Benefits to the oils this blend contains:-

Clove Bud essential oil potentially helps to cleanse the air and environment. A 2018 study looked at the effects of essential oils on bacteria that can cause respiratory infections. Although antibiotics were shown to be far more effective, clove oil did have antibacterial activity when used as a vapour.

Rosemary essential oil a popular oil which has long been associated with a number of healing and remedial qualities.

Lemon essential oil is an incredibly popular cleaning oil and can help to keep our homes safe and hygienic.

Cinnamon (bark) essential oil is a natural cleanser. Used in a diffuser such as our EcoPod it may help fight the symptoms of sore throats, coughs, and colds. Diffuse this spicy-scented oil and allow its antibacterial properties to fight the infection, while the relaxing effects should help you to breathe easy and get some much-needed rest.

Eucalyptus essential oil has a strong, fresh fragrance it is thought to have cleansing and grounding properties and also many believe this essential oil to have healing, antiseptic, and antibacterial properties, so it’s been used to treat everything from minor colds to the symptoms of asthma (alongside your regular treatment not to replace).

Red thyme essential oil believed to have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal properties. Thyme oil is also thought to have antispasmodic elements, so it’s frequently diffused by those with coughs and colds.

Coriander essential oil may help fights bacteria and thanks also to its antispasmodic properties, coriander is often used to tackle coughs.

Why we’ve blended these oils together is to harness these therapeutic properties in the best way we have found to boost the benefits and to create our version of a blend that is often associated with a tale of four young men, who also happened to be thieves…

The Legend of Four Young Thieves: 

The Black Plague struck Europe and Asia in the mid-1300s. Thousands of people died due to this global epidemic of Bubonic Plague, and those alive were very ill, it affected all-the old, young, rich and poor alike, plunging the world into fear and dread.  

Legend has it, that four young thieves whose parents were herbalists would go out and rob the homes and graves of the dead, exposing themselves to the Plague but never getting sick, this was reportedly due to a blend of essential oils and herbs soaked into a piece of cloth and maybe worn around the nose and mouth.

However, as this tale of four thieves occurred hundreds of years ago, it is difficult to check the facts and ascertain the truth. Still, herbs and essential oils have stood the test of time because of their multiple therapeutic benefits for the skin, body, and mind.

Many people swear a blend of essential oils, usually these are agreed as including clove bud, lemon, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus, & rosemary essential oils (we also add thyme and coriander essential oils), is a protection to their health and use it for cleaning the home, by diluting it in water, and in cleansing the air with electric air diffusers and in many other ways too… (some also injest-adding a drop a day to food-however we strongly feel that this shouldn’t be done and definitely do not advise you do this with our oils), we feel aromatherapy should be just that, used for its therapeutic aroma! In this cleansing powder, we mix these powerful essential oils with bicarbonate of soda to help make it even more versatile around the home.

We advise that you do not use if you are pregnant, have a cat, or a crawling toddler under 2years of age. As natural does not mean the the powder is completely safe for children or pets especially if eaten.
