overall wellness
- Contains antioxidants
BACKGROUND
Native to the Mediterranean and Asia, rosemary derives its name from the Latin words “ros” and “marinus,” or “dew of the sea.” An evergreen shrub in the mint family, Rosemary grows abundantly in rocky coastal regions. Rosemary essential oil has an invigorating aroma that can be used to create an environment conducive to work or study. It is often included in soaps, fragrances, shampoos, and household cleaners and is a key ingredient in the Thieves essential oil blend. Rosemary is highly supportive of the immune, respiratory and cardiovascular systems and is often used to support healthy blood pressure.
Key Constituents
*Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties
- Eucalyptol - eucalyptol has a distinctive, fresh aroma that has a calming effect on the user when applied in aromatherapy. Research shows that eucalyptol may have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and neuroprotective effects. It may also act as a bronchodilator, supporting airway opening.
- Camphor - known for its medicinal aroma, camphor has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries for its cleansing properties and was used as a fumigant during the plague era. This constituent may provide antibacterial anti-inflammatory and skin supporting properties.
- Alpha-pinene - a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown alpha-pinene to support the body through inflammation and to help calm the mind.
Rosemary & Emotions
Rosemary can be an incredible health tool when it comes to emotional support! Not only does this herbaceous oil help with mental clarity and focus, it is supportive of the immune system as well. And our immune system is highly linked to our emotional state!
Think about it. When you feel something coming on you are often more easily agitated, feel low energy and even depressed. When we begin to fall below the wellness line it affects us physically, yes, but also spiritually, emotionally, mentally. The opposite is true as well. When we are feeling the negative side of emotions, our immune systems need some support. Feelings of Vulnerable, Exhausted, Unfocused, Uncertain and Run Down are a great time to grab your Rosemary!
One simple way to help with this… keep your bottle of Rosemary beside the bed. When you wake in the morning feeling sluggish, unwilling to start the day, uncertain of what is ahead, take a deep breath of Rosemary. To promote Clarity, dilute and rub over the throat or over the liver.
Daily Habits with Rosemary & Rosemary Vitality

Winter Spa Diffuser Blends
There is something fundamentally refreshing about a new year. It's a time to rest, to renew, to sit and enjoy the slowness of winter while holding space for our dreams, our needs and our desires.
Winter is a time to reflect on what we want to continue giving energy to and what we want to gratefully release. During this time let's make room for true self-care everyday with journaling, meditation, and a spa-like experience right in the comfort of your home.
This collection of diffuser blends features some of our favorite winter oils - Lavender, Lemon, Raven, Frankincense, Rosemary and more. These are the blends we are reaching for right now as we extend our winter hibernation, reflect on the year past, set personal and health goals for the future, and refresh and renew our bodies and spirits as we look forward to the year ahead with expectant hope.
Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell happy and inviting all at the same time.
LIFE HACK - You can easily transform these blends into roller recipes and sprays!
To make a 10 mL roller from any recipe - triple the number of drops to make a total of 35-45 total drops, add a carrier of choice (we love V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex) and you're good to go.
To make a 2 oz spray from any recipe - double the number of drops to a total of about 25 drops, ad a splash of witch hazel and fill with filtered water. Spray on upholstered surfaces, bedding, rugs, anywhere you want to freshen!
Happy diffusing!!

Eucalyptus Essential Oil Spotlight
Eucalyptus is a household staple for sure! This oil has a fresh, invigorating scent that is wonderful for respiratory support and also promotes health, well-being, and purification. Eucalyptus oil is also a great choice for sore muscles and is found in the OrthoEase and OrthoSport massage oils. It is also a cleansing oil and is great for laundry + cleaning and is a component of the Inner Defense capsules (amazing for immune support!) and the Thieves essential oil blend (our favorite for just about everything).
Just a Drop of Eucalyptus
- Has a bold, invigorating aroma that supports the airways
- Creates a refreshing breathing experience when inhaled
- Promotes a peaceful environment at bedtime
- Wonderful for supporting airways during cold weather and before/during exercise
- Great for tense and tired muscles
- Cleansing and refreshing, wonderful addition to cleaning DIYs
- Creates a spa-like experience when used aromatically
- Creates a cooling and soothing sensation when applied topically
What's the Difference?
There are different Eucalyptus oils because there are many different varieties of the Eucalyptus plant, more than 700 species! There are three varieties of eucalyptus essential oil available, and each variety is steam distilled individually, using the leaves of the plant. These are Eucalyptus Blue, Eucalyptus Globulus, and Eucalyptus Radiata, and while interchangeable for most needs, they are actually quite different from each other.
