Thyme Essential Oil

Freshen and sanitize your space with Thyme Essential Oil. Also known as Garden Thyme or Common Thyme, you may already be familiar with this aroma from your spice cabinet or herb garden. When concentrated as an essential oil, Thyme offers powerful benefits for home remedies, aromatherapy, cleaning, and more.

Thanks to a natural plant compound called thymol, Thyme essential oil promotes healing and relieves inflammation, pain, discomfort, and joint stiffness. It’s also antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal. Using Thyme oil in home cleaning products will help lift hard-to-remove grease stains, sticky residues, and deep grime while leaving behind a fresh scent that uplifts.

The scent of Thyme is strong, fresh, and herbal. It promotes mental clarity, focus, confidence, and courage while helping you release anxiety and self-doubt. When used for aromatherapy, Thyme can inspire you to see the world with greater clarity and let go of anything that isn’t serving you. 

While humans love this aroma, pesky bugs like mosquitoes and flies can’t stand it. This makes Thyme oil an effective natural insect repellent that’s free from DEET and other harmful chemicals. Try diffusing Thyme on your patio to keep bugs from biting, or sprinkle it around doorways and windowsills to create a natural barrier that keeps critters outside where they belong.
