Fall leaves, Cooler Temperatures, and ......Colds....
Aaaa...Choo!!  Ah, the sounds of Autumn!  

Now that the kids are back in school, and people are back to work after summer vacation, we inevitably see  more people getting sick with colds and flu.  It happens every year, and once one child comes home with a bug, it tends to run rampant through the household, unfortunately.   

I’m sitting here this morning with Thieves going in my diffuser.   I’ve been diffusing Thieves for a few days in a row now, almost subconsciously.  I usually pick different oils to put in my diffuser every day, but it’s been Thieves all day, everyday for the last little while.  

I guess I associate the aroma with fall.  It’s a beautiful blend of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon,  Eucalyptus Radiata and Rosemary. 

Let’s break it down.