- Eucalyptus Blue is grown in Ecuador and is used by natives for repelling insects and covering wounds. It has a very balanced chemistry and is the only Eucalyptus variety that does not cause an allergic reaction in individuals who have a eucalyptol allergy. Eucalyptus blue has a very herbaceous and spicy aroma which is great for respiratory support. It is found in the Breathe Again roll-on.
- Eucalyptus Globulus is grown in China and is wonderful for respiratory support and soothing sore muscles. This variety of eucalyptus has the highest amount of 1.8 cineole (eucalyptol), making it wonderful for respiratory support. It has a bold and rich aroma and is found in the OrthoEase and OrthoSport massage oils, the Breathe Again roll-on, and the oil blend RC (which stands for Respiratory Congestion).
- Eucalyptus Radiata is grown in Australia and has a striking, citrusy scent. This species of Eucalyptus has been treasured in folk medicine for centuries and used by natives for many immune supporting purposes. A very large flowering tree in the myrtle family, Eucalyptus radiata produces fragrant leaves and is also known informally as narrow-leaved peppermint. Eucalyptol is the constituent that gives Eucalyptus Radiata its camphorous aroma and incredible respiratory support properties!
At a Glance Usage Guide
Want the cliff notes version of which eucalyptus oil to use? We've got you covered!
- Wanting some respiratory TLC → Any of them!
- Cleaning and laundry needs → Any variety, though we like Eucalyptus Radiata for its crisp, clean aroma
- Creating a spa-like atmosphere → Eucalyptus Blue
- Little ones need some help → SniffleEase or Eucalyptus Blue
- Soothing muscles and joints → Eucalyptus Globulus
- Needing a little immune support → Eucalyptus Radiata
Using Eucalyptus Essential Oil
Eucalyptus is wonderful to diffuse and pairs well with Lavender, Cedarwood, Copaiba, and Pine oils (it's great with Lavender to create an at-home spa!). You can also add Eucalyptus to your laundry, wool dryer balls, and linen sprays. Eucalyptus is wonderful for DIY chest rubs and epsom salts baths when your immune or respiratory systems need a little TLC.
Eucalyptus and Children
Eucalyptus in all its varieties, like Peppermint, can be a warming oil with a strong or "spicy" smell. So with little ones, we like to start using it on their feet diluted with your favorite carrier oil. The reflex point on the bottom of the feet to support the lungs is the large pad up under their toes. This is a great way to support their little respiratory systems!
If you want a great, ready-to-go Eucalyptus product for littles, Young Living also carries a special pre-diluted blend of coconut oil and Eucalyptus Blue along with other beneficial oils called SniffleEase that we love.
Daily Habits with Eucalyptus (any variety)
Use this oil to help support the airways during the cold weather! Dilute with coconut oil or V-6 Vegetable Complex and apply to the chest as desired. This is a great thing to do before a winter workout!
Soothe tired muscles with a simple massage oil - mix a few drops of Eucalyptus Radiata with carrier and massage onto tense areas. You can also add Rosemary and/or Lavender!
Make this Eucalyptus Lavender Soak for a little self care and to give tense or tired muscles some TLC:

Purification Spotlight
Purification is our favorite way to keep our homes smelling fresh and clean - even if they aren't! It has a crisp, fresh aroma, and unlike many harsh chemical-based sprays it truly eliminates odors and doesn't simply mask them. It's a bright, cleansing blend of Citronella, Lavandin, Lemongrass, Rosemary, Myrtle, and Tea Tree that we use in so many different ways!
Just a Drop of Purification
- Cleanses the air of unwanted odors
- Soothes skin when applied topically
- Supports the respiratory system when applied to the chest and back or diffused
- Helps keep outdoor annoyances at bay
- Freshens musty and stale areas with its clean, invigorating scent
- Makes a great addition to your cleaning routine
Purification essential oil blend is a combination of Citronella, Lavandin, Lemongrass, Myrtle, Rosemary, and Tea Tree that is formulated for diffusing to neutralize and cleanse your home and work environment. It is a favorite addition to our cleaning routine, is good at keeping outdoor annoyances at bay, and is also soothing to your skin for everyday irritations! This is one of our mainstay oils because it is so versatile.
Background
Created by Young Living Founder D. Gary Young, this blend was crafted to purify the air. Purification combines Citronella, Lavandin, Lemongrass, Rosemary Oil, Myrtle, and Tea Tree to uplift and cleanse the atmosphere. The plant sources for these oils come from many exotic and beautiful locations: Lemongrass is native to India, Guatemala, and other tropical countries; and Citronella originated in Sri Lanka. Purification utilizes these natural resources to brighten and freshen any space.
Key Ingredients
- Citronella - Known for its lemony, fresh scent, Citronella is a natural addition to many outdoor candles, insect repellants, and sunscreens to keep the pests at bay! This oil has a purifying aroma that kicks out odors and can also be used in cleaning routines to purify and cleanse your home.
