Once I started I haven't looked back.
I know what you mean about all the toxic chemicals in stuff. I have some health problems and sensitivities so I try to keep toxins in my home to a minimum.
I've looked up recipes for Thieves oil. There are a bunch of them and I'm never sure which ones are really good ones and comparable to Young Living's recipe (everyone seems to claim there's is the real recipe). I like Young Living's essential oils for many reasons and by the time I buy all the oils and take the time to mix them up and everything, I'm not really saving enough to make it worthwhile. Also, Young Living makes cleaners with Thieves in them that are excellent so I just buy the products already made and use them. It simplifies my life.