- Lemongrass - Lemongrass is a household staple for many reasons. Its bright, crisp scent brings a smile to your face - it is a literal breath of fresh air that purifies and cleanses. Includes the naturally occurring constituents neral, geranial, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene which have wonderful health properties. It's also great for cleansing the skin!
- Tea Tree - A cleansing oil with a refreshing scent that eliminates odors, this versatile oil can be used for everything from home cleaning solutions to skin care. Tea Tree has been studied for many years for its ability to create an unfriendly environment for yeast, so it's a great addition to the Purification blend.
- Rosemary - This oil has a crisp, invigorating, herbal aroma that is cleansing and purifying. It's a key ingredient in the Thieves blend - our go to for anything cleaning or immune related! Rosemary is wonderful for heart health and helps support the immune and respiratory systems.
- Myrtle - Myrtle is another cleansing oil with purification properties, can be supportive to the thyroid, and helps support the immune system. Myrtle has also been studied for its soothing effects on the respiratory system, and can be used emotionally to process through feelings of deep despair to find hope.
- Lavadin - Closely related to Lavender, Lavandin has a similar aroma, though it is earthier and more cleansing as it has more camphor. This oil is soothing yet more alerting than Lavender and has deodorizing properties, making it a great choice for your beauty or cleaning routines.
Purification & Emotions
Did you know that the body physically stores our emotions? It does!
When we feel an emotion, especially a powerful one and/or one for a long period of time, our firing neurons release chemical messengers to tell our body what's happening. These compounds don't just go away, they get stored. And one place they get stored is the liver!
Our liver is a very important organ. It filters out the blood from our digestive systems as well as detoxifies our bodies from all the things we're exposed to daily - pollutants, chemicals, toxins, etc.
Traditional Chinese Medicine claims that the main emotion associated with the liver is Anger. Other emotions associated with the liver include Feeling Stubborn, Feeling rage, and Resentment. Many eastern practitioners also claim that a low-functioning liver or gallbladder can be due to years of suppressed anger and frustration, and when the anger is finally released it can produce manic behavior. (Hello rage-cleaning!!!)
So what does this mean for our emotions and where essential oils come in?
We can use oils that are supportive of the liver to help our bodies both physically and emotionally. Supporting the liver can help you process emotions and keep your anger in balance. Sometimes it will show you what is beneath the anger, and Purification is one of the best ones for this!
Purification helps with releasing Anger. It helps the body move past this emotion on the spectrum. Anger isn't a “bad” emotion. In fact, it is a very protective one! When we (or our kids) feel like (or do!) act out or explode, it is because we're protecting ourselves from bigger, scarier feelings. Anger is common for kids especially because they haven't learned how to process their emotions. So the next time you or your kids are feeling it, try this:
When you notice you or someone becoming angry or tense, grab Purification and inhale from the bottle, then apply over the liver (lower right abdomen). Verbalize what you're feeling. ‘I'm feeling angry and am going to try and let go of that. Help me think of something silly or funny since laughter is the other side of anger.” The quickest way to move anger through the body is with laughter! Modeling this for your kids helps them be able to do it themselves! If you are alone then you can simply say “I'm feeling angry and am going to try and let go of that.” and think of the funny thing on your own.
This process takes time and practice, but using oils for emotions can be a huge support tool!
Daily Habits with Purification
Use Purification in your home and cleaning routines!
Add to wool dryer balls to give your laundry a bright-smelling boost.

Thieves Dish Soap
When it comes to cleaning products for our homes and families, we want to make sure we have effective but non-toxic options, and the Thieves Home Line from YL is our go-to for all our cleaning needs. For dishwashing (and other great cleaning!) Thieves Dish Soap is tough on the grease and grime, gentle on our hands, and has a fresh, citrus scent - it's the perfect kitchen sink companion!
Why We Love It
- Natural, plant-based ingredients clean dishes without harsh chemical residue
- Tough on grease and grime but gentle enough to use on baby bottles
- Natural cleansing agents decyl glucoside and lauryl glucoside offer a superior clean while being gentle on hands
- Free of sulfates, dyes, phosphates, and synthetic perfumes
- Can also be used as a spot treatment for laundry stains!
- Works wonders with Thieves Household Cleaner to clean almost anything.
If you want a dish soap that cuts the grease, doesn't leave your dishes with a scented residue, and is gentle on your hands, then Thieves Dish Soap is perfect for you! This cleaning powerhouse is free of the typical sulfates, dyes, and synthetics found in many dish soaps, and the plant-based formula leaves no harsh chemical residues - on your dishes or on your skin. The gentle but powerful formula prevents over-drying of skin and will leave your dishes sparkling clean. Plus, a little goes a long way, and this bottle can up your cleaning game in the rest of the house too!
Thieves Dish Soap vs. Conventional OptionsHave you heard the term ‘greenwashing'? It is when companies throw catch phrases or use certain packaging to trick consumers into thinking they are purchasing a natural product, when in reality, what they are buying isn't natural at all. Unfortunately the majority of the ‘natural' cleaning brands out there do this, which is a huge reason we love the Thieves Home products! No phthalates, parabens, bleach, formaldehyde, or toxic chemicals in these products - just the power of plants!
Another thing to note is that alllll those bubbles in your sink aren't actually cleaning your dishes any better. It is a trick called ‘pharmaceutical elegance' that acts as a visual cue to your brain to make you think you're getting a really clean sink of dishes. In reality, it doesn't make a difference. And when you switch to natural cleaning options, there are less bubbles because you're using plants instead of synthetic chemicals!
THE REAL F WORD…
Let's talk about the real “F word” - fragrance. Fragrance is a very loosely defined term when it comes to use in personal care and household products. Fragrance and synthetic perfumes are problematic because companies aren't required to disclose the exact ingredients in the fragrances. Even ‘natural fragrance' is problematic.
Just because something is natural, doesn't mean we want to rub it on our skin (ie: formaldehyde - a naturally occurring compound that we don't want on our skin!). As the world leader in essential oils, Young Living utilizes refreshing scents of the pure essential oils instead of fragrance!
Grab your Thieves Dish Soap and get sparkling clean dishes today!
TO USE
Dispense a small amount of soap with warm running water. Add additional soap as needed. Note: Because this soap uses plant-based surfactants, it will not bubble as much as conventional options. If you really want the extra bubbles, add 2 tsp baking soda directly to the bottle and mix well.
DISH SOAP STAIN REMOVER
- Apply a bit of undiluted dish soap directly to the stained area.
- Rub gently and let sit for a few minutes.
- Repeat if needed, then wash with your Thieves Laundry Soap as usual!
THIEVES THE DAY SHOWER BRUSH
- Thieves Household Cleaner
- Thieves Dish Soap
- Dispensing dish brush
- Fill your brush with half cleaner and half soap. Use to scrub your shower every time you get in!

EssentialZyme Supplement Spotlight
We've all heard how important digestive health is for overall wellness, and most recently more information has been discovered about how digestion affects immunity, mood and essentially all body systems. Because it's so important, we want to support digestion well and one way to do that daily is with enzyme supplements.EssentialZyme is a bilayered, multienzyme complex caplet specially formulated to support and balance digestive health and to stimulate overall enzyme activity to combat the modern diet. EssentialZyme contains tarragon, peppermint, anise, fennel, and clove essential oils to improve overall enzyme activity, and support healthy pancreatic function.
ESSENTIALZYME AT A GLANCE
- Stimulates overall enzyme activity
- Supports and balances digestive health
- Supports healthy pancreatic function
- Assists the body in breaking down and digesting food
Why do we need enzymes?? Enzymes are protein molecules that are manufactured by all plant and animal cells and are required for our cells to function! Enzymes support all systems in the body:
- Digestion - Enzymes break down food so that the body can digest it.
- Metabolism - Enzymes help properly metabolize the food so that the body can use the nutrients from the food.
- Respiration - Enzymes assist in getting oxygen where it is needed.
- Nutrient absorption and transportation – Enzymes help the nutrients get to where they are needed.
- Detoxification - Enzymes keep toxic sludge from building up in the body.
- Muscle movement - Enzymes assist in helping the brain communicate with the muscles.
- Hormone production - Enzymes assist in helping the body produce hormones that in turn keep the body functioning.
- Cell Repair - Enzymes assist in repairing cells which can lead to youthful skin.
- Cell division - Enzymes help keep cell division at a normal, healthy rate.
EssentialZyme contains a unique blend of enzymes such as pancrelipase and pancreatin that are known to assist the body in breaking down and digesting food, as well as Tarragon, Peppermint, Anise, Fennel, and Clove premium essential oils to improve overall enzyme activity and support healthy pancreatic function.
TO USE
Take 1 dual time-release caplet 1 hour before your largest meal of the day for best results.
What's the difference between EssentialZyme and EssentialZyme-4?
- EssentialZyme specifically supports the pancreas containing pancrelipase and pancreatin. These enzymes are to be taken once a day before your largest meal.
- EssentialZyme-4 is a set of two dual enzyme capsules infused with Ginger, Fennel, Tarragon, and Anise premium essential oils. The plant-based enzymes are designed to release immediately upon entering the stomach, where the environment is conducive to the digestion of plant material. The animal-based enzymes are designed to target release in the lower intestine region, where the environment is better suited for the digestion of animal fats and proteins. In combination, these two capsules aid in the digestion of dietary fats, proteins, fiber, and carbohydrates for optimal nutrient absorption. These enzymes are to be taken with your two largest meals of the day.
